You don't have a piano or electronic keyboard? We've got you! Get your FREE 3-page download about Piano/ Keyboard Equipment now! It will tell you everything you need to know and what to get to start right away! We make it easy!

Special note for homeschoolers: We know homeschooling your child can be challenging! From years of experience, we have found most girls are ready for private learning at about age 8 1/2 - 9. Boys, closer to 9. If you have younger children, divide up the videos in VERY small chunks. Five minutes may be the maximum time your child can sit still and that's fine! Make learning fun, giving them a small treat or break every time they practice. Younger children need a lot of activity and movement, so dance, clap rhythms and play notes together on the keyboard.

  • Downloadable 80-page Study Guide

Homeschooling-Music-Education-Deborah Johnson

What an excellent class! We are using it with our homeschool this year and my children enjoy Deborah's engaging videos. The content has been easy to understand and laid out in a way that makes them eager to work on each day. The manual provides a handy chart to check off their daily practice assignments which makes it makes it easy for me to keep track of where they are and reward them for progress made. I highly reccomend this class to anyone looking to get started with piano!

I sang this song at my mothers funeral. Also it was the first song I sang as a solo in church when I was a young boy! The arrangement is beautiful. The instructor does a wonderful presentation of the songs history and the study materials. I give “In the Garden” a five star rating!

Many learners get anxious and give up way too soon. It doesn't matter how old you are, you can learn and enjoyWhen you start playing your chords up and down the keyboard, you won't want to quit!

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I have no experience?

You don't need any previous experience or to even know your note names. You will be guided through all steps you need to know to be successful!

How much should I practice? 

Consistent practice is most important. Even 10-15 minutes 5x a week will bring great success. 

Am I too old? I've always wanted to play, but am now an older adult! 

You are really never too old! You have to decide to take your time and enjoy the process. Music is great for the mind and your spirit. It's also just plain fun! 

What kind of piano or keyboard do I have to have and will it be expensive?

Of course, an acoustic piano is always optimal, but even a small electronic seld-contained keyboard (that doesn't need a speaker) will work! They are portable and you can store them in a side closet. Make sure you also purchase a stand (they are very reasonable) and have a comfortable seat. For less than $150 (U.S.) you will have all you need to get started!

I don't want anyone to hear me play. What should I do?

With any electronic keyboard, there should be a place to plug in earphones. With earphones, you can happily practice, whether day or night, not disturbing anyone!

I'm a music major and struggle with piano proficiency. Will this help me?

Definitely! I'd start working with Keys to the Keyboard right away! It will help you with music theory as well as your piano proficiency!

Deborah Johnson-2019

"Remember, you are never too old to start a program like this. Take your time and enjoy the process. There are very few "overnight successes." Consistency, along with the expert guidance you are getting with this program will help you learn and play successfully!"
