Homework
1-2 hours per week. The homework would be to practice the material presented and worked on during the lesson, and complete workbook pages, approximately 5 per week.Assessment
The parent will be sent a note after each week's class, detailing what was covered and should be practiced, as well as any suggestions for improvement.Class Experience
Traditional piano lessons, one-on-one, in an ongoing format. Instruction is individualized for the learner, beginning at the level of piano/keyboard experience. Basic foundation in piano/keyboard orientation, posture and finger/hand positions, exercises, scales, chords, and repertoire covering simple songs to be played with the Right Hand, and chords in the Left Hand. Student and parent song requests are encouraged, to give motivation to learn to play well. As the course progresses, a piano textbook will be used (see below), as well as workbook pages to do for homework.(see below).
Learning Goals
Students will learn about pianos and keyboards, their various functions and effects, correct posture and hand/finger positions, and basic fundamentals of music theory (notation, scales, chords), in addition to building a growing repertoire of songs to play. Requests for help in learning special favorite songs are especially welcomed, to give more reasons for the student to stay interested and motivated.
