Effective Piano Practice

Practising between lessons is essential as you want to learn and progress in the lessons rather than just end up practising in the lessons!

If possible, try to have somewhere quiet to practise.

It is useful to practise little and often as this keeps things fresh in your mind. Practising for around 10-15 minutes each day if possible would be a good way to start, building up to around half-an-hour each day as you progress.

The more advanced you become, the more practice time is generally needed. You may well find you'll miss some days, which is fine. Perhaps then try to do a bit more the following day when practice time may suit you better.

The hardest parts should be practised the most.

Practise slowly, correct mistakes, stay focused and concentrate.

What My Pupils Say
open quotation marksSuzanne has been my daughter's piano teacher for a couple of years now. She is an excellent piano teacher who teaches with great patience and understanding. She's always cheerful and provides a warm atmosphere for learning. My daughter who is now 8 years old loves her and looks forward to her lessons.

We tried a few teachers before we found Suzanne and I can tell the difference as my daughter feels well supported and has made remarkable progress ever since we met her.

Her progress has not been hindered by the lockdown as Suzanne came up with a brilliant style of online lessons that works very well for us. She guided us on how to set up in order to get the best online experience.

I am very pleased with Suzanne and would highly recommend her.close quotation marks
