Due to the improvement of living standards, people's pursuit of music is also increasing. Guzheng, a national musical instrument, is favored by students and parents for its beauty and ease of entry. Because children are usually under heavy learning pressure, many parents prefer guzheng as an enriching children's spare time, which can not only cultivate artistic sentiments, but also inherit and carry forward our national musical instruments and national culture. However, due to the small age of children, the cognitive ability of body and mind is still in the development stage, so there are certain difficulties in actual teaching, mainly in the following points:

1. Lack of concentration in class. Due to the lack of concentration of children, I will let them take a break for a few minutes in the middle of class to drink some water, relax, and then continue, or let them listen to the recording, watch the VCD of the taught song, and then follow Sing together and beat the rhythm at the same time, so that they will not feel that the class time is very long, they will not feel very boring and tired, but they will be more interested in learning.

Second, the practice time is not enough. Every time I return to class, students will always tell me: Teacher, I don’t have time to practice the piano. Because students are busy with school homework and there are many extracurricular interest training programs, it is often eight or nine o’clock in the evening when they finish their homework. . The next day I got up early again, so parents were afraid of affecting the quality of their children's sleep, so they could only let them sleep first. In this way, the time to practice the piano is greatly shortened, so I will let them make a schedule and try to arrange time to practice the piano every day, even if it is only an hour, as long as they can keep in touch every day.

Third, the practice method is wrong. When most students practice at home, they play the songs from the beginning to the end several times, even if they have already practiced, so each song is not well practiced, and it does not sound good when played. On this issue, I will ask them to practice the piece in sections when they go home, and practice with both hands accompaniment.

4. Unable to persevere, lack of patience. Today's students are impatient in doing things, and the same goes for practicing the piano. They don't want to learn for a while. I always feel that practicing the piano is a very fortunate thing. If I don’t practice at home, I will be criticized by my parents, so I don’t learn it at all. So every time a freshman signs up, I tell students and parents that learning the piano is not a simple and fun thing. Practicing the piano is relatively hard, and it takes hard practice to get results. If you just want to learn to play, then don't learn. If you decide to learn, then you must study hard, no matter how tired or hard you are, you must persevere, and you cannot give up halfway. Whether it's learning the piano or learning other things, you must have a certain amount of patience, and the most important thing is to persevere.

5. Lack of musicality and lack of expressiveness. It is often heard that when students are practicing, they have no feeling for the song at all, and they always play it frequently and faintly, with no obvious strength or weakness. So before I teach the tunes, I will let them preview, listen to the recording, and hum along, so that they won't feel lost when they learn. I'll deal with the whole song in detail after I'm proficient in practice. For example, when studying the music "Spring Miao", the author uses "Spring Miao" to describe the vigorous vitality and bright future of children. The melody is beautiful, lively and lovely. The last ending is the reproduction of the introduction melody, echoing before and after. After such analysis, children will feel that this song is more lively and lively, and it will also arouse their interest in learning.

In short, while cultivating students, we must continue to stimulate their interest and enthusiasm in learning Guzheng. Let them grow up happily with the music.
