I’m a believer in the ideology that a student shouldn’t fear a teacher, rather they should be able to be in an environment that they are comfortable in to learn and grow. The most success in the classroom that I have found is when I work with a teacher who is firm yet friendly towards their pupils. My aim as a teacher is to be able to inspire my students to succeed in a positive and relatable way.
“The real innovators did their innovating just by being themselves.” – Count Basie
Find a way to practice something you enjoy. For instance, when I practice I usually start by playing some songs I love to play to get myself in a happy mindset to be on the horn.
