When is the best time to start private lessons? The earlier the better? Is learning the recorder in 3rd grade at school enough?
At some point in their musical careers, most students want to quit. As a parent who has invested in lessons and an instrument, you might be upset at their lack of interest. Or maybe you’re confused because they seem to be progressing well, but suddenly lost motivation.
