First of all, don’t let that question scare you… in my curriculum you won’t be limited to 5 finger songs… I have remedied that and you will be able to play some familiar songs right away.  However, aside from my special “remedy” I do start with teaching you a few songs in the 5 finger position. The reason you won’t find the songs you want to learn in an easy 5 finger format is because most songs have a broader reach of notes than just the 5 fingers.   You won’t get into the more familiar songs until you have increased your knowledge of notes.

In a well thought out curriculum you will be introduced to reading notes a few at at time so that it is not overwhelming. Think of it like learning to read as a 5 year old.  You can only give a few letters at a time, then small words, then sentences, then books.

What is my remedy for 5 finger songs?  As a teacher I understand the need and enjoyment of learning familiar songs so I have developed a special format called Instant Play songs, designed for instant gratification! ~smile~  While you are climbing up the ladder learning a few notes at a time, you can use my Instant Play songs to play familiar songs right away because they do not require any note reading.  Make sure you check them out in your free lesson area.!
