Things to consider
Start with Volume 1 for early intermediate students; Volumes 3 and 5 address specific technical needs (sonatinas and hand-span limitations). If you teach multiple students or need aural reference, the book-and-CD editions provide performance models. Duet volumes work well for motivating younger students or filling studio recital slots with engaging partner arrangements.
