La Colina Jr. High Instrumental Music

Generally, the more a student practices, the better they will sound on their instrument. This is especially true if they are working with a tutor or teacher. Otherwise bad habits may develop by unguided practice.

A typical practice schedule for a successful student is about 30 minutes, five days per week. Even 5 to 10 minutes of practice each night can be effective. Spreading out practice time is important. Two hours of practice in one evening is not nearly as beneficial as four evenings of 30 minutes.
