New Student Results
The meeting went well today, I am very excited to begin teaching a new student! She is very enthusiastic and has her parents' support. I decided on the Faber Primer & Theory books, as I had extra copies on hand, and also I hope to try out their new sight reading book which can be started about half way through the lesson book. She seems to have a diligent spirit and understands she must practice to improve. I put that a little more directly to her as an individual student this time, asking her how much time she thought she could practice in a week. She asked if a half hour a day was enough! :) (If I could get some of my students to practice 1/3 of that I'd be happy... they'd be happier too!) Mom chimed in offering a particular time in the evening she would have available. I look forward to seeing what the future holds for this sweet young lady.
