Hope - Your piano teacher

I have been playing the piano since I was 12 years os age. This was right after I learned to play the drums and played for my local church for almost 4 years.. One year later I joined a university band and this helped me grow and improve quickly. I set out to start teaching the piano in my local church when there was a need to groom new musicians in the church. I initially did the traijing for free and trained about 4 keyboadirst who joined the church band. Bu this time, the demand for learning to play the laino had increased and I even had some interested students coming from our sister branch to learn.. My focus and advice to all my students is not to be just as good as I am, but to strive to be better, way better than I am. Discover and develop your own unique style and pattern.

Piano lessons at a glance

My teaching methodology involves a tailored curriculum for each student. That means I do not use the same curriculum for any 2 students. This is because everyone's learning ability and pace differs. Some people have a prior musical background and this gives them some kind of start off. All of these are taken into consideration as well as what the student knows and what they'd need to develop. As the training goes on, we modify and add to the curriculum any more learning topics to aid in the process of the student to the next. Part of what I also do to improve my students growth is the use of engaging exercises home and classwork. Feedback from friends and family. As a matter of fact all my classes are yniques. My turns are always looking forward to next session with me.

Hopez Gee coached Samuel Cawaon on vocal techniques, focusing on breath control, timing with a metronome, and tonal accuracy, using Ed Sheeran's "Perfect" as a practice piece. Samuel worked on vocal exercises and applying breath control to improve his singing. As homework, Samuel was assigned to learn Garth Brooks' "Make You Feel My Love" precisely, in preparation for the next lesson.
