Is struggle a requirement for success? In today’s episode, we unpack a deeply ingrained belief in music education—and beyond—that says, because I struggled, you should too.

Instead of reinforcing outdated traditions, how can we empower students with smarter, more effective learning strategies? Let’s rethink the struggle bus and make music education more inclusive, engaging, and fun. 🚀🎶

Hey lovely teachers! 🎹 Today, we’re diving into a simple yet powerful practice hack: Scales Before School! This quick, five-minute habit helps students (and even us teachers!) stay consistent with their practice by fitting in a small session before the day gets busy. It’s not just about scales—it can be anything: a technical exercise, a piece, or even a theory game. The key is touching the piano daily, building a routine that sticks. Tune in to hear why this tiny shift can make a huge impact! 🎧✨ #PianoPractice #ScalesBeforeSchool #MusicRoutine
