EXPECTATIONS Line up outside the classroom and wait for me. You may sit where you like unless I move you. Encourage each other, some people will not be confident performing to the group. Share your knowledge, we can’t all be experts at every instrument. Take responsibility for your work. Only you can pass this course. Bring the correct equipment – make sure you know if you need instruments or books or both for the next lesson. Listen carefully and don’t interrupt when I am talking. Hand in homework on time (or get a detention – your choice..) Meet all deadlines, they are there for a reason. Be nice to me and each other and WORK HARD and ENJOY IT.
