Practice Strategies
MasterClass Group Lessons
are instructional group meetings
– students of different levels
– critique of selected repertoire
– incorporation of student demo with a quarterly Practice Strategy
This instructional opportunity provides students with exposure to
more repertoire and opportunities to share their pieces with their piano friends.
‘DRIVE-BY’
Learning Strategy
October MasterClass Practice Protocol
Spaced Practice
Space out practice over the day instead of in one block of time. Forgetting and then relearing a piece over time strengthens your memory bank.
‘Drive-By” or stop and practice before dinner, then ‘Drive-By’ through a couple of assignments before school and see what is remembered after school.
Keep music open on the piano for the next ‘Drive-By’ practice session
