To introduce yourself in the forum and ask questions is the very right things to do!

Let me first introduce my daughter, her name is Ana, she is almost 8 years old (in December she wil be , she studies piano for more than 1 year, so far only once per week. We were thinking how can make her practice piano a bit more often and we came across this program (somebedy recommended it to us) which we found pretty interesting and attractive.

The difference between this program and private piano lessons is that we offer a full, well-balanced curriculum that will give your child advantage in her entire academic future. Besides teaching how to play the piano we also teach sight-reading, transposing, chords, applicable theory, music appreciation, music history, theory, provide ear training and give the solid music education that is offered in the leading music schools in the world. We use very effective active learning app;roach, when the beginner have hand on experience on every subject that they learn.

Therefore, I would recommend you to start learning with Prep C Lesson plan. We can choose the more advance piano pieces, but will go through all other activities from scratch since that should be the very foundation for the entire future learning process.

I read in the User Manual that it would be helpful to start introducing ourselves here, on the forum, and we might get "personalized" assistance or some sort of guidance what to start with and how to use the program.

Yes. Learning is the most effective, when interactive. It is not enough to have just interactive software. The essence of our students' success is the interaction with the piano teachers and community members on line, our recitals and tests.

Since we have only purchased the very short license (just to accomodate with it and to figure out if we decide to go further, but also for financial reasons .. ) we don't have dosuments: “Sample Curriculum.pdf” and “1.0 Start HERE – 1 year lesson plan.pdf.
So far this was about us, we look forward for further questions.
Thanks a lot!
