Teaching notes:
It is worth noting that almost every phrase ends with an accented note and then a rest. It can be tempting to (incorrectly) hang on to the last note of the phrases, especially on the 2nd page.
Although the piece has quite a fast metronome mark, keep the "moody" feel and don't let it get too fast.
Also make sure the swing rhythms don't turn into dotted quaver - semiquaver rhythms.
