I will try both; it sounds like I might be able to use both, just for different situations that come up.
In answer to the question about my students, one is 12 years, and the other is 33. The older one has a ADHD condition that makes him unable to focus well, so he may be more difficult to teach advanced methodology and improv things, but I believe that he has natural abilities for range.
I was just wondering if anyone had found a good way to print notes with trumpet fingering for trumpet students.
I have just begun teaching 2 students, and have gone about it by typing the notes in NoteWorthy, doing a print-preview, and then a copy/paste into MS Word. Then creating an image (3 vertical circles) below each note and printing. After printing, I color in the appropriate circle for which the student is to hold down the appropriate valve.
