[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD studies with Emil Chudnovsky (search for his name here; there is a VERY good/informative thread about him, and it's 100% true), who is technically in DC, but draws from MD mostly. He is VERY good at what he does, but if you're looking for a warm and fuzzy kind of teacher, he's totally not it. He is very conservative, technical, and Russian in his approach, and unforgiving with sloppiness.[/quote] :-) Emil will not tell you how long to practice, or even if you need to practice daily. It's all about intentional and effective critical thinking applied to your playing - your brain should be tired before your arm. But what that means in practice for children, especially primary-aged kids who have no idea what the previous sentence means, is that they do need to put in the work, every day. Otherwise they'll come into the next lesson without adequate preparation and will be told so in no uncertain terms. Perhaps not what OP is looking for...[/quote]
