Piano Lesson Tips

1. If you’re learning a piece that you find complex, learn each hand’s part separately. Learn piano from one hand to the other for a much easier learning curve. Once you’ve mastered playing each hand separately, it will seem like you are playing without even thinking. This will make it much easier when you combine both hands to coordinate them both because you won’t be trying to think about two separate processes at once time.

2. Change your practice routine every three to six weeks. While it is important to have a consistently balanced practice routine, that doesn’t mean you have to practice the same stuff in the same way forever. Learn a different style or piece now and then. You may think if you like one style of piano piece better than others the best way to learn piano is to concentrate on that style. It is true that you should spend the most time on the style you like the best, but learning as many styles as possible will actually increase your versatility within the style you like best. You may even find yourself mixing in some things to create a whole new style of music that is your own as you learn piano.
