In an effort to help my students realize that they are learning something very important, I have a somewhat different approach to teaching piano. Those that have had lessons with me before, or who are now know that I do not use books. I feel that when I was in lessons if I had to play songs out of a book I would have felt less excited about getting new songs, and less motivated to practice. So my old piano teacher helped me come up with several of the songs that would help to create our very own levels. Now, we have our own program, and if you don't believe it works come out to the next recital :). All in all, I know that the reason these students do so well is because they work so hard in practicing. This is essential to their growth, and I feel that they are more excited to practice when they are treated like adults. Adults don't play out of books with pictures of clowns in them haha. I absolutely love teaching your children, and I am so grateful for how well they are all progressing. Keep practicing, it pays off believe me!
Don't miss out! This will be one of the coolest recitals ever seen :). Your children are working hard to get their songs prepared. Please come and sing along with us as we celebrate and rejoice in our Savior Jesus Christ.
