What I Learned… I learned the top ten colleges for music. I also learned that the top two are in New York City, close to home which is important to me. The top college, The Julliard School also offers dance courses, which would be perfect for me. My family always jokes because all I want to do when I’m older is dance and play violin. My dad is always saying that he sees me going to a performing arts college.

More… I still want to do this job. In addition to this job I would like to teach dance at June Claire. I have been dancing there since I was three and am now student teaching. I enjoy dancing and teaching little girls how to dance.
