It finally happened, I found Camden a piano teacher. He has needed one that isn't his mom and who can teacher him more than I would ever be able to do. This past week he had his first lesson, and he's not so sure about it now. We told him for a few days to practice songs that he wants to play for her so his new teacher can see where he is at talent wise. Camden being Camden played one song once and thought he was good. When he did go he struggled through the song he 'practiced' and then tried to play one he hasn't played since May. Due to that she didn't get a good feel from where he was at. She could tell he knew a lot, but he didn't do the work he needed to. I will say she is so great so far. It is going to be the best thing for him to be able to grown as a pianist and to play how he wants to be able to do. On the way home I asked how it was and he said eh, he didn't like it. I knew he wouldn't, and we talked later. He didn't want to do it anymore, but we're not letting him stop. Camden said she gave him to easy of things, which i told him was kind of his doing since he didn't really show what he could do, due to lack of practice. We got him the new books he needs which seemed to help him feel better. I told him he has to give it 100% until Christmas break and then we would look at it again. I for one and really happy we found someone who will take him and am really excited to see how much he grows.
