Before we discovered Bardiya in Fairmount, my adolescent son was having trouble sight reading. His usage of a hybrid digital piano with visual aids made everything much easier. Bardiya varied approach, which includes both classical and contemporary film themes, has revived my son's passion.

Piano concept taught by Bardiya
Bardiya introduced Kayla to the foundational elements of piano playing, including proper posture, hand positioning, and finger numbering. Kayla quickly grasped how to identify notes on the keyboard, with a particular focus on the note C, and was also given an introduction to basic music reading. For her homework, Kayla is to compose a short song using five notes around middle C.

Bardiya's piano lesson with a student from Miami Dade College focused on technique exercises (Group Two A-D) with both hands and the song "Up to the Moon," which they were instructed to practice with a metronome. They discussed adjusting practice strategies and ran out of time to cover the grand staff. The student was assigned to continue practicing "Up to the Moon" with a metronome, gradually increasing the tempo, and to practice the Group Two exercises with both hands together.
