When should we accelerate our piano students forward, and when is it better to adjust and take a different approach?


To challenge or not to challenge?


In this episode, we explore the delicate balance between pushing students forward or decelerating that motion a bit. It's an art, not a science—


🔑 Key takeaways:



  • Learn the personalities of the students for which kids love a challenge, and which get overwhelmed easily

  • Involve the parent every step of the way

  • Why labeling pieces "easy" or "hard" can miss the bigger picture

  • Navigating student challenges, from small wins to overcoming difficulties

  • Practical tips for pushing students just enough while keeping their growth steady and fun


This episode offers strategies to keep progress steady without overwhelming them. Tune in to find out how to strike balance in your teaching!
