We tried piano lessons for a couple of months about a year and a half ago, but that turned him off to piano for about a year.
Thanks for any feedback you can give me!
I've never heard of the Piano Wizard, so I can't give any comments, but my DD6 is taking piano lessons, for about the last year now. We actually also did try piano lessons for her when she was about 4 or so, but it didn't work out well - AT ALL.
Since then we have moved and are taking lessons at a different place. The piano teacher makes all the difference. We found a teacher who is passionate about teaching KIDS music, not just making money off of lessons. She's really great with kids. Perhaps a change in teacher is all that is needed?
Also, my DD loves playing the piano because she's good at it. The key to good music lessons is finding something they love to do. My DH tells the story about how he wanted to learn the Keyboard (like Ross in Friends
) when he was younger. But his mom forced him to take Piano lessons instead of the keyboard --- he hated that and never took music lessons again. Maybe a different instrument may pique his interest?
Good Luck!
