You can learn so much about a student in a 30 minute trial lesson! If a new student is not a total beginner, I will ask them to play their favorite song (or one of their favorites if they have trouble choosing just one).

If they arent able to see their strengths on their own then I share with them what I think their strengths are and encourage them to keep that up. Read More
