Tips for Parents and Students


n this section of The Piano Education Page, we offer useful bits of advice for students of the piano, children and adults, and their parents. These tips concern matters which are sufficiently general to be of value to most students of the piano. They should not be taken literally against the advice of your own piano teacher, since he or she knows your personal needs better than anybody else. If there is a topic that's missing here that you would like us to address, just let us know by e-mail.
