    Thanks for these tips Allysia! I just started teaching this year and your channel has helped me a lot with my own development at the piano and filling the gaps in my knowledge abt music as a whole which has helped so much in figuring out how to teach well and just have more fun at the piano. Been a subscriber of yours for years now and loving that you're making this content for teachers! Looking so forward to the teachers webinar this weekend! So much love and gratitude, you're awesome 💙💙

    Great video! Thank you. I don't teach piano. I'm a classical guitarist and I'm now teaching myself piano in the evenings. This video is giving me something to think about in terms of longer term goals / plans for myself (for all my musical stuff, not just piano). Thanks so much.

    Fresh out of school in 2020, it was chaos so I decided to wait until this August to start teaching. I taught a bit before heading to Uni. But I feel quite rusty 😅😅😅 SO Thank you sooooo much for the tips!

    Thank you for these tips I’ve written them all down, I really want to be a kind teacher like my own and you, and have a long term relationship with my students. I don’t want my students feeling like they are disappointing me or feeling pressured to perform. I really need to lesson plan properly now haha, also been struggling how to structure leisure students, so thanks for the info on still making them do the grade level requirements but not needing to do exam. Thank you 🙏

    I love you vids! I’ve been watching your videos for years and I love the rich content you share but also the simple way that you explain everything. I was intrigued by a video you made a while back about ragtime and its history. I was wondering if you can make a video about three main styles of music in the Caribbean Latin America which are Merengue, Salsa, and Bachata (I ask because I’m Puerto Rican and we listen to and play these styles quite often). Also, can you make a video about the history of Federico Mompou who is my favorite piano composer ever? He was an impressionist pianist form Spain who was so shy that he never got famous much until his death since many of his pieces were written for his best friends. I personally love is “Canciones Y Danzas” álbum and his Préludes. Keep doing what your doin cuz I love it!

    "...quit lessons and then come back to it 30 years later..." (Ha! Sounds a lot like me!) When I was a kid my teacher was a very accomplished pianist, she gave local recitals, etc. but we didn't have much of a rapport. I started high school, life got more complicated, and unfortunately I dropped piano. I can see now how important that teacher-student connection is, as Allysia talked about. Things might have gone a lot differently...

    From the perspective of someone who ended up leaving the piano for almost 9 years because my teacher didn't follow tips 4 and 8, this is really good advice for future teachers. My teacher from when I was about 10 to when I was 16 was a hardcore perfectionist and would guilt-trip, insult, and belittle me because of how I prioritized my other after-school activities instead of piano, and thus didn't practice as much as he would have liked. He was someone whose students would often get awards in state competitions and gain acceptance to conservatories, and he resented the fact that I didn't necessarily want to be pushed to that high of a standard. While I became very good at piano and got to state finals twice (though I never thought of myself as good because of how my teacher would belittle my skills), I ended up losing all motivation to play piano because of it. It wasn't until about a year ago, as a 26-year-old PhD student in a non-music field (chemical biology), that I started taking interest in piano again and strived to re-establish a good relationship with the instrument. Now, about 10 months into my comeback, I'm able to play somewhat advanced pieces (roughly RCM level 9-10 and Henle level 5-6) and am enjoying the process of regaining my skills. I just hope that future teachers could take your advice instead of focusing on winning, competitions, and expecting all of your students to treat piano like it's their main activity.

      Yup, I always hated teacher like that. They’re kids! They don’t need to be perfect, they have other activities and schoolwork and events, they cannot dedicate their entire life to one activity just for your sake! My little sister is going through this with her extracurricular activities, where all her teachers have too many expectations! She has around 7 extracurriculars (English, math, Chinese, badminton, dance (3x a week), piano, and curling) and her English, dance, and piano teachers are way to expectant of her! She’s 12, she’s a kid, she had to enjoy life while she can, it’s ridiculous to get mad at a child who is exploring life to dedicate their every day to practicing a single subject.
      I personally quit mostly because of my parents’ expectations (I still play casually, and I also teach piano now! But I don’t take lessons anymore) but I just hate it when everyone in your life expects so much from you. People have so many things going on in life, it’s just so unrealistic and super discouraging trying to push them like that!

    hey, just a friendly comment on what you could do better in my opinion.. it would help me so much if you edited your videos a little, for example adding just a little banner in the corner with the topic you're talking about in the moment.. thank you for the video

    I often find it hard to set a long term plan when I dont know how long a student has planned to take lessons. Sometimes they are told it only takes 3 months to learn the piano. Should this be addressed with the manager?

    You have got to be kidding? GIVE MONEY BACK FOR A LESSON NOT TAKEN? NEVER! You reschedule. Find a time reschedule. If they don't make it up, they forfeit the lesson. If month to month, find a time within a month. If it is a calendar year, within 3 months. Make sure that as a private teacher, you have that in a written agreement along with fees and scheduled lessons signed both by the teacher and student before a single lesson begins. Discuss this with a lawyer for the details. It will save you a lot of time and grief.
