Problem Statement: Studies on the factors of student motivation are currently addressing issues such as student attitudes, studying principles, studying environments, musical works and some personal issues. All of these elements undoubtedly have an effect on student motivation and success, so instructors should consider them while helping students to increase their motivation levels. Instructors should consider individual success in addition to the overall quality of their piano instruction if they wish to understand student motivation and other performance indicators, such as the self-consciousness of the students.
