Beginner training plan
Your first lessonThe first lesson is about building comfort, confidence, and connection. We start by getting to know the student’s musical interests, goals, and any prior experience. I introduce basic fundamentals (such as posture, breathing, hand position, or sound production depending on the instrument) in a relaxed, encouraging way. The lesson focuses on exploration rather than perfection, helping the student feel successful while setting clear expectations for growth.
Lesson 2-3Lessons two and three build on the foundation established in the first session. Students begin developing consistent technique, basic rhythm and pitch awareness, and simple musical patterns or exercises. We reinforce proper habits, introduce short practice routines, and begin working with simple musical material. By this stage, students should feel more confident and start recognizing progress in their sound, coordination, and understanding.
Lesson 4-10During lessons four through ten, students experience noticeable growth in technique, control, and musical understanding. We expand exercises, introduce beginner-level repertoire, and strengthen rhythm, timing, and tone. Students learn how to practice more independently, correct mistakes, and apply skills to real music. Lessons become more structured, goal-oriented, and rewarding as confidence and consistency increase.
Lesson 11+After lesson eleven, instruction becomes more personalized and focused on long-term development. Students continue refining technique, learning more challenging music, and developing musical expression and confidence. Lessons adapt to the student’s goals—whether performance, skill mastery, or enjoyment—while reinforcing strong fundamentals, discipline, and musical independence.
