Description

Class Experience

In this one-time class for 16- to 18-year-olds you will learn different methods for a successful music practice routine! These methods can be applied to any instrument. Staying focused while practicing can be hard, so you will learn ways to play fun songs and make the most of your practice time. I'm a strong proponent of learners discovering answers, so we will discuss options that work best for you. The class will be centered around brainstorming solutions for you, guided by my experience...

You will learn how to
1. Choose a good length for daily practice time 
2. Pick warm-up pieces
3. Work through hard parts
4. Select cool-down pieces
5. Create a written weekly practice outline

I will provide a blank PDF practice schedule sheet that you can fill in during class or on your own. I am happy to give you feedback on the structure of your plan!
