Don’t repeatedly read the same sheets, know when to move on to a different sheet, section or practice of piano, whatever you done wrong is what you focused on in piano until you get it right but don’t read the whole thing over and over unless you are more focused on the flow of playing the piano instead of the failures
Very good video. I agree with you; better to play relatively simple pieces well than to learn a more difficult piece with 'fracture points' in it because your current level of technique doesn't match the technical requirements of a piece.
I've been trying to push myself from 0-100😂. It kinda drove me crazy, I wasn't really learning and it made me lose interest. I thought I wasn't practicing enough. I'm taking it slow now, paying more attention to playing scales. Thank you for this video.
Woah! you've changed a lot in the past 5 years. You look like a different person. I highly recommend Brian Crain - I remember watching your video back then.
@amerebondservanthey I think when I started it was 1-2 hours a day but I was very consistent with it. Learning all scales and arpeggios as a beginner is quite an undertaking, so take it slowly and stick to a few scales and their arpeggios. As you get better you can learn and discover more scales and arpeggios with more sharps or flats. No rush. Feeling 'good' at them Is a lifelong endeavour. I am quite good at them but there's always small Improvements being made. So just try to Improve them beyond what you've been able to do and don't worry about anyone else.
Lots of great advice. I can't believe it's already been 6 years!
I know right? Time flies!
I just discovered ur channel and I wanted to say these are some problems I have only just noticed recently with a new teacher. This was very helpful

Exactly right!

Thank you for this video.
Yeah it can definitely be demotivating. I'm glad that you're focusing on the basics and being more patient.

You inspired me to learn happy birthday on the piano. Will keep you updated on my progress x
Great advice, I agree with all of it, especially the learning theory one.
Great advice for a beginner pianist like me. Thank you
How much time do you needed for the sight reading???? Great video! realistic!
Well said, feeling the same learning as adult (tho distant from your progress!)
Any recommendations for starting keyboards to get?
nice tengu
Man this is so real haha
Are you a full time student studying piano? Do you work, if so how do you find time to play piano?
I worked part-time in the afternoon- evenings mon-fri. I practice in the mornings-afternoon before work.
