Amy Immerman, Founder of Cincinnati Music Academy (a school that she helped grow to 750 students), joins the show to discuss motivation! Is it our job to motivate students? How can we help spark motivation? How can parental involvement help? We both talk about our own practicing and motivation growing up. Amy describes some engaging practice games, a 100-Day Practice Challenge, how events keep students excited, and advice on vanquishing “energy vampires!”

Some great takeaways from the show:

  • Fast practice equals slow progress, slow practice equals fast progress. No practice equals no progress.
  • You don't practice until you get it right, practice until you don’t get it wrong.
  • Students do not fail. Teachers fail, parents fail, and society fails.

Amy Immerman is the Founder of Cincinnati Music Academy, a school that she helped grow to over 40 teachers and 750 students. She has given over 80 presentations at local, state and national conferences in 19 states and Canada.
