Music Tip Monday

Here in Oregon it is looking a lot like fall already.  The rain is coming down and students have a week left before the school year begins.   Many of us are gearing up to restart busy schedules as teachers, parents and students.   Starting this week I will be posting tips for musicians (and their parents or teachers) each Monday.   You can subscribe to the blog through email (the tab on the right hand side of the blog should get you started) and that way you’re sure not to miss any updates.    If you have topics you’d like to see discussed on the blog this fall please send me an email and let me know at suzukitriangle@gmail.com!

Music Monday Tip – Monday August 30th, 2010

~  As you are putting together your schedule for the coming school year, make time in each day’s schedule for practice.  Often we schedule our lessons to fit into our busy schedule from the start and then have trouble later getting in enough practice time.  Be sure to add practice to each day’s schedule when deciding how many activities to be involved in.  Playing an instrument is so much more fun when there is enough time to devote to it!
