" ...Thanks again, for being the wonderfully talented and patient man you are. I appreciate you instructing T. without the stress of achieving specific levels in specific periods of time. She loves her music lessons with you. I know because she has to re-choose each year and she always wants to return. So thank you again. I am glad we connected with you in this life." Bernardine B.

"Hello Yanik, Thank you for this experience and most of all for both A. and I being able to be in a performance on stage together. You made a dream of mine a reality and I want to sincerely thank you for this... Thanks again for a great experience for both of us." H. R.

" ...Yanik, I just wanted to thank you for all your help with N. and all the efforts you put into the arts community. On this snow day I wanted to share the success of children who are passionate about the arts and are supported by talented teachers in Victoria! ... Many thanks" S.

"Hey Yanik, I just wanted to thank you so much for all your help today! ... I can't tell you how much I appreciate you being honest with me when I asked about my song choice so thanks again! I learned a lot at the workshop today and had so much fun at the same time! This has been one of the best performing experiences I have ever had (Island Star Search) and no matter what the results are I am so glad that I did this :)" Cati L.

"Bonjour. Je voudrais te remercier du fond du coeur pour ta gentillesse et le coup de pouce que tu m'as donné. Tu m'as ouvert une porte qui m'était demeurée close jusqu'ici. Sans tes conseils et ton appui, je n'aurais pas suivi les notes plus haut, plus haut." Nikki B.

"Hi Yanik, It will feel strange not to be registering for the fall, but as you know, M. is off to University at the end of August... You have been a wonderful teacher and mentor for her, and I am very grateful for all you have done for her. I know she will never, ever forget you! Kind regards" Sharon G.

"Thank you for all your hard work, Yanik, for negotiating with Trinity College, for securing the venue, for ensuring the day went smoothly for the students, for supporting C. and preparing her for this challenging exam. You are amazing, a real treasure and very much appreciated. You should be very proud of your accomplishments today. Again, thank you Sooooo Much!!" L. P.

"... I love your casual approach to recitals. I have participated in too many uptight concerts, and really appreciate it when a teacher can relax and enjoy the entertainment... Anyway, thanks for being such a great teacher!" M. B.
