Hello Mario. I firmly believe in playing with students to reinforce timing & developing ensemble skills. My question is how do we as teachers find a way for students to practice this way at home? I video-record lessons using a Zoom HD recorder so that students and parents can review throughout the week. I have been starting to record all of my students pieces in my home studio and have students listen & play along with recordings while at home. However, this can have a negative affect on reading
@musicalaccents I think audio recording or video recording your playing of a piece is an excellent way to encourage them to practice "along with you" at home, especially if there isn't already a recording that is available for them to play along with. As long as it's not overdone, I don't think it will have as negative an effect on their reading. Rather, I think it provides an aural connection with what's on the printed page.
in my case, sometimes me and my piano teacher do the opposite. instead of he playing along with me, i play along with him.
