Hello! Welcome to my course of Private Piano Lessons. In this course I will offer a private lesson meeting your child at their current Piano Playing level. This course is a thorough overview of how to play the piano and read music. Students will become proficient performers as well as skilled musicians understanding music theory terminology. I will cover all elements of music theory including ear training, rhythm, and how to love the music! I use the Bastien Piano Basics method books through these virtual lessons. These method books have online quizzes, games, activities, and fun facts that correspond with each specific lesson. This allows the students to learn music through multiple outlets all in one setting. I integrate multiple ways of study to ensure the students do not get bored of the routine instruction then practice, instruction then practice. The Bastien method is my favorite method to use for teacher. However, I am familiar with the Fabre, Carol Matz, Thompson, and Afred methods books as well. I am more than willing to utilize the piano books that your student has already purchased. My courses will cover every detail beginning with how to sit at the piano, up to the advanced levels of performing in Piano Competitions. I have designed this specific course to align with school schedules typically running from September-June. You will need to enroll in 2 semesters to last the calendar school year equaling 38 total lessons.
Learning Goals
Students will learn the basics of Piano playing that include these key elements:
-Proper hand and sitting positions
-Finger numbers
-Reading the staff in both the Treble and Bass Cleff
-Playing, Counting, and Reading simple to complex rhythms
-Sight reading
-Major and Minor Keys
-Learning Jazz, Contemporary, and Classical piano pieces
-Learning the students specific favorites from movies, musicals, or games
Other Details
Learning Needs
This class is designed to be specialized for your learner you enrolled. I will tailor my typical lesson outline to specifically match your learner's needs.
Parental Guidance
Parental Guidance is suggested for young students who may need help placing their hands on the correct key.
Pre-Requisites
There are no pre-reqs required for my lessons. However, if your learner has taken piano lessons before then please email me letting me know which books/materials the previous teacher used so I can prepare accordingly.
Supply List
**I am happy to use the books you already have ready at home as long as I also have a copy of those books. My preferred lesson material is the Bastien Piano Basics method.** We will be using the course material created by Jane Bastien using her Bastien Piano Basics method books.
