Abstract
Returning to studios after COVID-19, student–teacher tensions seem to be higher than ever. Teenagers who spent the beginnings of their young adulthood in isolation clash with instructors who might mistake their stress and insecurity for apathy and laziness. In this article, I examine my personal experience with teaching teenagers and offer strategies for success in opening lines of communication between instructors and high-school-age students in the independent sector.
