We have the right tool for every job. Part of individualized learning is choosing the right curriculum and learning tools for each piano student. So whether you have serious plans for music and piano or just want to enjoy playing this beautiful instrument, there is a program for you.
The Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) program builds solid piano skills and comprehensive musicianship. It also grants official recognition of the student’s progress through standardized examinations. It can very well lay the ground for a possible musical career.
Completion of Grade 8 Piano RCM counts as a high school credit, which is a good goal for many young students. Please find more details in our Piano FAQ or visit RCM.
Popular Piano Methods – by authors like Alfred or Faber- offer another learning path, covering efficiently the basics of piano playing up to the intermediate level. With this program, students can achieve their music goals at their own pace without restrictions on repertoire or the pressure of an exam.
I created a library of teaching materials, which continues to grow and supplements what is taught during the in-home piano lesson. Video tutorials, custom-made music/piano arrangements and audio tracks are available online and can be accessed from the Music Smart Library page. You might even find there one of your favourite songs!

An in-home piano lesson contains a few activities that develop essential music skills. You not only learn A SONG, but you train your body and your mind to play MUSIC.
Learn how to position your body at the piano, use your arms and hands efficiently, and develop fingers strength, flexibility, speed and control.
Knowing musical concepts, signs and terms will help you understand how music is organized and ultimately learn faster and play the piano better.
A music score is, after all, a map, a set of instructions. If you know how to read it, you can learn even a complex piece of music more efficiently.
Train your musical ear to differentiate sounds by pitch, and hear internally how they sound when grouped in intervals and chords. As a result, you will be able to play “by ear”, and you will understand and learn music more easily.
All skills come together for the main purpose: to play beautiful music on the piano for your own enjoyment and, why not, for an audience who will be moved by your performance.
