 Re: Lessons -- As a Learner or as a Teacher

Hi Susan:

I take a one hour lesson every three weeks.

The beginning of the lesson always starts with me playing a more difficult piece (usually a song) for my teacher as he listens/watches me. My teacher then comments, plays it his way, and I try to mimic and sound like him. A good 20 minutes is spent doing just that going back and forth.

Next, we always have to play a duet together to make sure I'm in tune.

I learn at least one new thing every lesson and and usually have one bad habit to break until the next lesson.

My teacher always makes me focus on two more difficult pieces for the next lesson and a new duet (both lines).

I would say it's a good 30 minutes of chat, 20 minutes of playing, and 10 minutes of messing with reeds.
