As a musician it was really wonderful to see the teaching knowledge acquired over years applied to make an easy to follow guide based on the experiences and knowledge gained over the years. Practical and easy to use, is simple to apply and to use to even show parents how they can teach their kids from home too at a young age from home when they have access to the right resources, such as this one. I definitely recommend. Keep up the good work!

I bought this about a year ago and have used some of the ideas with my piano students. Now I am going to enjoy using it with my preschool age daughter becuase she is really interested in learning piano. This is a great book to give you ideas to use with a beginner piano student. Makes it fun and yet teaches things they will need to know.

As a piano teacher I am always looking for new ways to teach children, especially younger children (I’ve always taught from age 7; or when children are beginning to read).
This book seems to be a fun and intuitive way to help younger children get started; its less formal but has lots of great practical ideas. Competitively priced.

Thank you Alison! As a fellow teacher, I really appreciate your feedback, and hope you’ll have fun teaching the little ones!

I love your book and website so much! All the printables and creative ideas have been so fun for my 5 year old. I feel this has been such a great investment where I can teach him piano lessons at home at our own pace and keep it fun and interesting. I wanted to see if he had any interest or enough attention span before hiring a piano teacher and your book was just perfect. He really loves it and is enjoying our piano lessons each day. He’s learning so fast I also bought the bundle pack to continue teaching him notes and theory. It’s been a really great experience with my son using your books for his first piano lessons.

I purchased your first piano lessons and love it. I also purchased Chester’s easiest piano course. Didn’t you have other suggestions for piano courses? I use Faber Series, but I like your book better and love Chester’s.
