I just realised that I've been teaching piano for one and a half years already! Wow!

And recently I had this new student from my Condo, and he just lives right above me, on the 11th storey. Oh well, teaching this student private is good because I don't need to travel (except taking the elevator), but because he's an adult, it's sometimes more difficult to teach.

Cos he wants to learn piano his way. And him being my "customer", of course I must try to accomodate to his requests. And that means I do not teach him anything about the basics, like note values and timing blah blah blah. I just teach him how to play a song, thru memory or by ear or watever methods I can think of.

I mean, if that's what he wants, fine. But somehow it's difficult mah, since you have like zero foundation, haven't learn to walk, wanto run already...how can!

That makes me dread his lesson (a little only lah), because of such a way of training. And I did try to start him off with a little theory basics and I could tell he was utterly bored. haha.

And I am going to see him later for lesson. Later at 8pm. =(
