But it is worth every minute of being able to play anything you desire. Read More

For children I use the "Teaching Little Fingers to Play" series by John Thompson. I do this because because the top of each page has a diagram of how the notes on the staves as well as the diacritical marks are played on the piano.

When will I start to see results?
May be right away, may be never.
Depends on:
-how much are PARENTS involved in your child musical activities: the younger your child is the more help he or she needs. TRY IT YOURSELF.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My mother was my first teacher of simple song and dances.
Simple lullaby to a baby is a real inspiration that does magic to your child. It is much more than any "motivational talk
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I did not pass the exams for violin for physical reasons (short fingers), and musicality. I do not have an excellent musical ear.
I was offered piano instead. My musical imperfections are greatly improved with years of of training in different musical disciplines.
However my hand problem was the one, that not allow me to continue as a concert pianist.

Practice every day. It could take any time from 15 min. to 15 h.
Fingers are not readily made for moving around a key board. Need to build up specific muscles and постуре support for your fingers.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Just take your child to life concerts as much as possible, sing and dance with your child at home to any music available, or just to stamping, clapping, or using anything handy to beat the rhythms.
Have fun withy your child, making any live music...
