I feel the two most important aspects of teaching for both the student and the teacher are repitition and patience.

My greatest lesson in teaching is that no two students are alike; one student may be more traditional and focused and have no problem learning to read music, for example, while another student may have little to no attention span, making it impossible to learn consistently.
