Teaching Adult Piano Students

Most pedagogical training and materials tends to focus on kids, teens, and budding professionals as students. However, many people take up or resume piano study as adults, without any intention of having a musical career. Adults students require a different approach to technique, repertoire, and even lesson format than what is often standard for students under 18. As a specialist teaching adult amateur pianists at all levels, Andrew will share strategies, trends, and teaching techniques for teachers to feel confident and prepared for working with adult students.
