<< you don't learn to sing once a week. it is probably not an increase of lessons you need but more efficient practice. every once in a while i will have my students practice for me. it is astonishing what, otherwise rational, people will come up with when left to their own devices. i have had students who seemed to get nowhere until i taught them how to practice and then really took off. i suggest you ask your teacher for a lesson in how to practice. don't worry if this request is greeted with shock. regretably, it is something we teachers often overlook. >> That is a really interesting POV, Mike ... I think this week may be "Show me how you practice" week.... Thanks for the idea!!
