Show your active boys this video!!!
Ari Lu is grade 1 heading to grade 2. He just turned 6 years old two months ago (he's so big!!!) His other favourite hobby is basketball.
This lesson is very good content - I taught Ari how to bow (end of year concert coming soon), how to walk, harmonic scales, Mozzies (concert piece), Rainy Saturday (learning), Summer Toccatina (learning) and briefly on new Burgmuller pieces.
What's interesting about Ari is that he is curious, energetic, active, runs around, fiddles around the room but as soon as he goes on the piano his concentration is very good.
Notice my personality is much more "upbeat" so I can get his "attention respect" haha... usually boys tend to prefer male teachers so in order to keep up with his engagement, I used my remaining energy to have fun. Luckily, Ari was my last student of the Saturday morning.. phew! But he always make me leave with a smile on my face :)
