Teaching Method

Prof. Milica Miljanić

My teaching method is primarily based on the idea of the importance of the mental concept of a musical piece and its forming in the inner ear. I think that can be achieved by encouraging the children in singing and rhythmic-motor movements. That will influence improvement of concentration and better motor skills. This approach will establish an accurate picture of the musical phrases and rhythm of a musical piece. Once this is adopted, I can gradually introduce the basic concepts of musical form and harmony to a child. I pay special attention to correct hands and body position, eliminate excess movement and spasm while playing.

However, given that each student special, classes are always adapted to his individual capabilities, affinities, temperament and character. I think that in the process of learning to play the instrument of special importance is that student feels free to express his ideas and creativity. Because of that I like to establish direct contact with the student and relaxed atmosphere during the class.
