The certificate of merit is an exam that a musician can take. The exam test the musicians ability to play his/her instrument. If the musician passes the test they receive a certificate that says they passed the exam.
Mom, I was wondering if I can take the level five Saxophone certificate of merit exam.
Of course honey you can do it but it will be hard. I will call the soxophone teacher now to set it up.
Later that day Allen's mom called Kyle, the music teacher, to set up lessons.
Hi, Kyle, I was wondering if you would be able to teach my son Allen the requirements for the level 5 certificate of merit.
At Kyle's house, talking to Allen's mom.
Yes, of course I can. It will be great to work with him. Have him come in so we can get started right away.
Later in the week, Allen went to go see Kyle to discuss the plan and the requirements for the certificate of merit exam .
Hi Allen, I'm Kyle. I will be your music teacher for the next 8 months. I will be helping you learn the music pieces and the music theory for this year.
I'm very excited to start. I am also excited to see what pieces I am going to be learning this year.
For the next eight months Kyle and Allen would meet once a week to practice the required material for the test.
