幼児向けピアノ - Wunderkeys 3 - 継続中

This ongoing class is part 3 of an introduction to piano lessons for very young beginners, using the Wunderkeys Preschool book 3. This book is NOT cumulative, but instead repeats the same structure while introducing a different "wunderbie," creative theme, and song in each chapter. This fits very well with the structure of on-going lessons, and students may join at any time with ease.

The Wunderkeys Preschool curriculum focuses on piano-related skills for preschoolers, such as pattern recognition, counting, writing numbers, and identifying each finger. Each chapter unit includes each of these activities and one teacher duet where the students and teacher take turns playing their part. (Students will receive a separate audio recording after class for easy practice!)

I will help propel your learner to the next level with serious music theory disguised as fun games, exciting song-writing activities, and easy tunes. I balance a fun, student-centered approach with more traditional models, often replacing arduous theory worksheets with games. In my music classes, my goal is to build a creative, stress-free environment so that my students enjoy the music-making process.

See below for PreRequisites.

SET UP
Please enable Original Sound setting (or Original Sound for Musicians) in your Zoom settings for all music classes!

For piano lessons, ideally the video camera should be positioned to face the keyboard/piano keys to show the student's hands *and* face. 

At the first lesson, I may ask to see your seating arrangement. Often, young children need a booster seat and a footstool in order to play comfortably at an adult-sized instrument.
