2. Learning piano instruction can be very enjoyable for
many reasons. Music has a lot of power. It speaks to the
heart and soul. It is really poems set to a melody.
Getting a teacher can help you learn easier than learning
on your own. Some people learn on their own because
they are self-starters. Decide which way works for you
and stick to it.
3. Teaching yourself is not that hard. Get a book from the
Internet or in a local music store. Buy it there and then
take it home to learn from it. Practice what is taught
there so you can improve. Improvement in everything in
life takes time. Be patient as you learn new things.
Change can be hard, but it is possible.
4. Lessons are also available online via a webcam. This is
when you speak to someone through a video camera
and a microphone. You can learn performance skills
from a recital where other students come together and
they get to demonstrate their new skills in front of
others. This is a great opportunity for anyone who wants
to grow.
5. Other instruments are also easy to learn such as guitar
or bass. Anything that one learns can be difficult, but is
worth the investment. It is worth it because it adds to
one's life immensely. You can now play for your friends
and family while before you only could hear it on the
radio or CD like everybody else. Having this skill is an
amazing addition to anyone's life.
6. Teachers could be in your area. Look for them online or
in a local phone directory. Make sure you have a comfort
level with them before you sign up for classes. You
should have a good rapport before you give them
money. If there is one teacher you are not comfortable
with then get another one so you can keep progressing.
7. If you do not have a good rapport with one particular
teacher, ask for another one. See if the next teacher is a
good fit for you. Keep trying to find a teacher until you
find the right one. Do not give up on getting on until you
have found the right one for you. Everyone has different
personality traits so it is good to find the one that fits
your personality.
8. If you do get to participate in a recital, make some
friends with the other students. This is a good way to
work on your social life. Ask them questions about their
life and get to know them. Music is a wonderful way to
meet people. Meeting them in a wholesome
environment is a good way to meet new friends.
9. Piano instruction is a great thing to learn because it
requires discipline which is good to master and it
requires one to focus. Practicing every day also builds a
good habit of persistence and not giving up. It is
important to not give up when the going gets rough.
That is just life and this must be handled so one persists
through uncomfortable times as well as times that are
comfortable.
