Piano Fun and Games for Beginners Course 2 will develop piano skills even more! Perfect for students who completed the first course or who have some experience with piano. Using fun, interactive activities, students will learn -Keyboard geography/note names -Finger dexterity -Quarter, half, whole notes and rests -Listening skills -Confidence and creativity Any piano or electric keyboard can be used for class. I will send songs and printables after each class for students to practice at home, but no homework or prior experience is required. I use a combination of visual aids, short easy to follow demonstrations, songs, and interactive games to keep learners engaged and excited. My teaching studio includes four cameras operating simultaneously for multiple viewing options, and lots of cool software for sharing visuals and high quality audio. Students will be on mute for portions of the class. To share your piano sounds with the class please follow this guidance from Outschool for music lessons on Zoom
