This ability to adapt to her students’ diversity makes her a valuable resource to promoting music in learners of any skill. Her great passion for music instilled music appreciation within her pupils.”

“I felt like Vanessa was very knowledgeable about the clarinet and she offered many solutions to potential problems. I never felt like she was upset if I didn't understand something and needed her to explain the concept in a different way. She was very positive and accommodating when I was going through a rough time. She held high standards, but she never made me feel like I was a terrible player. Vanessa organized lessons efficiently and I enjoyed having a nice structure to my weekly clarinet lessons.”

“Vanessa provided excellent instruction and laid the groundwork for how I practice the clarinet in college to this day.”

“Even through Zoom, Dr. Klassen was able to identify problems, and was quick to provide solutions to help me progress as a player. She always had a plan for each of my lessons going into them, and knew what I needed help on. She always pushed for me to be the best player that I could be, and would prioritize her students and their needs. My lessons were always engaging, and I would leave my lessons learning something new, as well as knowing what I need to work on for the week. Dr. Klassen has such a huge dedication and passion for music and the clarinet, as well as a very strong and admirable work ethic.”
