#10 Kids learn to play "ensemble" (all together) - SO great for timing, playing in a band and for remembering to keep going even if you make a mistake!

#9. My students are SO great at playing in front of people because they are used to playing for small groups in class!

#8. Enthusiasm is contagious - my classes are enthusiastic!

#7 Parent’s learn right along with their kids - that means kids don’t practice wrong all week and come back disappointed!

#6. Composition is introduced - so cool!

#5. Rhythm ensembles sound SO good and we learn to play rhythm instruments and practice our timing!

#4. Class and practicing provides a special time for parents and their kids!

#3. Kids generally learn more in the course of a year than in a year of private lessons (they have to keep up with the class in MYC)!

#2. We play games to reinforce concepts - fabulous!

#1. I love teaching and I love all of you - my students (& parents)!
