Hello, I'm a self-taught piano player.
If you go back and read my old topics, you'll understand more about what I'm about to convey.

I didn't go to private lessons in last 2 years at all. So this is the main reason I never got the chance to play the acoustic piano much. I have a problem with its touching. I can't do any voicing very well because I practiced on the digital piano (Kawai KDP-70).

Now I'm in undergraduate, so I don't have much money for renting the practice room. This is something that I feel disgusted with. that I had to try all by myself I'm having some financial problems. I can't rent a piano practice room for around 10 USD per hour. Until this was the thing that almost stopped me from playing the piano. Because I feel like I'm not improving at all.

But when I had the opportunity to play acoustic piano I would feel nervous and unable to control myself.

Actually, I just want other people to understand to how I feel :(

Sorry to hear that. Do the churches in your area have acoustic pianos you can practice on? They might let you if you ask nicely.
