[quote=Anonymous]I’m a former music teacher. You cannot push it too much, but at the same time not enough means he won’t see changes that motivate him. Try to build up to 20-30 minutes, with rewards if need be. I think 90% of progress for children under 10 is due to parental effort in the first 2-3 years. It’s a lot of work to get it off the ground. Be encouraging, use games… but also use some discipline. To some extent this is an opportunity to learn grit. Not all learning and work in life is going to be fun and games.[/quote]
