When you’re learning piano from on-line lessons, your teacher doesn’t just tell you what to do. Your teacher shows you what to do. Record your sessions and then watch how your teacher sits, shapes their fingers, uses their hands and arms, and then you can adjust your own playing to match. You can listen to what your teacher plays, and then work until your own playing sounds the same.
In most traditional piano lessons, students don’t get to see the teacher play very often. They don’t have the example of a teacher playing something correctly, over and over, for them to watch and imitate. When students see and hear a piece played correctly, they will unconsciously,match their own playing to that of the teacher. They will correct their own mistakes because they’re seeing good posture and hearing how the piano is supposed to sound.
Learning online doesn’t have to be an isolating experience. Students connect through the Alderwood Piano Facebook page. You can share your progress and get feedback from people who are learning just like you. All students can post videos of their piano playing for their fellow students to see. Way less intimidating than playing for an audience.
Online learning allows you to learn more in less time. For one thing, when you take piano lessons online you don’t have to spend time driving to your teacher’s home or studio.
The best way to find out if online lessons really work is to give it a try. If you’ve been thinking about piano lessons for yourself or someone else in your life, check out Alderwood Piano Online Lessons where the first lesson is free. Experience how much fun it can be to learn the piano from the comfort of your own home.

Testimonials
from students
We were fortunate enough to have Vera teaching our children this last year. We had 4 children (ages 8 through 17) doing lessons and Vera has done well with each age and level. She was able to teach them a lot in her time with them. They each looked forward to their lessons. Vera is well educated and skilled in both teaching and music. She has also done a very good job of balancing encouragement and constructive criticisms. Each of our children and myself recommend Vera Alder highly.
I always loved the piano but thought I had missed my chance to learn to play until I met Vera. With her masterful teaching, patience and understanding of adult learning styles (even seniors) I am learning to play piano and understand music at a deeper level than I could ever hoped. Never give up it gives us hope and brings blessings to our lives.
Mrs. Alder had my 5th grader reading music in no time, and allowed him to choose some of his own pieces from day one. His confidence and love for music exploded under her direction.
