[quote=Anonymous]Taught private music for 25 years and there is probably a minimum weekly amount they expect for practice in middle school & high school. For me it’s 45 minutes a day. Sure, life happens and a few weeks might go without practice but if a kid is just not practicing it’s obvious…..I usually ask them to leave as either it’s not their thing or I’m not the person that inspires them. I don’t advise parents to remind kids as it becomes a power struggle then. That’s hard to do when you have a highly talented kid. :) My now college age kid with ADHD went full steam into STEM subjects, did TJ in high school and is now getting two engineering degrees in college. Tried a few different musical activities but nothing stuck past a year or two. It was always math, science, and coding from a very young age. Let the kid pick. [/quote]
