A rewarding second lesson

This week speed by so swiftly...

There is a student that motivates me much this week.
An adult student whom just had two lessons.

This week I introduced her to a piano method book. I was sharing with her that I planned to teach her some familiar tunes like Bach's Minuet in G. I played the melody and she started to learn that piece observing my fingers on the piano. And that was how the lesson began.

She managed to play 4 bars with LH accompaniment of block chords. She even went home to search on YouTube .

Many musiciAns play by ear. Teachers should at times play by ear. Whatever lesson plan was done, teachers can teach according to Student's interest.

That lesson went on to some history on baroque, note values, time signature, key signature and even patterns. It was a rewarding lesson.
