Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 3
Beginner Level
In this fun and interactive 4-week beginner piano class, learners will explore the basics of piano through creative games and musical activities! 

Games and songs will teach concepts including
-Piano finger numbers 
-Patterns on the keyboard
-Music symbols
-Listening skills

Simple songs with clear visual aids can be practiced between classes, bold musicians have the option to play for the group! (Not required)

My lessons are interactive, imaginative, and student-centered. I use call-and-response, movement activities, and musical improvisation to make sure each child feels confident and excited about their progress. 

I'll guide students through fun piano challenges while encouraging self-expression and a sense of musical joy!
