小学生初心者向けグループピアノレッスン

In this 8 week class, we will learn sitting and hand positions at the piano, as well as basic musical concepts.  The piano book I am using is appropriate for ages 7-10 and the student will move at a slow pace at first as they learn the notes and fingering.  The theory book will reinforce the thinking skills through reading and writing activities.  Music theory tells the "why".  I am a very patient and interactive teacher who will make even a shy child feel comfortable.
The student will learn notes, fingering, music terms (such as forte-loud and piano-soft).   
They will also learn note values.  That is, to say, how many beats does a whole, half, quarter, and eighth note have.
In addition, music develops recall that will stimulate the brain in many other areas of life.
