Abstract: The practice of practicing music should be a meaningful experience that produces musicians with a lifelong love of music. The use an organized practice system that includes goal setting, specific practice strategies, self and teacher assessment, and the development of intrinsic motivation, lays a foundation for musical success. In the classroom, teachers model efficient practice techniques and establish classroom routines that encourage cooperation, and reward individual progress instead of competition. Evidence provided by research demonstrates the need of teachers to abandon the practice of “time served” and recorded, to training young musicians to systematically practice.
