Some common questions
No not at all. Its my job to explain it in a way that anyone can understand, which I've done 1000s of times. If you don't get it that's on me and you can just get a refund - you won't need to though.
Any keyboard or piano will do. If you don't have one, some students have used free apps on their tablets or phones even
No, absolutely not. I will show you how to find simple information online that will show you what chords to play easily and the course teaches you how to memorise those chords easily
Errr.. no
No, using this method anyone can realise their dream of becoming someone who can play the piano
No. This is not about teaching you to learn classical piano. That is a very different, long and difficult journey. This is about having fun playing the songs you want to and if that's cheating then there is something seriously wrong with our approach to music - which should be joyous and accessible in all its forms.
YES!
