Wunderkeys* Preschool Piano
We understand how kids learn.
We know that kids need carefully-crafted and scaffolded learning delivered in context. WunderKeys method books don’t skip around, make assumptions of students’ knowledge or leave any gaps. Every single lesson builds off the prior knowledge of the preceding lesson in a predictable way that will leave you saying, “This makes so much SENSE!”
We also know that kids can’t sit on a bench for 30 minutes straight, and that students need method books that will get them off the bench to play games and use physicality to demonstrate understanding. WunderKeys books include frequent, guided, off-bench and ear-training activities that are fun and effective.One to one lessons with engaging music, games, movement, math and piano. Prepare or enhance your child's school experience.
