How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
- Is your child interested in music? A lot of this will depend on the exposure and enjoyment they have had with the music in their lives up to this point.
- Can they pay attention for at least 5 minutes? Do note that their attention spans will increase as they continue to practice.
- Are they willing to commit to at least 30 minutes practice every day? Talk to them! Especially as they get older, you will want to do this.
- If they can already read, it will be easier, though I've had many students that have learned to read music first.
- Are You ready to work with them? All ages need at least some parent attention, the younger they are the more you will need to work directly with them, full time.
When will I start to see results?
This question can be very variable. The standard is 7 years to mastery. You should be prepared to stick it out. However, you should see a few things on the first day. Aside from that, a great deal depends on how much they practice and how Effectively they practice. If the practicing is sloppy or haphazard, without taking the time to check all the details first and then put it together using the method mentioned above for working a piece up, they may never fully work a given piece up.
Music is full of patterns. The students need to learn to see and hear them. Learning the music 1 step at a time allows this. Typically 2 to 8 months to be able to play very simple Christmas songs using standard notation, depending on age and practice habits.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
1 - Look the piece over, very well. Looking for patterns and the overall shape of the music. Check all basic details, such as: Clefs, Key Signature, Time Signature and any directions on how the music should be played.
2) Take it apart. Look for sticky spots that might give you trouble. Decide how you will handle it and then practice them.
3) All practice should include: Making sure that you know all the letters, Clapping and then Tapping the rhythms out, Playing hands alone first and Then hands together. Practice SLOWLY to start and then very gradually increase the tempo until you are at full speed. Also, start by practicing section by section. It's a much more efficient and effective way to learn.
