Practice, Practice, Practice!
♫ Sunday, November 16th, 2008Unfortunately, summer vacation fun can lead to a break from practicing. Here are some tips (contributed by a parent!) to help you get back on track:
- Always schedule your practice time
- Practice every day, even if you can just find a few minutes
- Find a quiet place away from distractions
- Practice slowly and thoughtfully
- Spend most of your time on your newer and more difficult work
- Don’t whine! Just get to work
- Don’t practice when you are tired
- Listen to music recordings every day
- Sing the notes first, then play
- Set goals, and don’t give up!
