My part-time job/I love music♪ I have worked for a piano school as a piano teacher(My occupation is a student of the university). After graduating my high school,I started working there. My mother is also a piano teacher.She expected me to play the piano so I have learned how to play the piano since I was 3 years old. To tell the truth,I didn't like playing the piano when I was at an elementary school.I was always compared with my mother's ability of playing.She always told me that she could play the piano well when she was the same age as me.That's why I thought I wanted to be absent of the lesson.However,she was very strict to me.That's why I couldn't do that. One day,I participated in the piano contest when I was 6 years old.I was really nervous and worried about my turn.And I felt the pressure.As a result,I did it well and got the prize from the master of that contest.I was really happy and got confidence.I realized my feeling that I like playing the piano and want to be a good pianist.My mother said to me,"the reason why I was strict to you is to encourage you to be a good pianist".I really appreciated her attitude so far. During my high school days,I was at a loss whether to choose a music college or a normal university.I was aware of the difficulty in being the top of pianists.My mother said to me,"You can choose the way to play the piano as a piano teacher like me,not a pianist".Though she hoped her daughter would be a good pianist,she advised me to choose the other way like that.I was shocked to hear that for the first time.However,I also felt my limit of the dream.Finally I gave up it. Sometimes I felt regrettable,but I can keep on playing the piano as a piano teacher now.And I could open the new door except playing the piano by choosing other department in the university.It is precious experience. I hope I keep playing the piano and give my students the spirits to love music.Actually,I always receive the great experience/expression from my students through my job. I really appreciate my mother,all of my piano teachers and students. I try to become a good piano teacher(but I'm an university student,so my job is part-time...hahaha).

kudos to you and to your mom. She had a hard time just to make sure that you will be as great pianist as her. Just follow your dream because what your mind can conceive, your body can achieve.
