Many of my students have chosen to participate in the AIM (Achievement in Music) program, sponsored by the Utah Music Teachers Association. It non-competitive. Students are evaluated in the areas of performance, technique, sight-reading, theory and ear training. They progress though ten different levels and receive written feedback from trained adjudicators, as well as a certificate and medal for each level they pass. This feedback is a valuable asset in their training, guiding their further study and progress.
