Practicing slowly allows me to press the strings before I play, which helps avoid mistakes and ensures clarity in sound.

Practicing means playing at a very slow tempo, allowing me to control every movement of my left and right hands.

I practice more now than I used to, and I appreciate my practice sessions much more as I get older.

I separate practice from playing for enjoyment; mixing the two can lead to insecurities during performances, so I keep them distinct. When I practice, I'm problem-solving rather than just playing.

I prefer shorter, focused practice sessions over longer, unfocused ones because quality is more important than quantity.

Practicing takes patience and focus; it may feel long, but the actual time spent can be shorter than expected due to the intensity of concentration.

If I have a short time to prepare, I switch to higher gears to get things done more quickly, and practicing twice a day can be more effective than once a day. I focus on being efficient with my practice, spending time on what truly matters and avoiding distractions.

As I gain experience, I learn to choose fingerings more quickly based on how my fingers work.

I started organizing my time to practice less but achieve more, which I encourage my students to do as well.
