We will cover basic chords, basic scales, and learn to play with both hands on the keyboard. The student will learn to improvise on a simple scale with their right hand, while playing chords in the left hand. We will cover some basic music theory , in regards to keys, scales and chords. The student will get a feel for the keyboard and experience playing piano , to have a better idea of what it is like. My teaching style is creative and adaptable , based on the individual learner. I teach to accommodate the individual learning style of the student. Each week , I will post some hand written papers and short videos into the outschool classroom, so that the student will be able to use those to practice with and to refresh what we did in the last class.
