We offer beginning through advanced private instruction for students ages 6 through adulthood in the Jacksonville area. We offer an effective methodology that incorporates all musical competencies and encourages exploration and self-directed study. Our services our exceptional in that we demonstrate, drill, test, and provide written reports on student progress. We ensure that each student has an adequate understanding of essentials before progressing to advanced levels. We also believe that we offer a better learning environment for beginners as we teach from our homes which reduces distraction. We do our best to keep our pianos tuned which is important for developing a good sense of pitch.
Multimediapiano.com emphasizes learning to read, memorize, and play music at sight. At the same time, we also believe that ear and rhythm training, transcription, improvisation, and ensemble skills are vital for ambitious piano students. Therefore, to help prevent the development of bad habits (such as poor timing) arising from practicing primarily alone, we've begun to incorporate multimedia methods including instrumental backing tracks, interactive computer programs, and musical games into our training. The result is a more interesting, more thorough, and more effective method. For intermediate and advanced students we have a voluntary musical knowledge assessment that may be taken in order to help us detect any knowledge gaps from previous training. As soon as possible, we aim towards working on pieces that are oriented to what students want to learn, whether classical, pop, blues, or jazz.
Piano competence is the result of a dedicated teacher, a comprehensive training program, and a student who is motivated to practice regularly. Our likable teachers are professional, degreed educators willing to integrate technology into private instruction in order to increase interest and the speed at which students may learn. We'll make sure you get affordable and effective hands-on and computer-assisted training. We consider these to be the some of the "keys" to success in playing the piano.
