I was lucky enough to be assigned to Mrs. Matovinovic for piano lessons for our first summer at Interlochen in 1977. I studied with her during the next three summers and kept in touch with her after that. She was an amazing, inspirational teacher who had a big impact on me. Because of her, I began to practice the piano at age ten and take it seriously.
Thank you very much, Mrs. Matovinovic.

You are remembered, always.

It has been one year since Mrs. Matovinovic, our dearest piano teacher left us. She left us with a deep hole that can never be filled.
Mrs. Matovinovic was the only piano teacher to our three children, Vicky, Yanson, and Carey. She had been teaching all of them till she wasn't physically capable to teach. We know that Mrs. Matovinovic loved our oldest daughter but wanted to kick out the other two occasionally, but she kept all of them regardless.
I still remember the first time we met with her. Knowing nothing about her, I asked for references and embarrassed myself badly. She showed me binders piled up to two feet tall, all were the concerts she played. We actually clicked instantaneously before she even pointed the pile to me. Mrs. Matovinovic didn't agree to take Vicky immediately because she wanted to make sure that Vicky really loves piano and has some talent. To her, excellence is not a goal, but a norm. We all try to follow suit.
Mrs. Matovinovic is not the kind of teacher who gives empty praises. She is kind and generous yet harsh and straightforward. One has to work really hard to win her compliments and thus reaches her/his full potential. She is truly a teacher, a teacher who not only teaches piano, but also teaches her students to be better persons.
We will miss her forever.
