Graduating JMC

Finally, after 2 years of struggling to the music class, my daughter had completed the JMC course. We just had the JMC assessment at Yamaha, Kelana Jaya. It was like a test, so serious, only 1 parent is allowed to go with her in the room together with her teacher (who will play the piano) and the assessor. I felt so proud of her though she had been complaining for 2 years, nagging her to practise, a lot of crying and scolding along the way. Glad it was over!

Junior Music Course Part 2

My girl has completed Term 2 and going to Term 3. Four students had dropped/withdrawn from this course. Not easy, weekly commitment and daily discipline to force your kid to practise!!!
I can say my girl is not interested but I told her that she has to complete the whole course, which is 2 years. Then, she can chooose for some other activities that she likes.
So for parents, my advice is you have to be determine, and prepared for this 2 years commitment if you wish to enrol your kids for this JMC.
Anyway, this course is a good exposure on finger exercise & keyboard.

Junior Music Course

I just bring my 4 years old daugther for the trial class for 'Junior Music Course" conducted at Peony's Music, Centrepoint last weekend. And both of us enjoy it! I will definately enroll her this week!

Each lesson is about 3 months and she is expected to play a song only after 4 terms...Not bad, as they learn from very basic, listening and understanding keys and notes..But, mum has to accompany them which I find interesting, at least, I can learn together with her!
