thank you.
no, thank you.
no. shall we get started?
let's try it again.
yes. remember, fingers curved. like a tunnel.
don't flatten.
make room for the train.
i said "make room for the train." it's something that i tell my kids. if you curve your fingers like this.  then the train can pass through the tunnel.
thank you. next tuesday at the same time?
oh, no. are you giving up?
oh. ok. goodbye.
mr. vale? if i may ask, how many teachers have you had before me?
well, for what it's worth, it's difficult to learn an instrument at your age. especially if you don't possess a natural gift for it. i'm not saying this to be mean. but if you do decide to give up then i would really like to buy your piano. it's a beautiful instrument.
goodbye.
