Students get to learn the basics like Mary had a little lamb, hot cross buns, jingle bells, and other fun tunes.

For beginning students both children and adults, I typically start with Bruce Pearson's Standard of Excellence books. Once my younger students have progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I begin to introduce solo repertoire that is appropriate for their first recital performance.
