Y'all might have noticed I'm not posting as much as I used to - I've been too darn busy!

This week I added eleven new guitar students to my roster - and for the first time in my career (this year marks my 29th year as a guitar teacher) - I have no open slots, and am wait-listing students!

Yes, congrats. That is terrific news.

I wish I lived in IL to, or rather I wish you would move to OK. But then again, if I were a teacher (and stuggling for students) I think I would take a shot a moving to the internet. Seems like with webcams and broadband it would be pretty easy to set something up where you and your student would have a webcam and just teach via your living room.

ACK, but I got way off course cause you are up to your eyeballs in students. LOL And that is a great thing.

You must be doing something right.

That's great news Tom!

I've probably learned more from you than anyone else on this site, and if your students enjoy their lessons as much as we enjoy your posts here, all I can say is they're lucky people!!!

Congrats again....

:D :D :D
