Weekly Individual Piano Lessons
Piano teachers will also learn how to TEACH music theory, improvisation, and composition. I refer to this as Theory Therapy™, Innovative Improvisation™ and Creative Composition™.
The lessons taught each Monday morning follow the schedule according to each week:
WEEK 1: COOL SONGS and ESSENTIAL PIANO EXERCISES
WEEK 2: Music Theory - Theory Therapy™ (the practical application of music theory)
WEEK 3: Improvisation - Innovative Improvisation™ (learn to play the same song 100 ways)
WEEK 4: Composition - Creative Composition™ (connect with the composer within YOU)
Lessons are taught on Monday mornings from 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM (MST - Mountain Standard Time - Utah, USA time). This is an hour and a half lesson each week. If you are unable to attend the live lessons, each lesson is recorded and will also be uploaded within your customer portal, so you can watch and rewatch any of the lessons at your convenience. Some piano teachers around the world are not able to attend the live lessons at all, but they watch the recordings the next day within their account.

"Jerald Simon is an expert at reaching teen students and connecting to them with the music they love.
With his COOL SONGS Series, Jerald creates amazing orchestral backing tracks which are stunning! I know how much my students enjoy playing along with backing tracks! You'll love using these COOL SONGS with your students (and so will they)!"
- Tim Topham
"Jerald Simon is a creative music guru when it comes to anything that can be created from an essential piano exercise.
What is cool about all his essential piano exercises is what you could ultimately turn around and do with them. Compose, improvise, arrange, mash ups, remix, the list can go on and on…
And if the exercises aren’t enough, Jerald is always there and willing to lend plenty of support through online groups, lessons, and challenges."
- Jennifer Foxx
"In the online world, it can sometimes be difficult to find real, genuine instructors who are interested and invested in you.
Fortunately Jerald is not only an inspiring music teacher, but also a wonderful person. He cares about making piano practical and fun."
- Allysia Van Betuw
These are the three areas that most music students and piano teachers want to learn more about and this is Jerald's main focus. As Jerald has presented workshops and master classes across the country, most pianists feel they need to learn more about music theory, how to improvise, and compose music of their own. Let Jerald help you learn how to play the music you want to play. Jerald's COOL SONGS and Essential Piano Exercises help you learn to play piano - the FUN way!
