People learn better when they use several senses. We use video, so you can see how it is played, hear the instructor explain how it is played and you can practice along with the video lesson to help in learning finger placement, timing and syncopation.

Each session can work as a stand-alone to learn and understand a concept and they are designed to be a curriculum that works in linear succession. You get free downloadable sheet music or charts for each session when applicable and an audio clip to help speed your learning and application.

I am glad that you are thinking about learning to play the piano. This is my passion, to play with friends and to teach others how to play. That is why I started Learn Keys by Ben. What makes this site so different is that it is an actual collaboration between a teacher and a student. Learn Keys by Ben is built with the two viewpoints. One on how to have a great teaching method and two on how to make the learning experience one that is clear and complete. That is what makes us different. It is designed for people who want to learn fast and play their favorite songs. We strive to make the experience great, something that is fun, and yet a serious learning site. And we cost less per month than you would spend for fancy lattes. Try us out!
