Closing in on the end of the second year of the blog, here. That's both exciting and scary at the same time. It's exciting because I know I've made some progress in the last two years, and because I know I'm 48 hours from a fresh start, a new year to learn and explore and play and improve. It's scary because on some level I can't believe that it's been two years already, and because I know there's more I could have done to improve in the last two years. I know it doesn't pay to wonder about times gone by, so I'm not going to dwell on it that much, I'm just going to vow to do better in year three than I did in years one and two.
Kept plugging away today in an effort to finish something off for N. I printed out a tab for "House Of The Rising Sun," if only to make things easier for N. Picking patterns can be tough to figure out for people just starting out. The tab will go in the folder, along with some chord sheets (majors & minors at first, sevenths later on), and an empty notebook for him to make note of questions, songs to learn, and anything else that might come up along the way.
The other thing that I'm going to have to do is make sure that I've got enough folders and notebooks to set one up for each of my new students. This time of year is perfect for that, though, what with school supplies going on sale for the next month or so. I should be able to find some sweet deals on notebooks (usually 25 cents each) as well as folders (usually 10 cents each). After that, all I've got to do is get a few of the business aspects (bookkeeping mostly) squared away, and then I'll be ready to teach like a crazy person. Should be awesome.
