In this episode, we continue where we left off in episode 158, discussing the teacher/student relationship, and we turn our attention to the second partner in the musical team: the student and how they can get the most out of their lesson and learning experience.

Reflection - Here are questions to increase your awareness of the topics I cover in the episode:

• · What else can I try?
• · How does this concept work for me?
• · How can I make this work for me?
• · How can I solve this?
• · If I knew how to improve this, what would the solution look like?
