    None of the self-centered piano teachers I've been to ever taught me what you have in the span of a few videos. This is what I've been looking for the past 15 years, thank you!

    To sound busier and fuller:
    1. do more of what you are already doing 00:38
    2. adding passing notes 2:18
    3. play notes that compliment the root note 3:38
    4. add octaves 7:00

    Firstly, you ‘explain’ everything so well indeed…(and)…at the correct ‘pace’ for a 71+ years young-at-heart-and-mind-and-soul ‘Senior Citizen’ (beginner, like me)...(and)…make it ‘look’ so ‘easy’…though, NOT yet for me at this stage, may I add! But, (may I add), your ‘techniques’ sound absolutely awesome…”DHANYAVAAD!”…Pianote with Lisa.

    You know, a lot of us out here take lessons, learn scales and take grades but very often is doesn't sound musical. What you have done here, for me at least, is shown me how to sound musical with the most basic chords. Thank you so much.

    I'm beginner and "self-taught" (1 year of piano playing only) but i can for sure say that i wouldn't have been able to what i can do now if it weren't for you. Your videos aren't just helpful, you also know how to pedagogically transmit the knowledge and that's what a lot of coaches/teachers can sadly lack of. Thanks for everything ❤

    Thank you so very much for being such a great instructor. I am a beginner and having a lot of fun with chords after learning them from your video lessons. I was also struggling with a piece of music; it sounded SO WRONG even though I practiced the piece diligently. After watching one of your videos, I added emotion and dynamics to the piece of music. Wow! There was an immediate improvement. Thank you for making piano lessons simple, fun and interesting!
