Lisa,
Great tips! I am hung up at the present, trying to make myself read the notes for all the songs in Lesson 7. Doing this has slowed my progress greatly. All the familiar songs with the previously learned notes are ok, but as I go through the lessons and we are adding new notes, I find my confidence for the ones I already knew by just their position on the staff, is less! When I tried to learn to play piano by myself a few years back, I went through an each song and wrote in all the note names. If I did this now, I could learn a new piece in no time. (I had been able to learn all the notes on the piano keys, but not on a music staff, without writing them in.) But I am fighting that urge now, to write in the note names! Old habits are very hard to break! So this video clip of those few strategies is right on target for me. I practiced with a new piece, as you said, and found I could actually find quite a few notes using those tips! Thanks for your on-going support!

Hi, Lisa. Your note speed reading is very helpful. As a musician on instruments other than piano, I was taught the old way for learning the lines and spaces with “Every Boy Does Fine Always” and for spaces; “what a beautiful FACE you have.
May 24th, 2009 at 6:37 am
Thank you. This will help me get back on the piano. All these hints help me really enjoy playing. I have past your name onto many here in Australia.
May 24th, 2009 at 9:49 am
Ooops. I left out “Good” before Boy. A senior moment for sure.

Lisa,
Establishing Anchor Notes!! How simple and intuitive! Those simple words will grow my skills. It’s what I’ve been missing. I’m trying so hard to grasp the relationship of the notes on the scale adding to my frustration at times. Thanks for the helpful tip. I’ll let you know it works. PS - I also enjoyed the flash card site.
I need to take advantage of all you’re sharing with us. Thanks for helping me reach for one of my lifetime goals.

Lisa,
I’m still working diligently at speed reading the notes. It’s helpful as is the finger exercises. Thank you for all the tips. It does take constant practice and concentration, but it’s all worth it for my goal of playing the piano for pure pleasure.
June 9th, 2009 at 10:44 am
I have learned basic notes, but am not familiar enough to read it without going through EveryGod Boy
so learning about the fifth interval was very helpful. Thanks!

Thanks Lisa, your “read speeding” tips help me a lot in playing more smoothly.
August 29th, 2009 at 1:47 pm
Thanks Lisa! you’re an amazing piano teacher. I’ve always wanted to learn to play the piano and after I followed your lessons 1 and 2 I’m amazed at what I’ve achieved in an hour interval.
These are practical, easy to follow, step by step lessons.
It all used to look like black and white stripes to me and I never had confidence to touch those keys until today.
I can’t wait to get to lesson 3.
I really hope that my new found excitement with playing my piano will be sustained.
God Bless you Lisa from the United Kingdom.
