Good morning!

I just want to thank everyone that has respondeed to my email.  
Your suggestions are very helpful.

To I want to teach piano.  I am going to need to brush up on a 
lot but I remember the scales and chords.  So I am going to check 
into some courses to get what I will need.

Linda mentioned that I am going to need Braille.  Do you mean a 
course in Braille music? I know that NLS offers something in that 
but if there are other courses I will appreciate knowing that.

Thank you all and God bless.

>> Hi Anita,
>> Welcome back.

>> It will depend on what music you want to teach.  If you're 
planning to teach sighted students, you will need a working 
knowledge of print music.  If you're going to teach piano, you'll 
need your course in Braille so that you can help your students 
with note reading, rhythm, fingering, etc.  So, firstly, decide 
what you want to teach.  You don't necessarily need a college 
degree or college classes, but you must be proficient yourself 
before you teach someone else.  Set your price, call music stores 
in your area and let the people there know you're available, tell 
your church members.  Just a few suggestions.

>> Blessings,
