EditTips

  • For teaching young children, it is recommended to start with mythologies, arts/literature, and natural science. Keep it simple at first and then adjust in accord with the student's needs, interests, and developmental progress.
  • Check online for free/comparable software for MS office programs and music makers (search for Soundation) if no real instrument is available.
