Class Experience

Beginner Level
In weekly ongoing private lessons, students will learn the fundamentals of playing piano. We'll cover all of the necessary basics and work toward individualized goals designed to fit each learner's needs and interests. Each class will begin with warm-ups to prepare and reinforce a variety of relevant skills and techniques. For the remainder of the lesson, the learner will practice skills in a fun and engaging way while learning to perform a variety of music repertoire. We may also occasionally explore listening exercises, discuss topics such as performance skills, or engage in other relevant activities to enhance students' overall knowledge and experience as piano players.

Topics covered in lessons may include, but are not limited to:
- Healthy posture and technique
- Aural skills
- Notation
- Music theory
- Musicianship and artistry
- Improvisation and composition
- Exposure to a variety of music and genres through listening and performance
- Practice and performance skills
- Teacher-directed and learner-directed assessment and reflection

Learning Goals

Learning objectives will be learner directed and will vary depending on the student's individual needs and goals.
