| May 2, 2015 at 10:00 | comment | added | Tim | @Matthew Read - the clue's in the title - Music-Practice and Theory. Of course it could be construed that the question could relate to any subject, however, it doesn't. Motivating in music specifically, can be very different from motivating in other subjects | |

I did, however pick up guitar & bass & eventually made a career of it. They may love music, but not like their piano lessons. It doesn't make you a bad teacher, it just makes them 'teenagers' | |

| May 1, 2015 at 18:35 | comment | added | Todd Wilcox | One more note: when I taught myself guitar it was easy because I never felt like I was practicing anything, I was just playing guitar (very badly for the first few years). I would miss classes because I was playing guitar instead. I've never felt that way about another instrument. Loving music is good, loving the instrument is unstoppable. | |
| May 1, 2015 at 18:34 | comment | added | Todd Wilcox | I won't make this a real answer right now in case this is deemed to be a duplicate: I agree with the linked answer that catering to the student can help - I ask students what music they want to learn and teach that while working in "important" stuff like theory on the sly. Also, sometimes things outside your control will rule the day. When I was 13 I was very depressed and quit everything, including piano lessons. No teacher or teaching technique would have been able to stop me that in my case. | |
