Virtual Piano lessons allow you the convenience of learning the piano from your own home and with the busy schedules many families have, this Flex Class will allow you more flexibility in learning the material. This class is perfect for learners who have completed Beginner Piano Lessons: Level 1 and want to continue in learning to play the piano. If you have a learner who has not completed the prior class, but has some beginner experience in piano, please reach out to me to see if this class may be a good fit. If you are interested in this class, but have not completed Level 1, use the link below to enroll!

What To Expect

- Video Lessons Each Monday
- View the Video and Complete Assignments throughout the Week
- Written or Video Feedback from the Teacher on Weekly Theory Assignments
- Video Feedback from the Teacher on Weekly Song Recordings

There are NO live weekly meetings for this class, however the teacher works to ensure every learner has meaningful one on one feedback throughout the entire class. A piano or keyboard is required for this class as well as two books (the same books as Level 1) which are all linked in the Materials section on this page. Material will be posted weekly and you can view it during the week when it works best for your schedule. 

Video lessons will be released each Monday of the instructor reviewing the assignments for the week and teaching piano concepts in a way that is easy to understand, much like a live piano lesson. Learners will view these videos and practice the concepts taught at their piano. They will then spend time practicing songs taught in the video lesson throughout the week. Learners will be assigned one song each week to record themselves playing and then upload to the Classroom Page. 

The teacher will model how to give appropriate and positive feedback to one another and learners will be encouraged to provide positive feedback to each video posted in the classroom. The instructor will also provide Video Feedback for each learner praising them for their progress and positively modeling any corrections that need to be made.

Theory Worksheets will be assigned to support learning and to allow the instructor to check for understanding. Learners should submit a picture of their Theory assignments each week by Friday to allow the instructor time to give feedback. 

In this class, learners will have the opportunity to learn 10 songs! Learners who have some beginner experience on the Piano, but have not completed Level 1 should contact me prior to enrolling in this class.
