hello!
I have recently started out my "real life after college", and am a private teacher (which I love) BUT - I am having a really difficult time finding a beginner method book that is, well, any good at all. Rubank is too boring for kids (and adults) and the band methods don't have enough techinique and the songs are too short (so it's difficult to build indurance.) Also, I have a number of students who aren't in the school band. Others are too "cheesy" for 12 yr olds. Klose works for the more astute students...I could go on, but, any advice anyone may have would be very much appriciated!! Right now I just piece together things, which Is good for instruciton, but bad for my time!
Thanks!
