Best Way To Learn Piano – Top 10 Tips

If you’re looking for tips and tricks on how to play the piano, then look no further! Our top 10 tips to playing the piano will help kick-start your journey and will help you discover the best way to learn piano. They won’t make you an overnight sensation, but they will help you get on the right path to becoming a great pianist.

Table of Contents


Warm-Up

ONE

Are warm-ups really necessary? Well, to play the piano, you need to work hard, practice, and most importantly, have a great technique. And all of that can come with the toll of backache, arm pain, wrist tension, to name just a few things. So if you’d like to avoid those not-so-fun symptoms of piano playing, I’d advise a nice warm-up; just to get you started…

Warmup

Set Goals

TWO

We all need goals in life to move forward. Playing the piano isn’t just about sitting down to start playing; it’s about planning what you’re going to learn, and how you’ll get there. Macro-goals are brilliant. Don’t say “I’m going to learn the Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No. 2 in the next six days”, as quite frankly, that’s ludicrous! Instead, say you’ll learn two pages of the concerto. And when you do that successfully, celebrate.

This of course applies just as easily to learning Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, as it does to the Rachmaninoff.

Set goals, set your time for a practice session, and go and do it!

Top 10 Tips To Learning The Piano

Give yourself time for the basics

THREE

I know scales and arpeggios are not fun, but they are crucial. Just read about them here in our ‘Beginners Guide to Playing the Piano‘ – and you’ll find out why. Learning piano is difficult, but the quicker you understand that pretty much all classical music is either scale or arpeggio based, the faster you’ll make progress. So love them or hate them, the basics are here to stay!

Get Comfortable

FOUR

You’ll probably see your piano teacher once a week, at best. The majority of the time you’re practicing the piano by yourself, so make sure you are comfortable! Turn off your phone, have a glass of water nearby, and carve out time in your schedule to have some dedicated practicing. It doesn’t matter if it’s 15 minutes or three hours, it’s the quality of the practice within your practice routine that matters.

Get Comfortable Playing The Piano

Use A Metronome and Slow Down

FIVE

If you can’t play a piece of music in time, then you still have some work to do. “Flight of the Bumblebee” is played, depending on how you count it, at about 450bpm for instance. But don’t start trying to learn the piece at 450bpm. It’ll never happen! Start at 45bpm, and when you can play it at 45, speed it up to 55, and so forth until your muscle memory kicks in and you can play at the correct speed.

A metronome is sooooo useful. Make sure you listen to the beat, follow it, and never stop using it. It doesn’t matter if you’re a complete beginner, or a professional, we all use metronomes.  The model we recommend is:

Korg Ma-2 Review
Best Multi-function metronome
DESIGNED FOR: 400 hours of continuous operation

COMES WITH: A larger and more easily readable display

FEATURES: Timer, enhanced volume, and a useful ‘sound-out’ mode

SIX

We can’t stress this piano practice tip enough. Good musicians learn how to practice a fast piece at a tenth of its speed, and then gradually speed it back up to a normal pace. And what is the reason for this? Your brain!

When you play piano too fast, you’ll make mistakes. Every time you play the piano, your brain is learning what you play. It learns the correct notes you play, but it also learns the mistakes. So if you are playing too fast, and making lots of errors, your brain will be learning those errors.

The alternative, which is our suggestion, is to go slooooooow. This way, you won’t make errors, your brain will only learn how to play the piece correctly and you will improve your sight reading skills. When you gradually build up the speed, your brain also builds up the neurons of how to play the piece. And eventually, learning to play like this will mean minimal mistakes and your best performance. When you see on the sheet music is what you will play on the piano

Listen to others

SEVEN

Name your top 10 favourite pianists. You have to know what “great” sounds like to sound great yourself, so if you don’t have the list, go to YouTube and listen to more pianists. It’s such a simple tip that can be super effective.

Piano Top Tips

Remember your hand separate work

EIGHT

Your right hand and left hand work independently – so why do you always practice them at the same time? Sure, when you are playing to your teacher in the piano lesson you’ll use both hands, as it’s like a mini-performance. But when you are practicing alone at home, make sure you can play each hand separately. And try different things. Close your eyes and see if you can play your right-hand part alone without mistakes. Then when you try your left hand alone, play games like missing out the notes that your thumb plays. All of these things are difficult, they make you concentrate harder, and as a consequence, you’ll learn faster.

