  Review of Susan Sigge, March 07, 2009

  I've had the pleasure of knowing Susan Sigge for many years, and have heard her play many times, and observe her teaching style with a large group of flutists. Susan has a gift for teaching - she makes it look effortless. Her style is gentle but firm, and she draws out the best in her students, by example and encouragement.
  Indeed, Susan has by osmosis taught me some skills in other seemingly unrelated areas - using the same ethic with which she approaches her music - discipline, practise, excellent aesthetics and lifelong learning.

  Review of Susan Sigge, January 13, 2009

  It was also good for me to have Susan teaching me because it was fun for me to go to my lessons. Even though my past teachers were good, there were some days when I didn’t look forward to going to the lessons, or days when I didn’t prepare for lessons since I wasn’t motivated enough… and I know that’s not their fault, but I also know that each lesson I had with Susan I went in looking forward to it and left happy and left feeling like I had really learned something. It was nice being motivated again with music and having fun in the process. I had to get ready for an audition in a short period of time and I was accepted to the school I applied to and I know my lessons helped me with having a successful audition.

  Review of Susan Sigge, December 08, 2008

  Susan had taught my son for over 8 years. When he started with her he was a shy, 11 year old beginner flutist. Over the years she used her considerable teaching skills and instructive insights to help him become a confident, talented performer. He was first chair in his high school band, second chair in County Honor Band, participated in and won awards in many scholarship competitions, was invited to perform in Master classes, like the Galway Master class that was held the summer of 2007, and passed the Advanced Level of the Certificate of Merit exams that are given each year. None of this would have been accomplished without Susan's tireless dedication to teaching my son and her other students, students who were an inspiration to my son when he first started, students who developed into such fine musicians that they chose music as a major in college. Susan's not only a great teacher, she's a powerful role model, she passes on her considerable love for the flute, and if your lucky you can hear her play in local venue's, she's a very accomplished flutist herself.

  Susan Sigge is an excellent flute teacher and music educator in general. I started taking lessons with her my senior year of high school and continued for a year. Not only did she improve my flute playing and technique, she also improved my overall musicality. Her approach and teaching style is superb and very easy to follow. Without having Susan as my teacher, I wouldn't have been able to be so successful in my flute playing and other musical activities.

  Review of Susan Sigge, November 22, 2008

  I'm nine and Susan makes it easy to learn. She encourages me when I make mistakes, and I always feel confident that I will get better. My school music teacher put on my report card that I'm one of the best flute students, and I know it was because of Susan. Also, my mom likes that she helped us get prepared for my first lesson and uses email to communicate.
