Linda Piatt: Solutions for Challenging Behavior in Music Practice

This week on the Time to Practice podcast, violinist, violist, music educator, and parent Linda Piatt joins us to continue a two-part series on supporting our children with music practice. This week we tackle the subject of challenging behavior in music practice. On our last episode Linda shared her best practices for home music practice and if you haven’t listened yet I highly recommend it. You can find that episode HERE.

In this installment of our conversation, Linda shares a framework from Dr. Ross Greene, that she has found especially helpful when working with her son. She recommends it for supporting students with the skill building needed to be successful in music lessons, especially when challenging behavior shows up.

Linda Piatt (Part Two): Solutions for Challenging Behaviors in Music Practice Time To Practice

"Everything that comes up in practice comes up in life and relationships. So now I'm not really one-on-one practicing with my kids, but we have this open line of communication. We have a lot of trust and have developed a lot of depth. Just the character development through the study of music also happens in the building of the relationships. It's been really hard and really worth it." Linda Piatt. Time to Practice podcast, episode 108
