I've said it before and I'll say it again you are one of the most underated youtubers ever, The information is actually useful and not just "practice 20 hours a day" thank you for being a better teacher than anyone else on this platform.
Hi ! Nice video. I think the Pomodoro technique Is really useful. I would like to share my exprience of a beginner to intermediate player: Personally I don't recommend to rely on a strict time, it can make you anxious, or want you to finish sooner and do more mistakes. I usually play 30 Min as warm up, 30 min for technique, then I pause a bit and start to study my repertoire. You could also consider to add some EASY sheet music at the end of your practice session, only for getting used to read sheets and learn new pieces quicker. (If i would be a beginner I would do 10 min. of warmup, then 10 minutes to 20 of technique, like scales and arpeggios) When I practice for pieces I tend to spend 45 minutes ( I don't count it but I have a watch next to me), and then pause 5 to 10 minutes and repeat or take a longer break and go for a walk, do some stretching (that's really important). As you sayed, theory can be really useful, if you have time for it, study at least all the major, minor scales, and the type of different chords (Major, minor, diminshed augmented, etc..) Music theory Is a really powerful tool for remember a piece more quickly, because (as concert pianist do), you can recall pretty every section of the piece, and you will see that there are harmony pattern everywhere. Sorry for my long text, I wish I can help someone (Please, don't take seriously what I just sayed, it's only my humble opinion). Thanks for this nice videos, you are doing a fabolous job, keep it up ! 🤗🎶
I've been feeling burnt out over the last few months and haven't been playing the piano for whatever excuse. However, I am grateful for the lessons you've shared, and hope that I can apply it to my practice sessions!
I had hit a wall with my practice. Just not improving and sitting hours trying. This practice timing is an absolute gem. You are amazing. Soooo happy I found you a while ago. 👍👍👍👍👍👍😊
Super useful to see how you actually practice. We need to see that genuine approach where you show what a pro actually does to learn a piece. Awesome stuff.
Another great video! I've seen a lot of teachers focus on small techniques or give suggestions that are simply too vague or abstract to be applied. You stand out because your videos consistently describe "systems" of goal-setting and practice that are VERY powerful. Everyone else seems to be focusing at the beginner level... but once you have the fundamentals down, how do you bridge the gap between beginner and advanced? You have to have a special gift to communicate the answer to that question... and you've got it! You've only made a handful of videos so far, but you've already gone to the top of my "Piano Videos" list. Thanks! Keep up the good work!
Best thing you said is CONSISTENCY IS KING! Your straight forward style is helpful, more stuff on basics for beginners would be good, like posture, when and how to play, how to practice again , if you've stopped for awhile, like me sadly.....if you can't do the basics , how can you learn the piano well?? Thanks!
Burnout is largely what you said - tons of effort yet low yielded results. Part of it is also largely expectations, depending on what it is you're doing, focusing on
Lieu, play slower and keep getting slower until you can play the section without error. That’s what you told us all. I hate theory too. I am much older than you and you are so right learning on the job always gives you a better base and a broader understanding. 👍
Hello , Nice video man, is there any exercices or music pieces that can make me more fluid and less choppy when playing fur elise ? I started playing 3 months ago and i have a lot of theory knowledge and can play moonlight sonata mvt 1 .
Super helpful and relatable!
