How Do You Keep Ear Training Fun and Motivating Over Time?

[jeffreestar]

Hi everyone,

I’ve been using EarMaster to improve my ear training, especially with intervals and chord recognition. At first it felt exciting, but after a while I noticed it can become repetitive if I don’t change up my routine.

I’m curious:

• What strategies do you use to keep ear training fun and engaging?

• Do you mix EarMaster exercises with playing along to your favorite songs, or maybe set small weekly challenges?

• Have you found certain features in EarMaster (like jazz chord recognition, rhythm training, or sight-singing) that helped you stay motivated?

I think sharing different approaches could be really helpful for learners like me who want to make steady progress without burning out. Looking forward to hearing your tips!
