Class Experience

**Please Note - This class is NOT for beginning piano students.  To make the most of this class, students should be at a basic level of piano playing, and have the following prerequisites:
- know the notes on the piano
- know what sharps and flats are
- can read treble clef notes from C-C
- can play with both hands.  
**If you are unsure if your student has these prerequisites, please message me before registering.**

Let’s take piano playing to the next level! This class will teach the basics of piano chording, and playing a song with a chord chart. Instead of playing a song only by reading the notes, students will learn how to play the basic chords for a song.  They will also learn how to harmonize a melody with their own chords.

For a quick introduction to this method, you may want to check out my other one time course first, “Chording Fast Track- Twinkle Twinkle”.  This course is an extension of that one time class, but is not a requirement to join this course.
