Learn Piano At Home
Maybe your child has been wanting to learn piano, but adding one more thing to your calendar seems overwhelming.
Learn Piano At Home was created to take your child from being a complete beginner (or who has some lessons already under their belt) to knowing how to play piano by ear, how to read music, correct piano technique, and all about music theory.
The piano courses are for kids ages 6-12 (or for adult students wanting a self paced course).
