Balance Between Playing and Practicing. Practicing - focusing on whatever skill you've begun learning in your lesson in order to become better at your instrument. I usually recommend 15 minutes a day, 5 days a week. Playing, simply means to play whatever you enjoy (jamming along with your favorite music, making up your own, etc). Playing should be the reward after practicing. Focused practice on a regular basis leads to much faster progress and ultimately a lot more fun playing. |

Monthly RemindersStudents should remember to bring their method book, a folder (for handouts) and a pencil every time they travel to the studio for a lesson. |
