Clase privada de piano individual (30 min)

This course is great for those who wish to take piano lessons seriously within a positive and fun environment! This is also great for students who want to take their playing to the next level. I teach all levels, from absolute beginner to advanced. 


Class Structure and Technology:

This is a one-on-one course, meaning students will receive individualized attention and instruction. Students will attend class at their own keyboard or piano and actively participate. Mics will be unmuted for all of class.

I have two cameras, one with a side view and another with a close-up view of my hands. Class materials will be shared to the screen, or students may provide their own materials.

After the lesson, students will be provided with a practice assignment and any necessary materials to make sure they are able to continue progressing on their own.



Curriculum and Topics Covered:

Curriculum will be largely customized based on student's individual goals and needs. Regardless of the individual goals my students present, I maintain a strong emphasis on the following topics:

1. Technique - Correct technique is essential for healthy playing and for students to advance to harder pieces.

2. Reading - Students will learn how to read music (treble clef, bass clef, and rhythms).

3. Musicality - Students will learn how to play musically and interpret the special characteristics of each piece.

4. Practice methods - Students will learn how to properly practice between lessons. This will allow them to gain independence and progress consistently.



Teaching Philosophy:

As a teacher, my largest and most immediate goal is to create a healthy growing space. As a music teacher, I strive to do this on both a personal and pianistic level. I begin by making sure I understand each student's goals in order to create an individualized curriculum. 

During lessons, I strive to maintain a positive and energetic environment. Lessons can be intimidating for many, but it is important to not view corrections and critique as an indicator of failure--rather, they provide potential to become a better player and musician. 

After lessons, I provide notes to make sure students know how to practice throughout the week and have clear objectives towards which they should work. 



Cancellation Policy:

24 hours' notice must be given in order to reschedule a lesson.



Parental Involvement:

Adult help may be necessary for some students, depending on their prior piano experience and learning style. However, it is recommended that the student complete the course without adult help when possible, except in the case of technical difficulties.
