The "P" Word



There’s only one way to get better at playing an instrument.  I had to do it.  You had to do it.  And now you’ve got to find some way of getting you students to do it.

Yep.  It’s time for that talk. 

Practice.


But, I hear you cry, my students will be so motivated by my wonderful, inspiring lessons that they will not want to stop practicing.

Hear that?  It’s the sound of my trying to suppress my gales of laughter.

I don’t care how amazing a teacher you are.  You’re gonna get kids who don’t practice.
So, what can you do about it?


This is the first in a series of six posts about practicing for different ages/stages, answering that very question.

Stay tuned.
