I heard many piano children's mothers say this: "As soon as the child gets on the piano stool, there are many things, either drinking water or going to the toilet, and you are busy." ”
"The child played wrong, didn't admit it, and told me to play it a few times to him, which made me dumbfounded."
What should we do in the face of the problems that children give us to stand in an invincible position?
First, you may wish to show your hand
Let the child admire that many of your parents are suffering from the fact that they did not have the conditions to learn music when they were young, and always wanted to make up for this regret, so that their children could make up for this "deficiency", but they let the "clever ghost" be an army, which can be difficult for the parents who are bitter.
In fact, learning the piano does not distinguish between ages, and learning piano at different ages has different advantages. If the child learns the piano fingers flexibly, the response is fast, then, adults learn to understand the piano strongly, self-control is strong, easy to get started, easy to digest, may wish to accompany the child after the piano lesson to try to touch the keys, you will find that learning music is not terrible.
If you can play a melody with your right hand, let the child play the accompaniment of the left hand for you, at this time, you and the child will find that the tacit understanding of the two "play" This piano is really interesting, and the melody that pops out with the hand is better and more harmonious than when practicing with one hand, so the mother has confidence, and the child will admire the mother more: Look, how happy it is to play the piano with the mother!
Second, you are secretly "monitoring"
Build a self-image
After the child learns the piano for a while, the mother often finds that her eyes and ears cannot keep up with the speed of the child's practice, so the mother gives up.
"I don't understand, you play it yourself." Imitating the words and deeds of adults is the nature of every child, "You don't know how to practice me yourself? "It makes sense to put your mother in the army. Children should be enlightened: "Mother has a lot of adult things to do, if I can practice every day like you, I will definitely play better than you." 」 To establish his own prestige, but also to tell him, "Mother's hands are doing housework, and her ears are standing high to listen to you play the piano!" "The child needs the attention of adults to him, don't ignore his existence, applaud him, draw him a five-pointed star, and give him a good evaluation like a teacher." He would take the daily practice seriously, because there was his mother enjoying the music he played.
Third, there is no mother's patience
There is no perseverance in children
The process of playing the piano is a process of exercising people's perseverance and endurance, many mothers lack patience themselves, and children will naturally give up learning the piano halfway.
For children, the first time to "play" the piano is a wonderful feeling, a behemoth can make a lion-like roar for a while, a moment to emit a bird-like bright singing sound, the black and white inlaid keyboard in a pair of small hands free to run can make a variety of beautiful sounds, too interesting. However, once officially seated on the piano bench, a pair of small hands are firmly guarded, every movement from each joint to the finger must be disciplined, and the freedom is lost, and the beautiful novelty disappears. What's even more disgusting is that there is less and less time to play, the right to watch TV is taken away, alas, how boring!
Therefore, trying to find a countermeasure and delaying time is the best policy. At this time, what is especially needed is patience, patient inspiration, patient encouragement, if you encounter the more difficult "bayonet" in the musical sentence, you must take this subsection out of the separate practice, repeat ten times until you are comfortable. For the rhythm that can't be matched, put the slowest speed one by one to close the back, don't be discouraged, encourage the child more, let him enhance self-confidence. Sometimes adults can try to practice with him in the high octave area, and the patience of adults will undoubtedly affect the child, so that he can persevere, get out of the predicament, and overcome fear.
When he passes the "minefield", he will be very happy and confident, and the companionship and participation of his mother at this time is the biggest motivation. It doesn't matter if you can't play the piano, but you can't do it without perseverance and confidence. The purpose of learning the piano is not only to develop children's intelligence, but more importantly, to cultivate children's courage and perseverance to learn to overcome difficulties. Good study habits and a tenacious character will accompany his future studies.
Therefore, as a mother, we must first have enough patience and confidence to properly help guide our children and achieve the true purpose of learning music.
