Your first lessonOur first lesson is a combination of getting acquainted and exploring what music you’d enjoy learning. I like to end a lesson with a game for children and teens (unless they prefer other games):
Music Math
Lesson 2-3Our second lesson involves hand position and learning the basic 5-finger pattern. This is easy, in a few days you’ll play a little faster.Then add your other hand, play together. You can actually compose a song at your second lesson!
Lesson 4-10By lesson three or four (depending on age), you can learn Beethoven’s ‘Ode to Joy’! Also, if you’re a teen or older beginner and want to to learn popular music, we can start learning chords using a special
method I started years ago. (Easy).
Lesson 11+Younger children are ready for many Disney songs at this time (Moana, etc) while middle school and high schoolers might prefer top 40 hits found in sheet music. I encourage teens to still learn a few classical songs even if pop-rock is their favorite style.
Adults, would you enjoy learning favorite Beatles songs, Elton, perhaps Blues? Or, I can teach you how to compose your own songs.
Advanced training plan
Your first lessonThe advanced beginner will learn theory, phrasing and notation more quickly; hence, more songs will be learned (& his/her favorite ones!).
