Lesson Structure
What You Can Expect Per Lesson
1. Scales
There are many scales in music but for pop piano wise, the most commonly used scales are the major and minor. Learning the scales has a few benefits, it helps you to
-
Play By Ear
-
Improvise Coordination
-
Improve Your Technique
2. Songs
I will give you a new song every single lesson. There are a few types of scores/chord charts that I use to help you become a more versatile pianist.
-
Leadsheet - Melody with Chords. Scores like this are basically guides that helps you to improvise with minimum sight reading.
-
Pre- Arranged scores. Scores like this are meant to be played as written and it’s excellent for sight reading and learning a new genre.
-
Chord charts - Chord charts are great for using it as a guide when you want to play and sing or play by ear.
3. Theory
Theory wise, I will normally teach the traditional music theory and contemporary music theory. Rest assure that I will only teach theories that helps in your development as a pianist. Meaning that I would not spend time on certain theories that exam going students learn that has nothing to do with Piano.
4. Musicianship
There are a few components in this section that I work on to help you improve as a musician.
-
Sight-Reading - This is basically to help you read and play songs more confidently on the spot
-
Transposition - This will allow you to understand chords better and change keys while singing on the spot
-
Chords Fill-In - This will help you figure out chord progression and understand chords better
-
Fingering Planning - This will help you develop good finger movement to help you play smoothly going forward
-
Aural Training - This will help you improve your hearing and have the ability to play by ear.
Please note that these point are just for your reference on how I would normally conduct my lessons. I will customise the lessons according to your preferences and work towards your objectives as a musician. I look forward to helping you become the pianist that you aim to be! =)
