Depending on the student, different combinations of books may be used. The following are books that I typically work from, but if you've started in another book and would like to continue, I'd be happy to work with whatever you have!
Additionally, all of these books are Amazon links, but feel free to purchase from your local music store or a used online retailer.
If you have any questions about which book(s) your student should be using, don't hesitate to ask!
