“This was fun! … I liked keeping ahead of the lights” Shaolu, age 12

“Nothing is more terrible than activity without insight”
- Thomas Carlyle 1795-1881

How those words must resonate with piano teachers dealing with sight reading!

Sight reading can improve with much practice. But there is only limited time a teacher can allocate during the weekly lesson for this essential ingredient of musical training.
Using a Wessar at the lesson makes the best use of the teacher’s time and ensures that the outcome is purposeful and worthwhile. Supplying students with sight reading material for home practice can lead to some activity but this is generally accompanied by little understanding or insight regarding what is necessary for fluent reading. In truth, it can often be a waste of time.

“Without question, your Wessar deals with the matter of eye continuity brilliantly…It is a serious attempt to deal with a real problem … and if teachers will use it as an ongoing teaching tool, then it will make an undoubted contribution in the teaching studio.”
