Dear Parents and
Pupils,
Welcome to piano lessons!
This is what you need to know for
effective piano lessons with me:
·
Please email me at fionavalerielau@hotmail.com
with your email address so that you can be kept up to date with dates,progress,
requirements, news etc.
·
I communicate many things for parents
and pupils via this blog so please bookmark or favourite it and check it regularly: www.mrslaupiano.blogspot.com
·
Have a piano to practice on- digital or acoustic. A keyboard is not the
same and will hamper progress.
·
Bring all your music etc to every lesson. Each pupil will need their own piano bag - available from Daces and
Allegro or online from Amazon, Musicroom or Beaumont Music.
·
Regular practice is vital: Beginners need to do
10-15 mins a day but if you are preparing for an exam a minimum of 30 mins a
day, rising to 1-3 hours for higher grade exams, recitals, competitions and
diplomas. Parents, you will need to remind and encourage your children to
practice- a practice chart with stickers really helps.
·
All music can be bought or ordered from Daces, Broomfield
Rd, Allegro, High St, or online from www.musicroom.com
·
Please please please read the Practice Diary and use it to communicate with me especially if your child has lessons
at school and we rarely meet.
·
Take every opportunity to play and perform (at school, at home, at
church, or to friends) and to listen to music (live or recorded).
I look forward to the new year and
hearing everyone play and develop,
Fiona Lau MA, PGCE, LTCL, Dip ABRSM (performing),
CTABRSM, Grad Dip Mus.
