Hilliard music teacher recognized for hitting all the right notes as Academy Vibe instructor
Call him a working man who loves his job.
For the past six years, Phil Nagy, a teacher whose love for music began with his parents and grew while listening to the Canadian prog-rock group Rush, has worked to instill that same appreciation in each student in the Academy Vibe classes he instructs at the Hilliard City Schools Innovation Campus.
For that effort, the Yamaha Corp., a manufacturer of pianos and other musical instruments, has recognized Nagy as one of its “40 Under 40 for excellence in music education.
