Trey! Thank you very much for sharing your teaching experience with us!

I think, it is time to ask to play Hanon using both hands! Kristos has to watch the pictures (they suppose to be the same!)

Solfege: Do, Re, Mi is good; we're still working on Do, Ti, La.


Yes, saying the same notes backwards always is a challenge for young beginners. But since music notes run freely, it is a very valuable skill to learn! ;)

Introduced dictation.


Could you, please, explain in more details?

Score is good for this age any way! Do you think, we miss motivation here? Maybe, we have to offer young man 'music money' for every additional point?

Hot Cross Buns

1 - R - 26/26 - 20
1 - L - 16/16 - 7
1 - P - 42/42 - 57
2 - R - 25/26 - 29
2 - L - 16/16 - 7
2 - P - 42/42 - 43
3 - R - 25/26 - 39
3 - L - 16/16 - 3
3 - P - 42/42 - 45


It seems like playing with both hands needs some improvement. I am confused here: what your numbers 1, 2 and 3 at the beginning of each line mean?

Solo Flight (new piece)

1 - R - 20/22 - 40
1 - L - 16/16 - 17
1 - P - 37/38 - 45


What Album is that?

Back to the Mozart

I played Hot Cross Buns and asked him to make marks on a piece of paper for each note; then went back and asked him to identify and mark the long notes.
