JULY 2018

This month I am introducing a new feature!
Student Focus
This feature will present a small biography of the student that has impressed me the most in recent weeks.  Read on for this month's Student Focus.
Please don't forget to review Matt Hurt Guitar Tuition on Facebook and Google.

IMPORTANT UPDATES!


There are a couple of new protocols I need to put forward for current students and parents/guardians.  Please pay attention to the following:

  • From July onwards I will be sending calendar invites (using iCal) in order to confirm lessons.  Please make sure the invitations are accepted.  Each invite will contain information on cancellation policies and contain a link to full terms and conditions on my website.
  • As I conduct the majority of my business from home I have a duty to respect the comfort of the people I live with.  Most students attend at a time of day where there is no one but myself in the house, but as I become busier it is more likely for lessons to be conducted later in the evening when my partner and lodgers may be back from work.  Moving forward I must ask that if your lesson takes place past 5:30pm that any parent or guardian attending the lesson either sits in the lesson for its duration or remains outside the property until its completion.  There maybe one off days when someone else is working from home and, if this is the case, I will ask the same.

STUDENT FOCUS

Mirabelle, 10*
​
I started teaching Mirabelle about 2 and a half years ago when I was working for Five Dock Music School.  When the school closed its doors we were given the opportunity to retain our students privately if they wished to carry on lessons.  Mirabelle stuck at it for another 6 months and, then while the family completed the building of their new house, she decided to take a little break. 
About 9 months later I received a call from Mirabelle's Mum saying she'd recently picked up her guitar again and was itching for lessons!  Ever since she has been making strides week on week, surprising herself at what she can play!  I think both her Mum and I realised that playing the guitar was something she loved when she started to teach herself songs outside of the lessons.  We've recently been working on songs by Dua Lipa, Anne-Marie and AC/DC's Back in Black!  We'd only done one lesson on Back in Black and she had the confidence to play it in front of her class at school!  Now that we've got all the rhythm and riff parts learned we've just started on learning the solo, I can't wait to see her face when she realises she can do it!  I'm pretty sure she's sneakily learned some Metallica along the way without me helping her too.
Her effort and quick progress makes Mirabelle the subject of my first 'Student Focus'.

I can't believe you all have me talking about music again. I am not an authority. I am not a music graduate or whatsoever. I didn't even bother to get formal training. I think I can't even tell the genres apart. All I know is when I sing, I am trying to express what I am feeling as of the moment and believe it or not, it's like an involuntary movement. I have no idea what tune I will be riding next. I think most people are also like me.

It must be hard dealing with someone like me. I just thought about this now. There are times when people are just really busy yet whenever it takes forever for someone to reply, I begin to get an overload of morbid running thoughts that by the time that person finally frees up her schedule, I am too worn out to function already. Don't you just hate people like that? Maybe I only think I am "hatable" because I am the one who actually hated people like that. Funny I have the nerve to hate when I am way more obnoxious.

If I am to write a newsletter today, it will be empty. Nothing is happening in my life right now. I am not sure where the problem is coming from. What I am asking everyone to do is not really too much. I just want what I thought was normal. I don't understand why it's such a struggle to get to that level of normal. It seems I am being dragged somewhere and I am being taken on a downward spiral. I am so depressed I don't know what to do with myself anymore. I don't know who to turn to. If I turn to God, I just want myself dead so I can see Him.
