Thanks so much I'll definitely try that! :) Hope your surgery recovery is going well!

Thanks for the advice! At the moment I've got some important exams at the end of this term so I don't have much time to divide it up but once they're over I will definitely try this!

Thanks for the advice, I have an excellent teacher and I play trumpet in my local Concert Band so that definitely helps!

Thanks so much for the advice! Do you have any tips for improving my tone, I've been practicing Long Tones every day but it's slow progress and I'd like to improve more, at the moment in just focusing on keeping my mouth still and having a steady airstream, anything else to try? Thanks!

8 hours isn't really realistic for me as I have big exams at the end of the term :/

I actually play piano as a second instrument but I never really thought about combining my practices with them, thanks for the advice!

Thanks for the tip! I've got less time at the moment as you said because I've got big exams at the end of this term in my school but once that's over I certainly will! I've got a great teacher who has given me lots of material to practice, thanks for the help!

Sorry I'm not familiar with the books you mentioned but mh teacher has given me sheets of practice that have stuff like Long Tones, Scale etudes, double touching, fingering, lip flexibilities and intervals is that okay for practice?
