"My son only started working with Mr. Rashkin at the beginning of his Senior year in 2022 and he will be attending Eastman School of Music in the Fall of 2023. Mr. Rashkin was an integral part in my son’s acceptance to Eastman. He also received a prestigious music scholarship that can be used towards his studies."

"Phil's teaching was well-rounded and child-centered, by remixing contemporary and classical music to help my daughter reflect and make meaning. As a parent and educator myself, I admire that Phil blends inquiry-based, affirming approaches into his joyful teaching of the next generation of music lovers!"

Helpful Info

To submit an arts supplement, musicians will need to present 2-3 videos of their playing. Most colleges will also allow you to submit a resume and a letter of recommendation. A few schools will ask for additional supplemental essays. This program highlights winning examples from my students for each part of the supplement.
