Teaching the history as well as practically
While deciding the music lessons one must decide the first objective of the lessons. So as to discuss earlier before the commencement of the music lessons and this will give the clear cut idea as what is there in the lessons then targets are being set accordingly.
There is no need to include all the lessons. Which are more important are decided first as quality is more important than quantity that is the capacity of the students. How much one can learn from the lessons? So sufficient lessons are given to them so that quality is maintained accordingly
To make the music lessons more adventurous it is put in several classes for the discussions. And encourage the students in the meanwhile so that they do their best. And one can ask them to interview their parents so that they improve their skills and can understand it better. Clauses in which their favourite stuffs are being taught can be held for their interest.
To get complete understanding of music they should give proper idea of both the theories as well as the practical´s. However a good faculty can do this better who has both the knowledge of theory a well as practical. Theory of music can be taught in between the practical lectures also so that it doesn´t become boring and proper idea can be given on the music which soothes your ear.
That is why proper guidance off theory is necessary. This will help them to learn faster as they know the era and history and will make that interesting
And this is also helps in playing the string instrument as well
As information on the evolution of the music can be told, that music is being evolved from our daily environment like pat sound of rain, chirping of the birds, throwing the stone in the water etc. Can be given
Therefore perfect mix of theory as well as practical will make the lessons easily understandable and interesting too and will create the interest of the students also.
Hence combination of the two should be taught for better learning. As music is the best part of the life and this will also help in learning various other types of instruments also.
