On the Struggle for Creativity


"In the beginning it’s so wonderful to see... at first they (students) struggle - of course, if you don’t struggle you don’t learn anything. There has to be the chaos so that something happens. I try to teach the children to love that moment...that is when the learning starts."(Terhi Oksanen, Music Teacher, Espoo, Finland)
