Article: You will need twenty plastic party cups altogether. Classic red party cups are most often used. Arrange ten cups in pyramid form on each end of the table. The row closest to you has four cups, and the last row that is closest to the middle of the table has only one cup. A regulation beer pong table is seven to eight feet in length and two feet wide, though you can use any type of table that is fairly long. The cups are usually 16 or 18 ounce cups. Red party cups can be purchased at most supermarkets and package stores. You will need to partially fill the cups with beer, or any other liquid that you want to use. Water can be used for a non-alcoholic game. Typically, two 12oz beers should be enough to fill ten cups. More or less can be used depending on how much you want to drink. The cups need to be filled with beer because each cup that is scored on is supposed to be consumed and then set aside. Fill the cups about a of the way full. Set up a cup filled only with water on the side of the table to clean off balls that fall on the floor or get dirty. A game can be played with one player, or two players on each team. Don't have any more than two players on each team. If playing with two players on each team, each team plays with two balls instead of one. Determine who gets first shot by doing an eye-to-eye challenge. One opponent from each team looks the other player in the eyes and throw the balls towards each other's cups. The balls are shot until one player sinks the ball in the opponent's cup, and the other player misses. If playing in teams, switch partners until one partner succeeds in making the cup. The team that wins the eye-to-eye challenge gets the first throw in the game. Do not remove the cup if it is scored on. Just remove the ball, wash it, and begin playing the game. Take turns throwing the ping pong ball into each other's cups. Drink the contents of the cup and remove it each time a ball makes it into the cup. Continue doing this until all of the cups are gone. The winner is the first to eliminate all of the other team's cups. The game is automatically won if members of the same team sink the ball into the same cup of the opposing team. The winning team typically gets to stay on the table and take on a new team for the next game.

Article: If you plan on making music instruction your full-time occupation, a thorough business plan is absolutely essential. If you are more of a hobbyist in your teaching, you will still need to prepare, but it may require less time and effort depending on the size of your studio. Lessons for beginners are typically 30 minutes long and will increase to an hour as the student becomes older or acquires more skill. If you have no teaching experience but are skilled at the piano, it is appropriate to charge $15-20 per 30 minutes or $30-40 per hour. Keep in mind that the rate you charge is dependent on many factors, including your educational pedigree, playing and teaching experience, references from your students, and the city you live in. As you gain experience, it is recommended that you increase your rates a little each year. Piano teachers with significant experience and skill can charge up to $60 per 30 minutes or $120 per hour. Charge a flat, monthly fee for lessons instead of a rate per session. This is to discourage skipping lessons, and it increases desire to make up missed lessons. While many teachers hold lessons in their own home, you may also travel to a student's home if they have a quality piano that has been tuned recently. You can also rent a space at a music store or community center. Be sure to use a space that will allow you to keep as much of your earnings as you need while being clean, welcoming, and conducive to learning. Factor the time and cost of travel into your fees if applicable. Some great titles for beginners include Alfred's Basic Piano Library Lesson Book series, Bastien Piano Basics Primer Level, and the Hal Leonard Piano Method Book series. While you may sell your copies of the books to students, it is better to have them purchase their own personal copies so that they can mark up their sheet music with notes and tips from lessons. It is also time-consuming to be constantly replacing books that you've given to students. Use a well-developed method, such as the Suzuki method, if you prefer its teachings or if you are having trouble finding a place to start. Some methodologies require official certification before they may be taught for commercial purposes, so research the certification costs and requirements before using that method in your pedagogy. Make a comprehensive list of policies for your studio including information about payment schedules and amounts, weather and holiday cancellations, lesson make-ups, notice of termination of lessons, and attendance and practice expectations. Share this with the parents of your students at their first lesson, and ensure that both the student and their parents understand all of your policies. Place an ad in your local paper, on CraigsList, and inside the building where you'll be teaching if you're holding lessons outside of the home. Ask to place fliers on the bulletin board in your local community buildings such as a recreation center, church, or library. Tell everyone you know that you're teaching piano, and offer a referral discount for current students. Only advertise the ages and genres you're qualified to teach. Reach out to local school music teachers. Introduce yourself, and offer free workshops and accompaniment for concerts and musicals. Be sure to stress that you want to help their program, rather than insisting that they send their students to you for piano lessons. Advertise on websites specifically designed to help people find music teachers in their area (like https://takelessons.com/), but be aware that you may have to pay a fee to promote your services.
