------------------------------------------------------------------------



I bought few new stuffs for my teaching.



This finger twister is very interesting and fun!




The picture clearly explains how do we use it...hehehe....ytd played it with one of my student for the first time and he loves it!! He even asked for more!! The purpose of this game is to let the child's finger increase their flexibility by twisting them everywhere, playing more of that will help each finger to be independent! In addition, children usually will find it a chore to use their fingers to play finger exercises on the piano. But now...without any of them noticing...they are unconsciously doin their finger exercises! Cool rite!?



And This teaching notes are for teachers teaching the graded students. A Whole New Syllabus!


It gives some directions on how to go about playing the exam pieces, some helps alot, but some advices are not that practical. So it depends on the teacher in the end, and how the student carry out their own performance. Everyone have their own character and unique way to play their music, you cant find 100% identical music in this world. If anyone can find it, then we can call it "robotic playing" or just simply imitation!



OK..enough of my "philosophy", even though im still working hard to find my own unique way too. its not so easy!


Going out to teach! Blog soon! Bye bye!


With Lots of Love,
