About the lesson

No one likes practicing...until you find the right ways! As a strong advocate for knowledge co-creation and active learning, I believe in "inspiring how to teach YOURSELF how to play" rather than just "teaching you how to play." It is not about practicing hard, it is all about practicing smart! As an ECON and Music Double Major myself, I am always looking for the best strategies to maximize the output of my limited practice time. Together, we will discover ways to craft effective and efficient practice plans that align with your preferences, schedule, and goals. Happy practicing!
