See how easy the beginners' course is to follow.

First lesson, first piece. Beginners need a good start.

There are no official statistics, but it is no secret that many beginners give up on piano lessons and disappointments and false expectations arise. Lack of progress, boring learning methods or feeling overwhelmed are some of the main reasons for giving up lessons prematurely. I assure you that all this will not happen if you follow the basic rules of motivation.
When you start a new challenge of greater magnitude, such as a DIY project, you do not wait long to be told if you are up to it or if you need a qualified professional. The same happens when you play the piano. Feedback is the sound that comes out of your piano through the speakers or headphones. Maybe also a comment from someone close to you. If the feedback is positive, you will feel encouraged in your plan. You will continue to work voluntarily, madly and without your knowledge until your sore fingers tell you that you have gradually exceeded the limits. When your project works, you forget everything around you, especially time.

so-called "five-tone space". Each finger is responsible for one key. In one chapter, beginners also learn that this will no longer be the case later and thus gain knowledge about how to play in the future. After the 9 steps, of course, I have to stop thinking about this five-tone space again. But now you understand how it works: with lots and lots of caution. In this way, with my methodology, the beginner is confronted with familiar themes from a very young age. In the intensive course, gospels, simplified classical themes, well-known film music, blues structures and even a real four-hand project are included. The young performer is automatically confronted with a variety of musical styles and basically has the opportunity to choose one of these musical styles. The beginner discovers from the first minute that his piano playing does not sound like a beginning and it is almost certain that he will not give up these lessons. In any case, I have not experienced this yet, and it should remain so...

As a piano teacher for 25 years, the "young generation" has been particularly important to me. Today's beginners are tomorrow's professionals. You have to do everything in your power to nurture the young shoots and support them in their growth. Right from the beginning of my work, I realized that conventional piano books (there were 172 a few years ago, and I'm only talking about the German-speaking area) often overwhelm the student or are designed in such a childish way that no progress can be seen. So I felt compelled to create my own course. Piece by piece. Step by step. Challenge after challenge. From the first piece, one must achieve such lasting motivation that it makes one want to play the next piece. This is not an easy task. The melodies must be catchy and even familiar. At the beginning, the basics of music theory are taught. We play 18 pieces only with the right hand. During this time, the beginner's ear develops a little, because the pieces have one or two backing tracks. Let's call this the teacher's way. The student gets used to playing with a sound. The prerequisite for later accompanying soloists or performing four-hand pieces as a duet. From piece 19, the left hand is carefully added. Now I do everything I can to not overwhelm the beginner, but rather to motivate him with the sound.
I will also use this methodology in the following steps of hand positioning. All the 9 steps are in the
