Why I’m giving my students gift cards?!

Each week I give my top practicing student (using the Piano Maestro App)a $5 giftcard to Barnes and Noble, Amazon or Target. Everyone young and old loves a giftcard and my students are willing to work hard to be in the running!  Here are some winners and stats from past weeks~

And just look at these statistics!  Five times more practicing even without a bribe is a serious reason to check out Piano Maestro App for teachers.  Also, it’s FREE for registered teachers AND their students.  THANKS JOYTUNES!

Humans are motivated by bribes, that’s why we all work! If you’re interested in multiplying your students’ practice time at home, try my $5 gift card trick out for a month and see if it works for you too!  If you need a $5 Amazon gift card check out Amazon  flex gift cards…you can add as little as fifty cents to a card whenever you need to!
