Improve your practice! is the essential companion for pianists, enscapsulating Paul Harris's failsafe Simultaneous Learning approach. This preliminary book features six fun pieces which introduce the idea of 'exploring your piece' to pre-grade 1 pupils. The pieces develop ways of making the most of practice sessions - whatever their length. Most importantly, the wider musical skills of aural, theory, sight-reading, improvisation and composition will develop alongside, in a holistic educational system which develops more rounded musical intelligence.
In addition, there are photocopiable 'Explore Your Piece' to extend the technique to other repertoire, as well as make-your-own playing cards, a handy practice diary and some useful tips for parents.
