For a while, my sister had been wanting to take piano lessons. My mother called a family friend that gives lessons, but she was completely full with students. I used to take lessons, but I haven’t for about a year or two. I volunteered to teach my sister. My mom was a little bit unsure because she thought that I might be too mean to her and yell at her when I taught her. She asked me to do it anyway. I showed my sister the basic hand position, found my first piano books and started teaching her from them. She is doing really well now.
