words to connect the different events.
I'm talking about learning to play a musical instrument.
The first time I went to school to learn to play the piano it was very exciting and I was very nervous,
because it was the dream of always learning to play the piano.
When I arrived I introduced myself to my teacher, his name was Carlos Tacuri and the music school was
called Fenix, I was the only one who had arrived early, then other boys arrived, but none of them would
learn to play piano if not another instrument.
The first class only gave us a little history of the piano and told us that the next class would teach us the
musical notes, it was difficult to learn because of the flexibility that you must have with your fingers but
trying every day if I could.
I only stayed 1 month in that school and I learned little; I had to leave the classes because I had family
problems, finally with what little I learned I continue to practice in my free moments.