How To Place Hands On Piano

Learn popular songs

NINE

Playing piano isn’t always about the exercises and exam pieces that you need for your piano lessons. It should also be about fun and enjoyment. So make sure you are always playing a piece of music, or song, that you enjoy and is popular. Never forget you are learning to play the piano as an enjoyable way to spend your time!

Piano Top 10 Tricks

Remember to use these tips and tricks

TEN

It may sound obvious, but this list of tips and tricks will be helpful forevermore. Piano playing is a lifelong skill that you can acquire. And learning piano is not just about piano practice, piano lessons, reading the sheet music correctly, remembering all the chords and keys, a piano song, playing in tempo, playing the correct rhythm and using the correct fingers (I could literally go on all day with this list and include every piece of music theory). It’s about enjoying yourself. And like most things in life, if you see rapid progress, you’ll enjoy things more. And if you enjoy things more, you’ll make more progress. It’s the circle of life!

So remember to print off this list of top 10 tips, and refer back to it regularly.

FAQ’s

What is the most effective way to learn piano?

The most effective way to learn piano is to try to play every day. Choose a method of learning to play – with the most effective option private, one to one lessons.

How can I teach myself to play the piano?

You can teach yourself to play the piano by watching online tutorials. These ‘free piano lessons’ will only get you so far though. If you really want to progress, you need a great teacher.

What is the fastest and easiest way to learn piano?

The fastest way to learn piano is by having private piano lessons. But lessons alone won’t make you learn fast. All students need to practice their instrument regularly. Your piano practice is the thing that’ll make you musical. And it doesn’t matter if you’re on a cheap keyboard or an expensive grand piano, the practice part of your learning process is the element that will make you. As for the easiest way to learn the piano – there isn’t one! Learning any instrument is difficult, and all teachers will say the same thing. Practice makes perfect!

How can I improve my piano skills fast?

You can improve your piano skills by working on separate elements. Make sure your hand position and technique is correct. Make sure you are able to play your piece at a slow tempo first before speeding up. Work on your ‘ear training’. Make sure you know what chord is what. Work on your sight-reading. And above all else, have consistency in your practice. Then one day, you’ll be the pianist you want to be!

How long does it take to learn the piano?

Learning the piano is a lifelong journey. You never stop learning.

Do I Really Need To Follow The Fingerings In My Piano Music?

Yes! The fingerings in your piano music are there to help you navigate your way around the keyboard as easily as possible. They are there to help. And if you choose to ignore them, you are making life more difficult for yourself. So if you like difficult things – go right ahead and ignore the fingerings! If however, you want to become a better pianist, faster, then follow them at all times.

    I like how you mentioned that learning how to play the piano is about enjoying yourself. With that in mind, I would think that it would be important to make sure that your piano is tuned correctly before you attempt to play it. Playing the piano wouldn’t be very enjoyable if it is out of tune.

      That’s true! And I’ve played on some very out of tune instruments!

    LEARN POPULAR SONGS: As per my experience, this tip is really helpful because I used to listen to “All of me” by John Legend and that really helped me out in piano playing. This blog is awesome, Robert.

    It was interesting when you said that you must always choose a song or a piece of music that you enjoy. With this in mind, I will convince my son to consider purchasing beginner gospel piano books for him to be guided well. He has been interested in playing gospel songs since the start of the year, so it will make sense for him to consider your tips.

    I like how you mentioned that it is a good idea to set goals when you are trying to learn the piano. I think that it could be a good idea to find a piano teacher. A piano teacher would be able to help you reach your goals.

      Absolutely Thomas. Getting a great piano teacher is a really important thing to do; but it is also possible to lean at home from online resources too!

Ted's List is a project run by The Emery Foundation - a Micro-Trust of GivingWorks, registered charity number 107877.

The idea of Ted's List was setup to raise funds for musicians during the Covid-19 pandemic as part of the Get Musicians Working project.

Our 'Champions' are the musicians we think showcase their instrument to the wider public, and make a substantial difference to the popularity of their instrument family. Non of the 'Champions' are remitted in any way by Ted's List, and our list is completely impartial. If you have a favourite musician you would like to nominate to be added to our list of 'Champions', then please do contact us.
