“Pianote is an insanely encouraging and supportive community run by an insanely encouraging and supportive team. Sincerely, I’m blown away by the program you’ve created.

I sat down one day and it just clicked. From then on, I’ve felt VERY encouraged to keep learning and practicing. It’s fulfilling and fun to see myself progress and achieve goals. Now I’m playing with both hands at the same time with confidence – and I’ve started playing along with more backing tracks and making up my own songs.”

“You guys make learning way too fun.

I’ve had two breakthrough moments. There was this video that promised hand independence in five days. And what do you know? A few days later I’m a lot better at using both hands and it just opened up a bunch more songs for me. And my second breakthrough moment was finding this chord chart that made it so much easier to go through the chords and practice them. And I started realizing that these chords sounded a lot like the ones I play on guitar. So I managed to take the notes that were in the practice log and apply them to my guitar, and actually learned theory for both instruments at once. Thank you Lisa and happy playing!”

“My name is Xitlali. I’m six years old. I started playing piano when I was five. A few weeks ago, I started using pianote. My biggest moment is when I play Für Elise.”

“I decided to sign up with Pianote not only to re-learn how to play the piano, but also because my mental health was really suffering and I needed something positive to focus on that was just for ME. I knew almost immediately that this was the answer I had been looking for. It felt like the heaviness on my shoulders got a bit lighter after every piano session. And even though the lessons are virtual, it was like Lisa was right there beside me cheering me on.

I was blown away by how quickly I progressed with a few tutorials from Lisa. My overall confidence improved, especially with improvisation. Now I know all these little tricks (fills & riffs) and how to play inversions and practice chords in ways that sound so lovely. If I had been taught this way as a child, I probably never would have quit.”
