The student will be given work that is reasonable to practice once a day for at least 10-20 minutes a day. Read More

Short term goals are more linked to repertoire and can be technical or musical. An example on the piano may be playing through a piece with a particular metronome marking. I have each of my students use a practice log so both the student and I can keep track of short-term goals. Read More
