About the author

Nancy Tanaka

Nancy Tanaka is a jazz pianist with 12 years of classical training under her belt. Growing up, she saw that the traditional lesson format was broken and reaching less and less kids (she saw all of her friends drop out of music one by one until she was the only one left). Today, she is a part of the team at Better Practice where she works on solving motivation issues in music practice and helps teachers facing the same retention/motivation issues daily.
