Class experience
I am excited to offer this FLEX class version of my Multi-Day Piano Class for ages 11-16. I pride myself in being a very encouraging and patient teacher. I have worked to created videos that are well documents and easy to understand. This class is for students that have no background (or very little) in piano skills. Students are encouraged to review the videos as many times as they need in order to be successful at the skills taught. They are also encouraged to stop the video after a...
Students will learn the basics of music and playing the piano. They will learn to use the notes on the piano in Middle C and C 5 finger positions. They will learn the notes on the music staff, both treble clef and bass clef. They will learn the melodies (using both hands) in the first half of the Faber "Accelerated Piano Adventures For The Older Beginner" Lesson Book. Students will have fun learning to play songs and compose simple rhythms and melodies.
I am a retired public school music teacher. I graduated from Appalachian State University in Boone, NC with a Bachelors of Music Education. I have taught music to all grades in the public school system, but spent most of time in elementary and middle school music. I have taught private piano lessons for many years in my home to all ages, ranging from 5 years old to adults. I have taught online for more than 5 years and enjoy this a great deal! I am also certified in Reading and ESL and enjoy working with all ages of students.
