Description

Piano fun has just begun!

Your little one is keen on playing the piano and you want an online course that is well-paced and absolute fun. Look no further, with Beats & Pieces you have peace of mind. We provide your child with piano lesson packages that can be taken at their pace and at your convenience. 

This course is intended for very young children (under 6) with parental guidance who have an interest in playing the piano. It is intended for purchase by adults.

Your child will learn:


  • good posture and hand placement

  • three easy yet essential finger drills

  • how to observe finger numbers

  • identifying Right Hand and Left Hand

  • how to follow two types of graphic scores

  • how to play to the beat

  • how to play popular nursery rhymes

  • how to play the songs as duets

How do you help your child develop patience and persistence, task completion, delayed gratification, and self-confidence, and self-expression...? You could start by bonding with your child while engaging in an enjoyable activity such as learning piano. This course has a high success rate. In order to achieve steady progress, I encourage parents to help their child find their way and to encourage proper technique.

Fingering Dexterity:

The courses are created to help your play-schooler with fingering dexterity. Simple melodies and their variations keep the lessons interesting and well-paced. Repetition is utilized to develop good practice habits.

Keyboard Exploration:

Your child is encouraged to explore the full length of the keyboard, no matter what size it is. Identifying and visualizing key patterns helps your child play the melodies with little to moderate effort. Creativity is always encouraged.

Piano Accompaniment:

All lessons are paired with fun musical accompaniments, purposefully composed for your child's enjoyment while instilling the elements of Tonality and most importantly, Rhythm. Your child will surely have a blast!

At Beats & Pieces, I help you do just that.  Because beyond playing the piano you want your child to develop the emotional health and self-confidence to achieve independence and discover their full potential. At Beats & Pieces, we know what that’s about and we guide you through this journey, every step of the way.

Who this course is for:

  • This course is intended for very young children (under 6) who have an interest in playing the piano.
  • Home-schooling children can benefit from these lessons with the assistance of their parent teacher.
  • If you are a parent who wishes to explore piano lessons with your little one but you are not ready to formally sign up for lessons, this course is perfect for you.
