... Vos élèves sont bien chanceux de côtoyer un professeur tel que vous, toute remplie de sens artistique et d'un toucher presque céleste. Je me rappelle avec bonheur la beauté de votre interprétation en admirant la saveur de votre touche si captivante, parfois j'en étais très émue ...
... Votre carrière d'enseignante est merveilleuse car vous faites entrer vos élèves dans le domaine de la vraie beauté qui est de nature à provoquer l'élévation de l'esprit et du coeur vers les splendeurs des oeuvres d'art ...
M. Cécile-Romaine, Montreal
... I have reports from the students who all seem very pleased to work with you. Thank you for taking such care of the students ...

... I can't begin to thank you enough for all you've done for me this year. You are the first teacher who has been able to help me with my "problem" - and that takes a great deal of patience! You are, without a doubt, one of the greatest teachers around this neck of the woods! Thanks!
S. Farrell, Toronto
... Thank you very much for such a pleasant year at the piano!! I can't tell you how much I have learned, how pleased it has made me to be able to play fast - and with confidence, and how nice it is to play in a positive atmosphere.
B. Densen, Toronto
... Thank you for helping me become aware of the beauty and the possibilities in music ...
A. Rovazzi, Toronto
... Je tenais à vous dire que à la fois en tant que personne d'une grande valeur et qu'artiste accomplie vous avez profondément marqué ma petite existence. Votre patience et votre discipline sont des exemples que je m'efforcerai toujous de suivre.
N. Desrochers, Ottawa
... The weeks that I spent with you rewarded me in a great many ways. You really made me realize that being a great musician takes hours of hard work, devotion and, of course, self-dedication. I think that the thing I shall remember most was the way in which I found it so easy to communicate with you. Your ideas and methods of creating beautiful phrases really made sense. Thank you so very much!

"Ms. Lawton always addresses the fundamental problems and elements of the music and the technique. This empowers students to evolve and to re-think their approach in the long term, far beyond the limited time frame of the course. Independence, imagination and creativity are thus enhanced. Ms. Lawton achieves a climate of positive concentration and intensity which I have rarely experienced in this combination. I greatly enjoyed working with her and knowing her both as a person and as a musician."
T. Guschmann, Munich
"Ms. Lawton teaches without any self-promotion and wastes no time on empty generalities. She always keeps the atmosphere free of negative pressure; students can appreciate and apply immediately what they learned."
W. Häring, Berlin
"Ms. Lawton's teaching strikes a balance of patience and exigency. She is able to reach every student she teaches, through her balance of humor and intensity, demand, encouragement and insistence on what she wants to hear and what she wants to make the student hear. The main focus is always on the music. Musical, intellectual and technical aspects are well balanced."
J. Pujol, Salzburg
"I particularly appreciated Ms. Lawton's sensitivity not only to the finest aspects of the music, but also to the personality and needs of every individual student. I gained clear insights into technical and musical problems and, especially, their solutions."
M. Malis, Berlin
"... Thank you for inspiring me to quest for transcendence. This masterclass has been a great experience for me. I hope to become a musician who performs with spirit. Thank you so much!"
G. H. Kim, Toronto
"... I really thank you for what you have done for me and us. I will never forget this experience and feel like I started a long jouney to become a musician. Thanks again!"
