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.

Bardiya recently guided Rebecca through a piano lesson, where they delved into musical notes, specifically whole, half, and quarter notes, and their respective counts within measures. Rebecca actively engaged by practicing drawing quarter notes and performing a song, paying close attention to dynamics such as piano and forte, and refining her finger placement. Her assignment for the week includes finishing quarter note exercises and practicing the song found on pages 14 and 15.
