What should you focus on this week?
Focus on good tone quality! Make sure to practice with a metronome every time you practice and to practice until you have mastered the material. Musicians and athletes learn by repetition (doing it over and over again). Practice until you feel you have mastered the material and feel comfortable taking a test on the material. If you have difficulty or questions, write them down and bring them to class and ask Ms. Dean for help.
