My student decided to stick it out after all! At least until he gets his Grade 8, since he knows he can get a couple of additional high school credits through RCM exams (Grade 6 and Grade 8 RCM count as high school credits). Doing the Grade 4 is for him to get a feel for them, as he has never done one before. (There is no way he can drop the RCM exam at this point) It was the case that he enjoys private lessons, but thought he did not have time for them anymore.
He's found another piece that I'm working on that he'd like to learn one day the first movement of the Grand Duo Concertant...
He was also told that two of my other students which he knows both of them (one who is a year younger than him, the other 3 1/2 years older) take lessons on more than one instrument! He is taking lessons on an every other week basis, and is being expected to practice an hour a day, 5 days per week. He decided he would drop school band, because it’s boring for him (quite some time before told me that “the seniors know almost nothing about the clarinet”). He agreed to limit video game playing to weekends, and only after he has done his homework and practicing.
