After that, I started the second technique and was seeing results from it within a week, again with only a few minutes of practice a day. The entire process to fully improve accuracy-wise took maybe 6 months. | |

It will be hard and take a long time, but give immense satisfaction when you get it right, and train your ear a lot. This applies to any instrument but the advantage of piano is that you'll be able to "see" the way the melodies work in a transparent way, that it takes no training or physical strength to press individual piano keys and that the notes are intuitively laid out. | |
