What began as a newsletter to share a few teaching ideas is now a book being hailed by string teachers everywhere as essential reading for anyone in the field. �Drawing on thirty years of teaching and learning the cello, Cornelia Watkins has written a comprehensive guide to teaching that is both personal and universal. �A compelling blend of story telling, psychology, philosophy and technique, Rosindust takes a candid look at the day-to-day challenges of teaching; but keeps in mind the experience of learning from the students' point of view. Based on the premise that the study of a stringed instrument can have a powerful, positive effect on developing the whole person, Watkins offers practical ways to promote self-awareness, problem-solving skills and creative thinking. �Rosindust sets forth teaching ideas ranging from cello specific techniques to comprehensive, easily transferable concepts.
