Teaching

Hello David,
a friend of mine want to play harmonica. And he was asking me, if I could teach him like showing him to start playing harmonica and so on.
I appreciated his request and I would like to do that, but I'm not sure. I'm not sure how to do this. I have a few questions, maybe you can help me out:
Am I ready for this?
How I know I'm ready?
How should I start?
What should I'm teaching him?
Need I any jam tracks and tabs?
And where can I get that?
What if is he asking for bending but he's still at the beginning?
Thanks for your time. :)
Greetings
Hello Rouven. I have training material for teachers, but you’re three levels away from that at the moment. There is no reason why you can’t help get him started though... you have the skill. I recommend you review the L1 material and make notes of what to show him along the way. I’ll also be happy to get him on the site for a month to help get him started. Between you and me, we can give him a solid start (send me an email and I’ll get him dialed in).
P.S., bending is best taught after they have about six months under their belt.
