My Project

We need tuners and metronomes for individual and small-group practice. Tuners help string players develop muscle memory for where their fingers go. Metronomes help create a steady pulse so students can play rhythms correctly.

We need dedicated tuners and metronomes so students do not have to rely on smartphone apps.

The free apps that students are most likely to use are not high quality and do not have all the functions a dedicated device has. Additionally, my students record playing tests on their phones to submit, and if they are using the metronome on their phone at the same time it can ruin the sound quality.

Thank you for providing tuners and metronomes so my students can practice better.

    This project will reach 50 students.
