...on Teaching materials and methodology

Detailed information about some of the quality teaching materials we use The Piano Adventures Series for children, Piano Adventures for beginning, elementary and early intermediate adults, and the Favorite Classics and Music for Little Mozarts series from Alfred publishing. During summer months, we use a wide variety of musical games for all ages and levels. One of the primary sources for these games is a wonderful book entitled Music Mind Games by Michiko Yurko.
