    Who here has trouble counting while trying to play it at the same time

    Best counting rhythm lesson ever. Over 30 years of music lessons and this has finally made it clear. Never too late to learn something new.
  • @redfushion
    If I had a music teacher with 1/16 of your clarity back in primary school, I'd be a musician today. Thanks a lot for making these.
  • @jimianderson809
    Thank you, you really are a great teacher, I just want to say that I've alway's wanted to learn how to play piano as well as learn how to read music, and now I feel with your easy explanation in the lessons that you give, I will learn, and like they say, your never too old to learn, I am 61 and your lessons are making me much more confident that it will happen, so again, thank you!
  • I am over 60 and decided during the pandemic to learn the piano. My father was a professional musician so it's in my blood but I never took lessons. Looked at several online courses but yours was the best. I am a visual learner and reading a book just wasn't helpful. Your courses are simply explained with clear examples. Thank you

    This is literally the most important part of piano learning that people do not exactly realize how important this is.

    Finally! Someone that explains this correctly! I just started playing a week or so ago & knew my timing was off but couldn't find how to accurately do so! Thanks again!
  • @chimaera01
    This video cleared up a few things I was confused about but I still have a number of questions: 1. Why do you say e +a specifically? Does the e and the a mean anything specifically? 2. What about irregular signatures like a 5:8 for instance? How does that work and how does it sound? 3. What about the different scales like playing in A or E for instance? How does that work and how does it sound?
  • @TealTrump11
    This is great! I've been thinking of a way that I can teach my students how to do length of notes. I usually just introduced what count or division you say with the note (i.e. I wouldn't teach e+a until I was teaching 16th, and + until I taught 8th notes. ). My way was fast but I knew there would be issues when it came to understanding length of notes. Having more than one way to teach note lengths is always helpful
