I work as a teacher at a girls' school in Tokyo

Chapter 32 Wind section, happy practice

This morning, Hirakawa Tetsubun asked Shinohara Shiori why he must be asked to play the performance department.Shiori Shinohara replied:
"Because of Teacher Xiaoli, she is indeed a qualified music consultant, but she is definitely not a qualified instructor."

Well, the ruthless sharp comment is not euphemistic at all.

When she continued to ask why, she said this:

"Ms. Ogasa's music level and command level are completely adequate, but due to her personality and other reasons, she basically has no majesty in front of the students in the performance department."

"It can be said that in the face of Teacher Xiaoli's instructions, many students have no ability to execute, and they are just scattered."

After commenting like this, Shiori Shinohara invited Tetsufumi Hirakawa to come to the performance section again this afternoon, which is now.

And looking at the performance department that just couldn't calm down, and...

Mr. Ogasa, who is still trying to shout "everyone, please be quiet", Tetsufumi Hirakawa thinks... Maybe Shiori Shinohara is right.

Of course, it's too early to draw conclusions, so let's see.

Hirakawa Tetsubun just stood in front of the students, waiting quietly.After he finished introducing himself, some of the students below kept whispering to each other.

"Student Shiraishi, please be quiet."

Teacher Xiaoli already had to call and remind.

Then, the girl named Shiraishi turned around and stuck out her tongue at Ogasa Suzuki with a smile.

"Okay, Mr. Ogasa."

"A few other... Matsuura students."

"Yes."

"Takao-san."

"Hey."

"Please be quiet."

"Okay."

"..."

After the roll call, the noisy scene finally quieted down.It's not easy.

Feeling silently, Hirakawa Tetsubun turned around and faced Ogasa Suzukiko.

"Teacher Ogasa."

"Teacher Hirakawa, what's wrong?"

"Actually, I'm here today just to see what's going on in the flute department. Teacher Xiaoli just practice as usual."

"That's it, okay."

Seeing Mr. Xiaoli in front of him nodding obediently like a student, Tetsufumi Hirakawa silently retreated to the side, walked to the chair, and sat down.

lost in thought.

I have to admit that if Tetsufumi Hirakawa was in school, he would definitely like a teacher like Suzuki Ogasa very much.Cute and soft, it looks like it has a good temper and won't get angry.

A teacher with such a personality is very easy to mingle with students.From a student's point of view, there should be no one who doesn't like such a teacher, right?
However, after Hirakawa Tetsuwen became a teacher himself, he finally realized... It is indeed easy for a teacher with such a character to gain the favor of the students and bring them closer.

However, as a teacher, when facing the student group, the closer the better.Sometimes it is often necessary to take a step back and put yourself in the position of a "teacher" rather than a "friend".

As for Ogasa Suzuki, her character seems to be unable to do this...

——The dividing line of playing——

"Everyone—stop! Shiraishi-san, can you play the sixth measure for me alone?"

"Eh...don't you?"

"it does not matter."

"But people will be shy."

"Hmm...Come on?"

"Oh, cheers from Mr. Xiaoli, I'm motivated all of a sudden."

"So……"

"Well, one more cheer will do."

"Okay, Shiraishi-san, come on."

"Well, okay, then I'll come."

——The dividing line of playing——

"Stop, Shiraishi, stop here for a while."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"There is a problem."

"Eh? No way?"

"Yes, please relax your lips a little."

"Is that so...Maybe I'm too nervous."

"Okay, don't be nervous, do it again, and relax a bit—other students who play the trumpet should also remember."

——The dividing line of playing——

"Okay, it's not bad, remember the feeling just now."

"Okay, thank you, Teacher Xiaoli."

"It's okay, please keep going."

——The dividing line of the ensemble——

"Everyone, stop here again. Bar 15, the trombone part, can you play it for me, please?"

"it is good."

[Trombone ensemble]

"Okay, stop. Matsuura-san—"

"No way? Is there a problem?" Matsuura, who was pointed out, showed a look of feigned surprise.

"Unfortunately, yes."

"Oh, don't." All of a sudden he became depressed.

"Okay, cheer up a little bit. Could you blow it alone, please?"

"Hmm... I also want Teacher Xiaoli's support."

"Okay, please come on."

"I'm so happy, can I trouble the teacher to do it again?"

"Hey, good, please come on!"

"The ears are soft. Then for Mr. Xiaoli, I will start."

——The dividing line of playing——

"Okay, here it is, Matsuura-san, please move your tongue faster."

"Is it too slow?"

"Yes."

"Okay, remember."

——The dividing line of practice——

"Teacher, Teacher Ogasa."

"Takao-san, what's wrong?"

"I'm so tired, can I take a rest?"

"Is that so... are the other students tired too?"

"I'm tired." They said in unison.

"Okay then, let's take a 10-minute break."

——10-minute dividing line——

"Okay, it's been 10 minutes, have you rested yet?"

"Eh, no." Said Takao-san who was chatting with the students next to her.

"Is that so?"

"Yeah, 10 minutes is too short. Teacher Ogasa, please rest for another 5 minutes."

"What... what do the other students think?"

"I think so too."

"Okay, let's rest for another 5 minutes, but you can't add more."

"Okay, I like Mr. Ogasa the most." Takao cheered.

——The Dividing Line of Rest——

"Okay, everyone, let's start practicing."

"it is good."

——The dividing line of practice——

"Ms. Ogasa, it's 6 o'clock."

"Is that the case...Okay, that's the end of today's practice. Goodbye, students."

"Goodbye, Teacher Ogasa."

"Be careful on the road."

"Ok."

This is the end of the pleasant wind part practice time.

If this is an extra-curricular wind music amateur interest class, Hirakawa Tetsuwen thinks it can get full marks.

After all, it is an interest class, with a relaxed and pleasant practice environment, and a teacher with a good level of music and conducting.

Such an environment is perfect for cultivating children's interest in music.

It's a pity if it is.

What is the goal of the performance department of the private Moriya Girls High School?

Is it a relaxing and enjoyable wind instrument activity?
