Several teachers have expressed concern over prospective students
already having their phone number and address when contacting them
about lessons - apparently having received this information from
another MTAC teacher. Please refer students to our website, http://www.sandiegomtac.com/,
if they are in need of a referral to another teacher. There they
can send an email to any teacher via our server, which does not
reveal the teacher's email. Please protect your colleagues' privacy!
The MTAC directory is intended for the use of members only. The
information should not be shared with businesses of any kind or
non-members, nor should it be used by members for promoting their
own businesses. When you discard your old directories, shredding

I am Mrs Daniela Bishop
from Scotland. My daughter will be coming for an holiday in USA
for 6 weeks. I will want her to engage in something that will keep
her busy all the time, Because Kristina is a bit playful and I will
not want her to play away her time when she arrives in the State.
I guess coming to your place for private lessons can keep her hooked
up with something. It can be any kind of lesson. You just get back
to me with the cost for private lesson in your home for
6 weeks. I have someone that can drive her to your place for the
lesson and take her back to the home stay after the lesson. Just
get back to me with the total cost of the lesson so my husband can
make payment to you immediately before he go on a business trip
and Kristina is 15 years old, she a beginner and she fluent in English.
Reply me with the total
cost for 18 days tutor (1 hr daily, 3 days in a week at your convenient
time) |

The new Ronald McDonald House at Rady Children's Hospital here
in San Diego is a place for the families of critically ill children
to stay while their child undergoes treatment at children's hospital.
A generous donor has provided a wonderful Yamaha grand piano for
the lobby area, and they are looking for people to play it. The
time they are most interested in having music is from 6:00 pm -
7:30 pm - this is the dinner hour and is the time when the most
families are at the Ronald McDonald House.
Due to concerns about the flu in general and H1N1 specifically,
at present pianists must be at least 16 years old to perform.
If you are interested in serving in this way, please contact Kerrina
