This class is a private weekly piano lesson for your child. Students will learn the basic skills necessary to play the piano in a warm and supportive environment. We will focus on proper technique and music reading while having fun making music together! This class is available to students with no previous experience as well as students who have already been taking lessons or piano classes. Students should expect to spend 15-20 minutes playing the piano each day (outside of the lesson time). Please message me to set up a lesson time for your child. I will be happy to answer any questions that you have about the course.
Learning Goals
Students will learn to play with correct technique, learn to read music, and learn to play several simple songs.

Hello! I am so excited to teach piano classes on Outschool! I have been playing piano most of my life and I really love teaching beginners. It is so important to learn the fundamentals like correct hand position, posture, and note reading from the very beginning, and these are some of the things that I really focus on in class. I have taught many students of all ages how to play the piano. I have also taught high school and jr. high school choir and jr. high school band in the San Antonio, Texas area. I have been an accompanist for many groups, including The Children's Chorus of San Antonio, and I served as a member of the Fifth United States Army Band at Fort Sam Houston, Texas. I look forward to working with your child!
