5 Habits for Effective Practice
- Get all the notes correct (don't worry about rhythm, if it says f-e-f...make sure your are playing f-e-f!)
- SLOW practice (take it VERY slow for accuracy!)
- Clear Practice Target (think to yourself, I want to achieve THIS today!)
- Plan practice by event (SCHEDULE your practice time!)
- Regular review (listen to your assignments before and after you practice..they are on flipgrid and smart music!)
