Practice Tips

Try and practice each of your pieces up to 5 times each.

If you are playing a song that requires both hands, first practice your right hand part, followed by your left hand part and then when you have learnt both parts, try playing hands together.

If you are having trouble with a particular part of a song, practice this part until it is right.

Try and aim to practice 5 times a week for 10 minutes each time. 

Treat practice time as part of your homework routine.

Practice in front of an audience such as your Mum and Dad.

Some ideas about
when to practice:

During television ad breaks - this will give you a 3 minute session. Do this 3 times in one night and you have done 9 minutes practice.

Before you brush your teeth either at night or in the morning.

While you wait for your dinner to be cooked.

As soon as you get home from school.
