Your use of a tree analogy and visuals to explain interval reading is brilliant; thank you! The chapters that match the time stamps are: 0:13 (1) Understand skips and steps 3:15 (2) Know the clefs 4:20 (3) Read music with skips and steps! (Christmas Tree Approach) 7:25 (4) Practice
"Put the note on the right key" is the most basic and most superio skill. I am 60 years old and since I was 9 years old I have been struggling to read music notes. I can read it but puting the notes on the right places in any instruments is soooo fundamental. Than you for this simple but superior lesson "All Cows Eat Grass" doesn't make music if you don't know where on your musical instruments you out theses "c"ows. They would run all over on your i instruments😅
Awsome Awsome Awsome. Your simple but superio lesson today helped with my life-long challenge of reading music without COUNTING each notes......wow.Thank You!!!❤. My caws can eat grass at anywhere they want to. I got my skips and steps😅
For more advanced students, do you have any tips that can help with reading notes that go above and below the 5 lines of each clef? I am OK up to about 3 lines above and below but after that I find myself having to count the lines and spaces in the music, matching to the correct keys and then memorizing that section of the music.
Thankyou sir for good tutorials am a subscriber and am learning. Kindly help me here. When should one start sight reading exactly? It seems so hectic to look at two cleffs at once. How much knowledge must one gather to start trying sightreading pieces. Finally kindly if you have any of such simple pieces in pdf that can assist in starting off a person(self taught pianists) you may share.
You can start sight-reading as early as you understand steps/skips. All my students start reading as young as 5. It is going to be overwhelming at first and that’s why daily practice of reading is essential. If you want to work on sight-reading, I encourage you to try Paul Harris “Improve your sight-reading” series, they are quite good for beginners.
I usually just use my own numbering system and haven’t found any difficulty when using it with other method books. If a particular book is showing a different numbering system then I just skip it in the book to avoid confusion.
@zeroossi5967 for chords, try to see the shape of the intervals. For example, a 3rds has a certain shape, and a 4th has a certain shape. Once you recognize the shape, it should help you read faster

Wonderful video! Like 3👍.
Thank you very much! 💗
Have a great day! 🌅
Thank you for your kind words!
Awesome, thanks Dr Wong.
I love how you explained this! I will definitely be trying this with my students!

Could you do a video on ledger lines, please?
Excellent, thank you.

I still ask them to count the lines (skips). For example, on treble clef a high A is on the 6th line, and the high C is on the 7th line, etc.

I love your method, but does it mix them up when calling bass clef lines different numbers than found in 99% of books?

need more to bit advanced students. akkords? patterns?
Could you tell me more what you are struggling with specifically in terms of reading? Thank you!

Maybe just learn to play lots and lots of your favourite super easy songs and keep reading.
That works too!
