      I’m using Piano Maestro iPad app…it’s quite good in my opinion, helps them in their rhythm and sight reading skills…but it’s free only up till Chapter 6 (covering notes from bass clef G to treble clef E only).

          Today, I finished assembling the video for the pieces from Piano Time Pieces Book 1. The book is cheap, easily available, and contains attractive pieces for beginners and pre-grade 1. A lot of my students enjoy the pieces from this book, so I make it a priority to record this and a few more Piano Time Pieces because decent professional recordings of them do not exist.


          To go to individual piece you will need to go the Youtube page and click on the time stamp.

                My pleasure. Just trying to fix the holes in learning resources that I use in my lessons.

                  My 5-yr-old doesn’t want to learn piano anymore. She complains that the tutor scolds her every lesson. In the beginning when she was scolded, she would be very upset. Now she can’t be bothered to be upset. She simply refuses to go for the lessons. If anyone has a patient and responsible piano tutor in the north, who preferably travels to her pupil’s place, please pm me.

                    Do you sit in the lessons? Why does the teacher scold your daughter?

                      Do you sit in the lessons? Why does the teacher scold your daughter?

                      No. The teacher doesn't allow parents to sit in. She scolds her for different reasons, according to my kid, eg. didn't do homework, not familiar with notes, and sometimes my kid doesn't know why she got scolded. There was also once when my kid said that the teacher scolded her for playing a song wrongly but she didn't know why it was wrong.

                      From a child who was enthusiastic about learning piano, she now finds it repulsive and associates piano with scolding.

                        No teachers teaching a 5 year old should ever disallow parents to sit in for the lessons. They can't really expect a 5 year old to be able to follow and remember all instructions to practice correctly for the week without the guidance of the parents.

                        Sent you a PM regarding piano teacher.
