I have finally arrived as a piano teacher... I put on a recital!
I currently have eight students (two of whom are my own children), from beginning to intermediate. Although I've been teaching "for reals" for a couple years now, this is the first time I felt like I could host a recital. The assisted living home across the street let us have the recital in their big "living room". They have a "baby grand" electric piano that looks pretty impressive and plenty of space for all the friends and family who attended. It also made a really nice event for the residents. And since my aunt is a resident there, it was doubly special.
The kids all did an amazing job!... even the couple that I worried might not be prepared in time. I gave each of them a challenging piece. But they all worked really hard and learned and memorized their pieces. I was very proud of them.
