Having started piano relatively late, I was always taking account of what my experience and thoughts were as I progressed forward. I am familiar with and aware of the issues that bog down a lot of beginner students (of all ages) and try to solve these issues in unconventional and exciting ways.

After that I really like to use the John Thompson's piano book grade 1, and I have had many good results with my students in the past. Read More
