After teaching more than 1,000 jazz piano students, you start to see patterns—what actually helps students improve, what slows them down, and what many players misunderstand about learning jazz.
In this episode, I share 10 of the biggest lessons I’ve learned from years of teaching, including why consistency beats practice volume, why students move on from exercises too quickly, why fundamentals matter more than advanced concepts, and why improvisation is far more systematic than most people think.
I also dig into ear training vs. listening, learning voicings through memorization, developing an authentic swing feel, practicing more efficiently, and why the never-ending nature of learning jazz is something to enjoy rather than fight.
Whether you’re just getting started or have been playing jazz for years, these lessons can help you rethink how you approach your practice and progress.
