Question is that how to figure out the music 2 times/3 times -- one task in Ear Training. Melody was listening to the chord 1 sofeggio but not getting it, I don't knowing how to make her get the concept of 2/3 times by just listening to it. Is there a way? Or I will first make her listen more typical music like "the blue Danube river" and etc and till she feels it.

Also, another thing I noticed that when Melody play music, 2 beat sound or longer sound, she is more able to press it long enough, but not 1 beat sound, she play more like half beat sound, half beat rest, even the timing on the right side looks good. Last semester you were asking us to play more butterfly, is that you think that the 1 beat is not playing enough?

I am asking her butterfly, she worries about the timing. How to work on that? It seems to play the duration correctly, it is quite difficult. My ear is only roughly knowing about it too.
