There are different types of methods depending on the age of the student.

• 4 to 6 years old will start with “Music for little Mozarts” method.

• 6 years and up will go straight to “Faber piano adventures” method.

• Students who have completed the Faber method may continue on to “Bastien piano literature” and “Faber piano Literature.”

• In addition to the curricula described above, all students must complete “Theory Time” method.

Music for little Mozarts

This method goes from book one to book four; each level includes a lesson book and workbook. Every class, the student learns small pieces from the lesson book. Then, they reinforce what they’ve learned by completing a corresponding assignment in the work book— a fun, age-appropriate activity which incorporates art and coloring.

Theory Time

Theory Time method is the single most effective method I’ve ever come across in my years of musical education; as such, all of my piano students must incorporate Theory into their studies. The method goes from primer level to book 12, covering the knowledge musicians must know in order to understand and appreciate what they are playing— a facet of musical education that is very important to me.

Piano Literature

Piano Literature covers level 1 to level 4. It helps students to learn about and cultivate an appreciation for the music of the most influential masters of their times. The pieces gradually increase in complexity until the student reaches a late-intermediate level. These methods are for the most committed and disciplined students who undergo daily practice.

Faber Piano Adventures

This method book covers the primer level, up to level five. It takes the student step-by-step through learning to read musical notes, counting, and the basics of theory by learning a variety of pieces: some nice, some serious, and others fun.
