I don’t like practicing piano. My mom paid for a whole year of lessons and can’t get a refund, so I HAVE to go. But I HATE practicing. I need a motivation, and it can’t just be “just do it” or because my mom and teacher will yell at me. I want some honest help please.
She just turned four, has had some musical experience in “Music Together”, which is like Kindermusik. She enjoys music and has a great memory for melodies and songs. Her attention span is about 25-30 minutes when listening to something like a Mozart piano concerto. Is there a better way than simply flipping through the yellow pages?
It seems like you all are saying I shouldn’t find her a teacher, which is not the answer to my question. She likes to play on the piano already, can read words, sing the diatonic scale acsending and descending (and some simple tunes by tonal names, thanks to The Sound of Music), do addition and subtraction and count to 100. Going by her motivation, her attention span, and her cognitive skills, she seems ready for some structured musical instruction.
