Frequently Asked Questions:

Are the Live Discussions Mandatory?

This cohort is designed with live participation in mind. If you need to miss a session, replays will be available. Those interested in enrollment should plan to be present at the majority of Friday sessions in order to experience maximum benefit.

*Teachers unable to attend the live Friday sessions are still welcome to register. However, we view live participation as a significant part of the value you receive with this purchase. Ultimately, you decide what works best for you.

75-minute cohort meetings will take place on Fridays at 12pm (eastern time).

Is the Textbook Required?

Yes. Our curriculum will be based entirely on the reference text: Professional Piano Teaching, Volume Two.

(Note: Please make sure you are purchasing Volume Two, geared toward Intermediate-Advanced teaching)

Additionally, we are asking all participants to purchase books 4, 5, and 6 of the Masterworks Classics series.
