(1568) MUSIC AND ME (Aug. 02, 2018) 2 OF MY MUSIC STUDENTS TRIED WEARING MY READING GLASS

TWO OF MY MUSIC STUDENTS TRIED

WEARING MY READING GLASS

At 4:44 pm in April 27, 2018, while teaching 4 kids ukulele, one of them, Ngederong Surangel, borrowed my reading eyeglass. She tried it and I took photos with the other students Ilyana and Reese while Kirk is playing the ukulele in place of Arthur Surangel, who is watching TV.

An hour later, it's my turn to teach Kyle Soriano. When I showed him the photos of my ukulele students with one of them wearing my reading glass,  he wants to have a photo also of him wearing the eyeglass. I used to teach Kyle twice a week (one hour guitar and 1 hour chess), but his parents (Bruce and Violet) wants him to concentrate in guitar and it bears fruit! He is now my best student in guitar--both in rhythm and lead! If Shane Abellera is my best guitar student (chords), his weakness is in the ad lib and instrumental part. If I will teach him the ad lib of "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton, I think 8 hours is not enough for him to learn those (intro, ad lib and finale).
    He drew with me in a practice chess game....
