After this point, I introduce chords and scales and more advanced songs, in order to further develop the student's playing and reading capabilities. From this point, I try to incorporate the student's personal musical interests into their lessons, fusing their own interests with methods of further developing their technical capabilities.

Building early repoire between teacher and student is crucial to building a working knowledge for performing music later on. Read More
