The first is musette, he has bee playing this for a while and was trying to play with the videos, but was struggling to follow your hands, we are having him play with the hidden notes though to keep his playing in time. Score 4PH 70/70 t15

On this video he is playing on PH very accurately, ready to practice with no computer, just by heart. After that I would recommend him to move on to the TEACHING VIDEOS an try to play alone with metronome and without.

The next is Ode to Joy from favorite classics 1. Today is his third day learning to play this. Score: 1P 88/88 t60

Goal for this piece to drop the time 'till 30 - maximum 40. After that you may move on to memorizing the piece: play it using R - RH, L - LH and P - PH. Try to make the score perfect with less time. This piece is complicated. I would also recommend you to cut the song by 4 bars and learn in smaller chunks.

Finally here is a video of him sight reading the alphabet song with both hands. This was his first time with this song. Score: 2P 47/48 t47

Excellent job. Coordination in process of being built. Before the practicing I also would recommend to play 'lines-spaces' game, when you'll ask to play 1,2,3, 4 or 5 line (green or brown of your choice) and spaces between. This game we need to help to establish visual connection between lines and spaces and piano keys.

Here is Blaise playing Robot Rock he has been working on it for a few weeks as suggested by Hellene. It's hard for me to believe he only started playing 7 months ago.



He is working very hard to get this one ready for the recital. He has Musette and Rock group Boogie down pat and practices them a few times a day with the video. He is also working on Memorizing Ode to Joy he is about 3/4 of the way done so that shouldn't be a problem for the recital. The recital is such good motivation for him.

Linzy, he is awesome! Please, tell him that Mrs. Hiner is very proud of his progress!
