Beginner training plan
Your first lessonFor the first lesson, I assess my students piano skills and understand what they would like to achieve from taking piano classes so I can then create a personalized curriculum I then suggest books needed.
Lesson 2-3I show my students (or their guardians) their personal curriculum, reviewing what to expect from lessons. We go over basics and how to properly use a piano.
Lesson 4-10We start learning from the books I have recommended. Music theory is a very important skill that every student should learn when taking piano. Though I believe theory and technique are highly important, I believe artistry is just as important. Depending on where the student is at, I will start assigning exercises, and scales.
Lesson 11+We will be continuing with the student’s assigned exercises. Once I feel confident in the students skills, we can start learning and practicing actual piano songs along with our usual scales and homework.
Youth players
Working with kidsI am very patient and gentle with young children, which is important when it comes to the development of skills. I use a lot of color in my lessons, as it makes it easier to remember and learn. I expect parents to be at lessons as well.
