For beginner piano students, I have two methods books that I use. For young children, I use the Bastion Piano Basics series. It is colorful, fun, and exciting for young learners.

For beginning adult students, I use the Faber Adult Piano Adventures series, as this is more tailored to older students. It is less focused on colorful visuals, and uses language geared toward older learners. Read More

For my beginner students, who are younger, I start off with the Faber series in the Primer levels.

I teach more information outside of the book which is not taught until later to get ahead. Read More
