The Music Teachers National Association recommends that 4-6 year olds enroll in programs that "introduce your child to the instrument, but also involve movement, rhythm activities, singing and more." For this reason, we have developed Piano Prep School. This is a program of in-your-home private music lessons geared towards helping children "get ready" for more serious piano study. Piano Prep School focuses on keyboard basics, basic note-reading, rhythm and ear training, singing and movement. Children learn fun and familiar songs on their home piano or keyboard and have simple practice assignments from week to week. The program is run by Pam Perry, a seasoned teacher with experience in early childhood music education. If you are interested in learning more about the program and its availability in Palos Verdes and the beach cities, please visit the Piano Prep School website for more information.
