This method has been
trialled with students aged between 7 and 9, over many years. Depending
on the frequency and duration of lessons, timelines may vary, but
essentially, students can play tunes quickly and experience success
early on. Book 2 can be used as an individual tutor book for older
students or following on from Book 1, which is an aurally-based and
clef-free method for young beginners, using pizzicato to page 15 and
bowing from D Major Scale onwards. Book 2 focuses on clef reading,
using a “hand staff” on common strings, to allow the teacher to work in
3 clefs at a time. Once students are familiar with the letter name,
string and number of fingers used for each note, adding the staff makes
note-reading so easy! The approach is sequential, the print is clear
and the pages uncluttered, allowing the teacher the freedom to add
material and information as desired. |
