Learning the guzheng is a long and difficult process. A learner should not only have a strong interest and persistent practice, but also have the correct method and rich musical expression. A good interest in learning is the foundation of learning the guzheng well.

How to cultivate children's interest in playing the guzheng

interest is the best teacher. The ancient Chinese educator Confucius pointed out: "Those who know are not as good as those who know well, and those who love to know are not as good as those who enjoy themselves." It means: As for knowledge, those who understand it are inferior to those who like it, and those who like it cannot catch up with those who are addicted to it and take pleasure in it. By extension, learning the piano is the same.

Interest is the main driving force for young people to learn, and the key to learning guzheng is to cultivate children's interest in playing the zither. Generally, when children first start learning, they feel relatively fresh, and the timbre of the guzheng is also very beautiful, so it is easy to cultivate interest. But after a long time, I always practice some etudes, and my left hand hurts when I press the strings, and I start to retreat. How to develop a child's short-term interest into a stable interest? You can add some familiar tunes to the teaching, such as "Little Swallow", "Nanniwan", etc., so that the children can go back and play to their parents after learning, so as to satisfy the children's expressive desire. In addition, let the beginners regularly watch the wonderful performances of children of the same age, and use the example method to cultivate the children's interest, which can also receive good results.
