Prior to that Rashitha had 15 years experience teaching all ages from 4 - 11 years old, in Perth, Auckland and London. She holds a BA in Primary Education with a Major in Music.

She is the mother of two gorgeous boys who have both attended Music Together classes.

It brings her great joy to see musical behaviours in the children she teaches and she absolutely loves the community experience of the program.

Amy came to Music Together as a parent in 2023 with her 1.5  year old daughter. She quickly found that weekly Music Together classes were a space for enjoying her own musical creativity as well as having fun and connecting with her child and other families. Her love and appreciation for Music Together's research-based program has only grown since completing the teacher training, in particular, that children are experiencing music-making in a very natural way through the adults around them.

Amy is a lifelong music-lover: from early memories of her music teacher mother teaching piano at home, school choir and singing on long car rides, to learning swing dancing as an adult and attending music events around the world while working overseas as an engineer (USA, Korea, Canada). She is passionate about live music and loves to seek out music and cultural events whenever possible to enjoy with family and friends.

Amy loves connecting with other parents and their children, and sharing the joy of making music together.

Elizabeth has been making music since childhood. Her grandfather was a professional pianist and chorist, her mother a piano teacher and choir master.

Having grown up in Western Australia she lived in Montreal for 14 years, where she completed a Bachelor of Music Performance in clarinet at Concordia University. She has since performed and toured across Canada and in Australia, Mexico, Japan and South East Asia.

In 2023 she returned to Perth to raise her family. She joined the Music Together community as a participant with her kids and was instantly taken with the rich musical experience it provided.

She has come to appreciate how music-making supports our children’s development in so many ways from social-emotional, cognitive, language, and physical, in addition to building bonds with caregivers and creating community.

She can’t wait to meet you and your family in class !
