The studio is almost entirely put together. I have my books on the shelf, piano all set up, and various other items out for use! There are so many choices to make when starting a business - it is really overwhelming! But, its a growth process!
I have my first student! I will be teaching a 7 year old girl twice a week: once on piano and once in voice. It will definitely be a learning experience. I met with her and another girl (a 12 year old) today. The meeting with the older girl didn't go well, in my opinion. She is amazing but I truly felt my own inadequacies! I think it will be easier to teach her (if she comes back!) now that I have a bit of an idea about her voice, but it was still discouraging.
Funny though, how often discouraging things are followed by encouraging ones! Austin was amazing, supportive, and helpful and I received an email from another potential student. Hopefully this time next week, I'll have 4 lessons to teach every week!
But now, I had better be off to work on advertising and research!
YAY! Looks great! Proud of you.
