I did improve on the Nursery songs and tried higher levels too. On the guess key game, I will aim for 5 minutes, because it was first time, I went a little longer to learn how it works. I will record on video myself this week. Thank you for all your help!

i can't seem to send a video, everytime I try, it disappears.

Thank you very much for sharing the video!
Here what I have noticed so far:

1. You don't look at your hands. It is a very good sign!
2. Piano touch is gentle. You play rhythmically.
3. You have good control over your fine motor skills.

Now the suggestions:

1. Posture. Please move your seat a little back.
2. Do you have higher chair? If not, piano should be a little lower. Your elbows should be above the keys.
3. Pretend that your arm is a 'pipe'. Get rid off the angle in the elbow. The imaginary 'water' should fall down from your shoulder to the keys.

Another set of suggestions considering your playing:
1. Don't master piano pieces for sight-reading. It doesn't help you to develop eye-sight for lines and spaces.
2. Play exercises every day. I have chosen beginner's piano pieces, where fingers fastened to piano keys. It is called 'hand position' songs. We have to fight fastening from the start, even though we use. Play exercises through all the octaves. Play with metronome. Increase speed gradually. You have to know all the keys with your eyes closed
3. Other methods start with enforcing correct fingering. They do, because they don't give your vision ability to see the notes and corresponding keys. Don't be afraid to play with the 'wrong' fingers. Avoid perfection. Sight-read more piano pieces. With quantity will go to quality.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thanks, this will help me very much, I will work on the points you made.
