Missy Wood, who
graduated from Palm Beach Atlantic University with a
Bachelor of Music, has been a professional musician and
teacher in the South Florida area for 4 years.
I am writing on behalf of
Missy Wood. I have had the great pleasure of knowing Missy
for the last three years as her voice teacher at Palm Beach
Atlantic University in West Palm Beach, Florida. Missy is
a very gifted singer and musician who also has fine piano
skills and is quite accomplished on the harp as well.
I also had Missy in my Studio
class, Women's Chorale, and Vocal Pedagogy where I had several
occasions to watch her teach. She is a natural teacher with
abilities far beyond her years to impart musical knowledge
to others while making it a great deal of fun to learn as
well. She has been an excellent student in all areas of the
musical discipline and has set an example of maturity and
work ethic that is quite high for her fellow students.
In 26 years of teaching
college, I have had few students who performed and learned
at the level that Missy does all the while being very respectful
and conscientious in all her dealings with faculty and friends.
She is vivacious and her enthusiasm for music and life in
general, is contagious. She will be a tremendous asset to
your program. It is a great pleasure to give her my highest
recommendation.
