Although finding the right piano teacher for your little toddlers is challenging. Remember that kids are kids; therefore they prefer to play and have fun rather than learn seriously.

The piano teacher will be your kids guide to appreciating music. They can really shape your children’s mind whether music is fun or scary.  So choose your kids piano teachers well.

Follow these simple tips and suggestions on how to find the right piano teacher for your kids.

• Most common mistakes of parents are hiring a piano teacher with a great reputation and qualities. Although all of it is important but not all piano teachers are capable of teaching hyperactive kids. Find a piano teacher that enjoys teaching kids.
• It’s important that you’re kids feel safe and comfortable when having the beginner piano lessons. You can take your children to a school that specializes on music lessons. The problem is that some teachers are disciplinarian who in some cases do punishments to students that’s why it is still advisable to have private piano lessons for your little kids. You can supervise the teaching and also keep your kids safe. Just make sure you r kids will be safe and will enjoy the piano lessons.
• Is the piano teacher capable? Yes, being good with children is a must in looking for your kid’s piano teacher but he/ she should also be capable with teaching piano lessons. At least somebody with a musical background or experience with teaching piano lessons for kids and beginners.

So that’s how you look for a piano teacher for your kids. But if you want to teach your kids yourself especially little toddlers then you can self-teach them. Not possible? Not anymore. You can try some piano dvd lessons or piano software such as Keyboard Tots to teach your little toddlers beginner piano lessons for kids just by yourself.

You can teach themselves just like a real piano teacher.

Why Pianist Feel Stress

We practice a lot, especially when there’s a performance coming up or when we have a new music piece we want to learn. Or sometimes, pianists just want to play and practice hard. This leads to “Overuse Syndrome” There isn’t really a known cause of this syndrome, but it happens to many pianists and other people. For example, a mother obsessed in cleaning, a pianist obsessed with perfection and piano playing.

Here is a list of common mistakes we do without knowing it:

• Too much practice without any rests or breaks.
• Excessive practicing when trying to learn new piano sheet music
• Practicing too quickly and excessively after a rest or break.
• Improper seating and posture often results to back, neck or shoulder pain.
• Wrong piano techniques and piano playing body positions.
• Overly curved position of the hand
• Awkward position of the wrist, whether it’s too high or too low can cause stress and pain.
• Wrist not moving much
• Influence of others with little knowledge
• Expecting all pianists to do the same work/ practice for the same hours, etc.
• Trying to learn new piano sheet music in just one practicing is not possible even to professional musicians.
• Trying to copy how exactly it was recorded even though it is not possible due to editing.
• Trying new piano sheet music that are beyond you and your physique
• A grim attitude toward practice — not having while piano playing.
• Not warming up

Any of these conditions can affect everyone whether they’re piano beginners, intermediate or even professionals. Understanding the problems will lead to good resolutions.

Happy playing.
