2- What's missing in piano lessons (in my opinion)

In this episode, we're going to talk about what’s missing in piano lessons.  In my opinion, that's the interaction with the parents.  Parents should feel just as included in what’s being learned as your child does.  You should know how to help them practice and should leave lessons feeling confident each week in your ability to do so. Here are 3 ways to help you communicate better with your child's piano teacher: 1. Ask the teacher if they’re not providing information to communicate with you, even if it’s just on a sticky note of what your child needs to be practicing that week. 2. Take notes if you’re in an open lesson environment.  Write things down like warmup- C scale, learn new song on page 54, music theory is treble clef lines and spaces, practice for 30 minutes, remember posture.  3. If all else fails, as the week goes on and you’ve forgotten something, ask the teacher.  Don’t be afraid to shoot a quick email their way to ask them about something your child needs to be doing.
