My violinist

Mitchell started violin this school year.  The beginnings of greatness!  I'm so impressed with his interest and focus.  The first weekend he brought the instrument home he practiced on his own 4 times.  I probably don't have to tell you this but that is not normal!  Most kids need serious urging to get them to practice.  I sure did back in the day.

I'm learning as he goes too which is cool.  Here's a short video that resulted from the question "Can you show me what you learned this week?  I didn't expect a full on lesson!

Kudos to all the hard working music teachers within the Middleton Cross Plains School District  particularly Mitchell's teacher - Kristine Corey.  You guys work magic so keep up the good work!
