One week after starting CTplus ABRSM Course

Indeed I am having fun teaching, students having fun learning.

Beside fun, my lessons are now more exciting.

Today I was teaching an adult student. She hardly practise. Today she revealed again that the grade 5 piece is not difficult but she did not practise much. I decide to let her play sight reading in the key of the piece which is E minor. She played quite well.

We proceed to a simple song in the More Romantic Pieces Book I and she played quite well though a little lacking in expression. There I found a way to enrich our lesson . Every one or 2 lesson , our focus will be on a piece of simple music she can play studying it for 3 minutes and we will evolve learning around that music.

This is so much better than to try to get her to practise a piece which we almost never get things done.
