How To Ensure Your Student is Ready for a Performance
Welcome, teachers! If we haven’t met before, I’m Janna Williamson, and I’m passionate about preparing my piano students for performance and creating a healthy, positive performance culture in my studio.
To that end, I have six things I do every time I help a student prepare for a recital, exam, festival, competition, or any other performance, no matter how formal or informal it is.
Click any of these titles to read more in depth, or watch the video below to hear me discuss all six:
In each of my YouTube videos on my How To Teach Intermediate Repertoire playlist, I try to help other teachers with #3 and #4 on the list above: solving technical problems and facilitating a student's emotional connection. If you haven’t checked it out, click the image below to see all of the videos in the playlist. There’s something from every historical time period with pieces ranging from early intermediate to late intermediate - there are over 30 videos in the playlist now! (Thank you to all of you who have watched my videos and subscribed to my channel!)
Teachers - do you have other tried and true ways for getting your students ready to perform? Leave a comment below and let me know. I’m always looking for new ideas.
If you have questions about the course - or anything else! - leave a comment below or use the contact button above. I look forward to hearing from you.
