I'm plateauing on music, specifically in starting sightreading.
So I started to learn music theory on my own, like 11 months ago. Now I know a good amount about music to make some stuff in FL studio, and never used a physical instrument or using sheet music. Now I want to learn to use sheet music, and sight read them on piano. But it's so confusing on where to start, because some stuff feels like "This is too complex for me for now" and going backward feels like "It's too easy for me, and continuing here won't help me progress". I don't know where to start.
And this plateau is harder because I don't have a music teacher, not because of ego or anything, but because I literally can't get one. If I can get a music teacher that fits my budget, schedule, and everything, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
I'm plateauing quite hard on music right now, specifically in starting to sight read. I'm just asking how to start, so I can have a good "flow" of the progression, and getting out of plateau.
So if anyone here is also a self taught, or an experienced piano player, or knows more stuff about this, an advice or help would be appreciated.
