[Today's article “3 Helpful Tips for Parents of New Piano Students” was written by Jessica Peresta of The Domestic Musician.]
How Parents Can Help New Piano Students
Parents, encourage your kids to practice at least 10 minutes every day, help them with theory homework, and make sure you know what is being taught in the lessons so you can help them practice. Stay involved and have your kids know that you are a part of their learning the piano and are an encouragement to them really helps so much.
What Kind of Piano to Get
I would recommend a Yamaha DGX230 keyboard, which is great for beginners. Any Yamaha brand of piano is great!
How to Take Lessons Without Leaving Home
I would love to be your child's piano teacher. My Level 1 Piano Course is perfect for the beginning piano student.
For this course, students need a computer or electronic device to watch the lessons on and a keyboard or piano. There are times in each lesson where students are asked to pause the video to practice a certain part. A Parent Tips Paperis also included in each lesson.
