Foster a desire to share music and knowledge with others The path to get there varies widely based on a student's experience, areas of interest, and focus! Everyone learns and improves at their own pace, particularly when it comes to something as personal as music - for this reason I set goals at the individual level, so that my students are not put in the position of measuring their unique progress with a rigid, arbitrary benchmark.
