Before the very fist class I always like to be prepared to make notes and have any tools that will help me absorb what the student needs.
On that first meeting I make sure to ask the right questions and build a relationship based in trust. And by asking what's the student background, and interests and goals I develop a syllabus (class plan) dedicated for this specific case. Each student is just a different individual and each one deserves their specific kind of attention. This will guarantee me the preparation I need to achieve our class goals and get amazing results.
After every lesson the student will the material needed to keep practicing such as
