Level 2B Part 2: Continuing Piano Adventures with Ms. Diana

Please note: 

This is for those continuing from "Level 2B Part 1 Continuing Piano Adventure"  of our fun + interactive later beginning piano courses with Ms. Diana! 

My Goal: 

Learner: 

Hi Friends! I can't wait to journey alongside you in piano. My goal for you is to have fun, learn, and make some awesome new friends in piano. 

S O N G S
We will play some songs you know and love (Vivaldi's "Spring" and "This Old Man"). Plus, songs you might not know yet but will soon  L O V E! 

G A M E S 

My goal is to continue to develop each student’s individual musical ability and to challenge them to become the best possible version of themselves! 

P R A C T I C E  V I D E O S

If you need a little more help with your songs, don't worry! Each week you'll be sent special practice videos to guide you through the new songs and a performance level so you can see and play along with as well! 

L E A R N E R  C H A T

Have a question? Feel free to send Ms. Diana a video or message to help you! You don't have to wait until the next week for help - Ms. Diana is here for you throughout the week as well. 

ADULT: 

The beauty of the group lesson is that it becomes an automatic accountability community! Students WANT to come back to class prepared each week and enjoy seeing other students play and learn along the way. 

This later beginner course will give students extra guided practice time as well as a focus on the theory that coincides with each unit covered. 

Due to the nature of this course involving moving into more challenging material, practice is REQUIRED. Please be prepared to assist your learner with incorporating at least 4 days a week with the ability to play through their pieces for 20-30 minutes. This time will not only build confidence but also help them as they now continue to add more advanced techniques and theories to their knowledge

DETAILS::
The course is structured around the concept that children learn music through immersion! 

Your child will be given the opportunity to hear me play to model how their pieces go.

We will then discuss the songs as they use "visual analysis" in understanding what is happening in the music. 
This allows the student to build their listening skills (ear training), sight-reading (reading music), and creativity (applying musical knowledge to their piece!) 

Lastly, we'll spend some time in our Theory Books to continue building on our foundation.

BONUSES

THEORY GAMES
Students will be sent to students individually which will allow them to play and receive immediate results. 

PRACTICE VIDEOS
Following each class, there will be practice videos and performance videos available for the learner to review the songs completed in class. This is to support the learner in their journey for extra guidance throughout the week as well as train their ear for correct notes and tempo. 

IMPORTANT!

Practice videos will be available in the classroom each week for students' review of the material as well as full class recordings for missed classes. 

For our final meeting, Class 8, we have a PERFORMANCE for students to showcase their songs that they have enjoyed most! 


PRACTICE IS REQUIRED:

Due to the nature of this course involving moving into more advanced material; developing a regular practice habit weekly is important and required for your learner’s success in the course. 

Please assist your learner with incorporating at least 2 days a week with the ability to play at least 4 times through each song (about a 20-30 minute practice session). This time will not only build confidence but also help them as they incorporate new concepts learned each week!

NEW TO THE COURSE?
If you are switching from another teacher or series, please message me and we will discuss what the best place to start would be for your learner. 

I look forward to journeying alongside your learner through the wonderful world of music!
