Tips for practising

  1. Listen to the whole song once before you start, and hum along to fix the melody in your ear.
  2. Start slow. Lower the tempo to 60–70% and only speed up when you can play a phrase without mistakes. Full speed is about 112 beats per minute.
  3. Learn each hand separately with the Left and Right buttons in the full piano, then put them together.
  4. Practise in short sessions. Ten focused minutes a day beats an hour once a week.
