Supported Practice Guide Part 1

Hi there! I decided to share a handful of supported practicing tips every few days to help you engage your learner as they embark on this new musical journey! I hope you find it helpful and that it inspires some creativity in the process. Enjoy & happy practicing!

Establish a Routine: Set aside regular, dedicated practice times. Consistency is key to progress.

Start with Short Sessions: Begin with shorter practice sessions (10-20 minutes) and gradually increase the duration as the student's attention span improves.

Warm-Up Exercises: Begin each session with simple warm-up exercises to loosen up fingers and prepare them for playing.

Break it Down: Divide pieces into smaller sections. Practice each section separately before putting them together.

Focus on Fundamentals: Prioritize learning basic techniques like proper hand position, finger placement, and posture.

More to come in a few days! See you again, soon!

Welcome!

I am honored you are considering me to be a part of your child’s musical journey! I love sharing my gift of music with each and every student I encounter.

I believe each child is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which to learn.

I achieve this environment by leveraging each child's natural curiosity, with fun and challenging lessons, through patient and affirming instruction.

If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
