Paul - 6 y.o. was created by marianaccruz
Paul is Estonian and Portuguese, living in Estonia since birth, who enjoys making his own music, singing, playing many instruments (real and imaginary), but also machines, riding his bike and dismantling every object.
Paul has been in contact with the software since he was very young. This year, I decided to start following the curriculum with him. By then, he was already familiar with the piano, the music notes and the software, understanding triads intuitively and with quite an accurate musical hearing, being able to play simple melodies by ear.
Now, we are using charts, where he writes down his scores and times, tracking his evolution. I also use music money (some homemade banknotes with Mozart's face on them) as a reward when they finish an assignment.
He uses the software independently every day, and he spends a lot of time playing his favourite sheets with one hand - usually the left hand. 
While I am insisting with him to play simpler songs with both hands, I also see his interest is much higher for these challenging pieces. So, I balance his enthusiasm with some hand posture exercises (which enable him to play faster and smoother), and invite him to sing the notes from the right hand while playing the left hand.
