I taught a student last year. He can’t play piano very well and I taught him a month but he still can’t play it and I don’t know how to do, I’m so annoyed. But I can’t angry so I let him play a song slowly slowly and slowly and play it more than 10 times. Finally he can play it but I think the way is not good. I talk to his mother that the kid need to practice but his mother never let him practice.

I taught a student last year who couldn’t play piano very well and I taught him for a month but he still couldn’t play it and I didn’t know what to do, so I was so annoyed.
