Summer Plans
My hope is to continue teaching regularly through the summer. I have only a handful of students, all beginners. I don't want them to take a summer off and lose what they've learned (or lose them as a student!). One family is taking a month long vacation, but will start again in August. And I am hoping to do longer lessons with a couple of my advancing students. I hope to take a bit of time to catch up on some things that get overlooked during the regular year, including composition and notation with one student, and playing lead sheets with another. I've started on their theory for next year already so we can learn it gradually, and soon it will be time to pick out duets to polish for the Ensemble Festival in the fall. Hopefully I can slow down for a bit though and look for what doors the student opens during the lesson!
