    Thank you for making this video. I'm autistic and I have ADHD. I've been playing music since I was six and I studied at two different conservatories and dropped out of both of them. Formalized music education is not neurodivergent friendly at all. I wish even one of my teachers had half your understanding of neurodivergence and the openness to look at music from a different perspective.

      Such a unique idea. I've never added it to my list, but I think if I did something it would have to include improv duets for beginners that they could play with family members - even with not much music experience - playfulness at the piano would likely be something I'd include now that I would have thought of before!

    Yes! Habit stacking is so very helpful over here and I love competitions with myself too. I did that when making flower baskets as a teen and college student and made so many that I got a paid afternoon off as they didn't want to punish me for being so efficient. lol.

    Hey there, I'm an MTB piano examiner. Great to hear you like the feedback! We do try to weigh more towards the positive aspects of a performance with areas to be improved framed in a constructive way. From "the other side" it's great hearing such a variety of playing in both Performance and Practical formats of the exams. I've learnt a great deal as a teacher from being an examiner too. Love the channel, keep up the good work!

    • @ColourfulKeys

      Would you say MTB are as strict as ABRSM when marking?

    • @justapiano88
      @justapiano88 7 дней назад

      It's hard to say as the marking criteria are quite different in some ways. And it always depends on the examiner's point of view. I think where MTB try to set themselves apart from ABRSM is that the comments and feedback are much more constructive and in easy to understand language as Nicola pointed out. Also, each exam is marked by an instrumental specialist (i.e. piano exams marked by piano specialist, violin exam by a violin specialist etc). I have had bad experiences with my students in both ABRSM and Trinity and continue to hear negatives about both of "the big two". MTB offers a great alternative for the same outcome of qualification. So if you've not tried it, it's worth giving it a go especially at beginner level
