Rather than the approach I had with my old teacher, whereby I would do short warm up exercises (dozen a day), then move straight onto the one piece I would learn the week, now I have: Hanon exercises and scales Czerny exercises Bach inventions Clementi sonatinas 3 Grade 6 pieces (exam this summer) Shes no doubt an amazing teacher, however, with so much going on, I feel that I'm never able to progress evenly on all books, and the week will dwindle by without much practice on any but 1 or 2. Does anyone else have experience on this - when what you would play for the lesson would be something you last played in last weeks lesson?! I was wondering if anyone could share their practice schedules: how/what they practice and how much time they devote to each component (scales, technique books, pieces, etc) Regards
