Private Piano Class
Your beginning through early-intermediate student experiences the best of both private lessons and group piano worlds!
Meeting with 4-6 friends, at their own digital piano stations and using headphones, your PPC student will really learn to practice! To find true self-motivation, students need to reach mastery on the material they are playing and this is what PPC helps a student achieve in each class. Feeling empowered because they go home knowing what to do, practice feels much easier and fosters more independence. Motivation occurs when students learn from their own effort. Practicing effectively makes learning easy and playing joyful!
In this supportive environment, students typically move faster than when enrolled in Private Lessons, because they have more supervised time with the teachers present and because they are more motivated by the group setting.
​
Content includes extensive micro and macro goal setting, dynamic group activities, note-learning contests, technique incentives, music theory, ear training, sight reading and performance pieces. Social benefits are experienced in a group setting, and students feel supported and mentored right from where they are at. Desiring to do their best, this brings out their best!
