I feel that, like my piano teachers always said, practice does in fact make perfet. It's amazing what can happen with even a 1/2 hour every other day when it comes to weekly lessons. I tend to assign more, but my point is that it's extremely important to practice! Also, what helped students the most - across the board - was theory workbooks, especially when it came to composition. Getting students interested in composing lends way to their completion rate when it came to homework too! Read More

Each lesson is spent listening to the work they have done and music theory, of course. Each week the student will be assigned a task to complete.  For adults, it very much depends on what the student already knows, what they want to learn and how much experience they have. Read More
