RANDOMNESS on a saturday
Saturday equals to a day of tuition,
well, not me having tuition but me giving tuition, which is piano lesson to my student Averyl(:
teaching seem to have got a little easier after i started buying stuff for her on a regular basis, increasing class timing allowing us to have longer time to teach, learn and gossip about stuffs too(:
this is the first time i talk so much about my piano teaching.
Its going to be two years into piano teaching already, and this two years it was filled with gladness, satisfaction, anguish and sometimes doubt. doubtful as there were times i was afraid that i might teach the wrong things. but thanks for people like ms chan and mr leung who i could turn to in times of doubt.
by teaching, i really learnt how is it like to be a teacher and how bad i was as a student. =P hahas.
i also gained really some valuable experience on how to deal with people and how to even deal with kids and parents (but i must say that aunty audrey, averyl's mummy, is a really nice and accommodating lady!(: )
last saturday, averyl came to my house for piano lesson. she was really enthusiastic now in playing her exam pieces for me!(: esp her T rex song!
like every other ordinary student, she dreads learning new scales. i taught her how to play C major broken chords. well, she wasnt used to it as compared to the normal ascending and descending scales, but i coax her by saying that i would give her sweets and stuff and she played the scale with a more cheerful spirit.
children....
hahas, but i showed her the pattern involved in this scale which was the breaking down of the tonic triad. she was then interested and tried it once again and thought it was easy.... hahas!
after lesson, i took out my santa's hat and played with averyl and aiden,
and...
