If you have a learner who has not completed the prior classes, but has some experience in piano, please reach out to me to see if this class may be a good fit. If your learner is new to playing the Piano, copy the link below to sign up for the first class in my Beginner Piano Lesson series.

TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL CLASS

1. It is important to see learners' faces and hands during the class. Have learners sitting at their piano/keyboard and have your device able to capture them from the head to their lower ribcage. I will be able to offer learners feedback on the use of their hands/fingers this way during the lesson. (Example Picture is provided below) I would highly discourage using a Phone or other small devices for this class. The larger the screen, the better experience your learner will have.

2. Please have all Materials ready prior to starting class. Learners will need a Piano or Keyboard, Pencil, Ear Phones/Buds, and Method Books for each class.

3. In some lessons, learners will need to write in their Method Books. Please make sure your space is equipped for this to be possible with a clipboard, desk, or something hard to write on.

4. Younger learners WILL benefit from having an adult sitting next to them (off camera) for help, especially in the first class or two. Learning the piano virtually is possible, but may need adult supervision to get started. You know your child best!

5. Ensure learners are in a quiet space or have earphones/buds to allow them to hear the teacher and stay engaged.
