Practice Tips
Don’t forget that the rhythm is just as important as the notes.
Playing something hard makes the old stuff easier.
Play at a faster tempo to make the normal tempo feel easier.
It’s easier to start fresh than to try to relearn something you’ve practiced wrong.
Memorize your lessons for a challenge.
Raise your standards. Rate yourself each time you play from 1(bad) to 5(great). Be honest and shoot for as many 5s as possible.
Who's the teacher when you're at home? You are. Be a good one.
Try teaching someone else what you're trying to learn.
Practice during the commercials of your favorite show.
Don't accept less than your best when practicing.
Sometimes it is easier to practice if you leave your instrument out on a stand so that it is ready to play. Make sure your instrument is secure and make sure it is OK with your parents.
There are 1 million ways to get it wrong and 1 way to get it right, find the right way.
Don't forget to review songs you already know.
Practice the same way that you are going to perform.
Always remember speed follows accuracy.
