Class Experience

NOTE: This class requires AT LEAST 3 LEARNERS in attendance. NO EXCEPTIONS. If only 1 learner, the Instructor will either 1) offer to transfer the student to a class with other learners, or 2) a refund will be issued.

Students will learn several types of 3-note chords and how to build and play them. 

It is highly advised that students already have an understanding of the music alphabet (A through G) and can identify the name of each white key. 

Note: Age group is for 12-15 years old, however if your child is younger and either he/she has taken lessons before it have taken any of my piano classes, please inbox me.

Day 1 - Understanding Sharps and Flats,  How to Build a Major Chord
Day 2 - How to Build a Minor Chord, Major vs. Minor (identify differences and sound)
Day 3 - How to Build a Diminished Chord, Minor vs. Diminished, How to Build an Augmented Chord, Major vs. Augmented
Day 4 - Learn the Basic Chord Progressions for a familiar pop song (in the key of C)

Learning Goals

Students will have learned the following different types of 3 Note Chords in keyboarding:
Major
Minor
Diminished
Augmented
Suspension Chords
With practice students should be able to identify, theorize and play chords and apply this knowledge to songwriting or learning a chord progression to a popular song.

Hi there! I offer young minds effective ways to nurture their passion for music by guiding them with patience, creativity, and compassion. 

Originally from MD, I received my Bachelor's degree in Music at George Washington University and my Master's Degree in Vocal Performance at Catholic University of America in Washington DC. Since 2002 I've performed and recorded professionally and have enjoyed teaching voice and piano to children and adults for over 20 years.
It's truly rewarding for me to motivate children to think outside the box as they learn concepts of music, theory, and ear training. I teach piano for ages 3 and up, from beginning to intermediate level (up to Level 3 proficiency) as well as offer basic keyboarding (playing with chords and playing by ear). I offer private voice for all levels and genres for ages 10 and up, and group vocal ensembles or musical theatre studies for students as young as 8 years old.
