In Between Lessons:
Parents are very important to the success of the musical development of the child. It is important that the child feels the support of the parent therefore I suggest, especially at the beginning levels, a parent be present while the child is practicing or working on any homework assigned. Practice times should be consistent, 5 days a week ( beginners starting with 10-15 minute sessions and increasing as needed ) and at times when there is little distraction.
Note: Please make sure that hands are clean prior to coming to lessons, many other hands will be playing the same piano!
