HomeSchoolPiano is different than other piano methods because we focus on developing the entire musician. Far too often students learn only to read music and their musical ear suffers. HomeSchoolPiano develops the ear, reading and compositional skills of each student equally which makes them a better pianist and a full musician.

Students access all of the HomeSchoolPiano content directly through our website. The program is divided into three “books” which are PDF files that you can download and print. Each book is further divided into 6 units. Each unit contains a lesson on:

1. Technique – where you’ll learn how to play faster and more accurately
2. Rhythm – think you have bad rhythm? You won’t after these lessons!
3. Ear Training – train your ear to hear melodies, rhythms and chords with ease
4. Reading – learn how to read music faster and learn how to create your own accompaniments using techniques I’ve learned from years of training
5. Song – learn to play really fun songs that are catchy and turn heads
6. Improvisation – unlock your creative side and create your own music
7. Bonus – each unit includes an extra bonus section for students to learn advanced techniques. This is particularly useful for advanced students

Each unit is about 60- to 80-minutes of video lessons. It takes most students 2-3 years to complete the entire system.

Private piano lessons can get expensive. On average, it costs $99 per-month for private piano lessons. HomeSchoolPiano gives you 2-3 years of video-based lessons which would cost upwards of $2,376 with a private teacher. Multiply this by more than one student per household and it can be costly.

We are strong supporters of private piano teachers. However, we know that the time and cost involved with private instruction does not always fit into a family’s budget. HomeSchoolPiano gives you the freedom to learn at any time of day or night from the comfort of your home. Best of all, you get to go at your own pace.

Often students feel embarrassed or nervous playing in front of their teacher. Our lessons remove this barrier to learning by making the lessons fun and engaging without being stressful. Need to see something played for the 100th time? No problem, just rewind and play it again!

Our virtual keyboard makes seeing what is being played a snap. You will see every single note played light up along with the note name right above the piano keyboard.
