If you're a little bit nervous, that's completely normal! But don't worry, your teacher will help put you at ease. There won't be any tests or pressure. 

At the first lesson you will probably talk more than at any other lesson. Your teacher will want to hear a little bit about you and what your hopes are for music lessons. You’ll also learn a little bit more about your teacher’s teaching style and what you can hope to learn!

You will also begin making music at the first lesson. Remember, building a skill takes time and practice, but don't be surprised if you're making some music already by the end of the very first lesson. 

Be prepared with an open mind and a positive attitude!
Allow yourself to be excited about learning and open to take some chances and discover a whole new world of music! 

*music (optional) 
If you have any prior experience, bring some music you'd like to work on--don't worry, this isn't a test! It helps your teacher to assess your current skills and make a plan for future studies. 
If you're a beginner, your teacher will recommend new music books for you.
