Description

This course is intended for purchase by piano teachers or parents to help prepare piano students for exams, competitions, auditions and concerts.

This course is filled with fun and simple activities to help students overcome stage fright, improve piano technique and develop their own performance style.

After completing Piano Made Easy Online Course 1 & 2, students can now prepare for their piano debut with a private piano teacher.

Primary and secondary students share one thing in common - they need motivation, inspiration and role models they can look up to.

Students want music lessons to be easy, fun and entertaining. Students want a step-by-step guide to piano that is easy to follow and offers results.

This course is designed for teachers to help students prepare for public performances and concerts. While working through the course, students should aim to learn one new piano piece a week with their teacher. A little progress every day is okay.

Track the progress by video recording one new piano piece a week. At the end of each week, take time to reflect and celebrate achievements and plan out how to overcome the struggles.

Upon completion of each activity, students will have the tools to help prepare for any public piano performance.
