Pianoforall – Reviews

“Dear Robin, I just wanted to say thanks for all your help! I’m so excited to start, I’m getting ready to go down to my piano now… I looked at 6 different online courses and almost bought two before I came across yours, I’m so glad I waited. Yours was better laid out, with more info and a professional feel, yet with ease that looked appealing! Thanks a million…”

Robin, Thanks very much for the CD – I have received it. I am really happy with this purchase, and as advertised, it’s exactly what I was looking for. I played drums when I was younger and I still play now but, I always regret not learning to play the piano. Now that I’m in my mid 40′s, I’m trying to do just that, but of course, the traditional method of learning to play the piano could be quite difficult and time consuming. I knew there were tricks and patterns to playing piano with a natural feel. I just needed something to guide me and your method is right on.

I’m pretty good with reading note values and time signatures and I do have a good ear but, I struggle with reading pitch – especially on both clefs. Your method greatly accelerates the site reading process. Now, if I could only tempt my kids. One’s into guitar and the other doesn’t know what he wants to do. He always looked at piano as this difficult impossible thing to play. Maybe this course might change things. You have structured this course very well and it creates an enjoyable learning process. Great course. Thanks again,

“Robin, I just had to send you a quick email and say thanks for putting this course on the internet at such an affordable price. I got it about 2 weeks ago and it is incredible.

I have tried numerous programs in the past only to find that I got ripped off but this is truly awesome. thanks”

“Hi Robin, Just wanted to say that although I have only just begun to tackle the 1st book, on nearing completion, I have learned more in the last couple of weeks than I have in years of messing around trying to cobble bits and pieces of theory and practice together – without I may add any success.

As a teacher myself I know how important it is to get into the head of the learner in order to discover ways to make things innovative and creative in order that things may stick. So far, from the very simple but incredibly effective way you have put this first book together, you have shown that you have a real talent and an intuitive way of teaching.

I only hope the others in the series are as good as this on – I’m sure they will be; just wish I had more time to explore them!! Regards
Paul”

“Robin, Love the program. I am hooked on learning and you’ve made it even more interesting.

What impresses me the most, however, is the soft and clear presentation of the materials. No ego. No selling. Just music. Your bonus book explained a lot. Thanks for helping. If you are ever in Atlanta you have a place to stay.”

“Robin, Thank you so much for this course.  I have wanted to learn to play my favorite instrument as long as I can remember.  Now that I’m an adult, I am so glad to not have to learn from the child books.

Already being able to play popular songs just amazes me!  I am having so much fun.  Thanks again,”

“I really like your program.  I actually bought it for my son.  It basically teaches how I learned to play piano after years of frustration with trying to sight read.  However, I had to teach myself by using the chord symbols above the staff in sheet music.  I got pretty good at it, but I know that your program will motivate me and teach me a lot more.

You have everything perfectly laid out in a great sequence.   Nice job!, Thanks, Jeff”

Hi Robin, I have been testing out your Piano for All series with my pupils who are 7-12 years old.

I usually use the Piano Adventure Series with them but I find that the classical ‘I, IV, V’ chord names they teach need to be supplimented by the ‘letter’ chord names so that children can understand they are the same thing just said differently. I downloaded three different chordal piano series and brought several books but I found yours to be the easiest to use with my pupils. The children are not the fastest but the great thing about children is that they don’t expect to learn things all in one go and are happy plugging away slowly each week.

I find that once they get to book 2B they are ready to have the Piano Adventure Series supplemented with your series. I have several of boys who really like Jazz and Rock so this method should be very good for them. The problem with children who are only trained using the classical method is that when they reach high school and wish to ‘join a band’ they have no idea what the guitarists etc are talking about. I’m sure that your method will make that transition a LOT easier.

I have only brought one copy but now that I have used it for a few weeks and the pupils are interested in it I am planning on getting my pupils who are benefiting from it to buy it themselves. So you can expect to see a few sales from New Zealand in future.

Thank you for such a well thought out and presented series. Regards,

“I’ve just started your book n°1 and found it great. This is a very pedagogical way of thinking the language of piano. I tried some chords and it sounds like “REAL MUSIC’. As a french beginner, I thought I would have some difficulties with the course in english but in fact you are using very simple words and it is very easy to understand the explanations.
Thank you very much for this great course”

Hi Robin, Your course is everything that you and others said it would be. The lessons are do-able and satisfying. Your videos and sound bites make everything quite clear. I didn’t think I could make the piano sound this good so quickly. If I weren’t so lazy, I would be doing even better. I would highly recommend your course to anyone who wants to learn the piano. Thanks so much. You are making a dream come true.

“Hey Robin we have spoke awhile back about your course..I started on book one and it is awesome..

I play acoustic guitar and sing but i am so excited to play piano now, and it so easy to create chord progressions with your method that the second day already im playing let it be progression. Thanks..it was a blessing finding you, music is my life.”

“Hi Robin, Thanks for your mail. I forgot to include in my address that I am in Australia. I’ve downloaded book 1 and have not touched any other instrument since starting on it. I practice until my hands have cramped up and can take no more. It’s a wonderful instruction book.  Thanks,”

Hi Robin, I’ve recently purchased your course on piano for all and have found it to be really exciting and easy to understand. Thank you for a wonderful course .  Kind Regards

“Dear Robin, To start with, I am very, very pleased with the ‘Piano For All’ course.  As a 63 year old man I find it entertaining, educational and easily understood.  I especially like the bite size lessons that doesn’t overwhelm the student (me).  The presentation of easily attained elements based on simple practice and understandable basics (theory) has the student playing immediately.  Musical goals are accomplished with each sitting, heading towards greater keyboard profficiency.  In other words…. a sense of accomplishment is immediate and inspires one to continue.

Thanks again for a wonderful course, Best Regards,”

“Robin, Your course is exceeding my expectations. I have been working diligently through the first book and I wish I had found this long ago. This has to be one of the best-kept secrets in piano instruction. The audio and video clips are excellent

While I applaud your philosophy, this course is worth far more than you are charging. Thanks again and I am going to get back on the piano. Warm Regards,”

Hi Robin, I like how you set out the course. I think it’s important to be able to sit down and just play a few simple tunes early on or else you just get bored and give up.

I found the videos the best. I’ve read about the circle of 5ths before but only after your demonstration realised I had mis-understood it and how useful it is.

The only trouble I have is getting the time for practise…but then I can’t expect you to sort out all my piano problems  Keep up the good work.

“First testimonial Just from looking at the course. Feel free to use it for advertising if you need to.

Robin, Words to describe your course… Simply Unbelievable!
I just bought and downloaded everything to my computer. The process was so easy. I am a 56 year old guy who has wanted to play the piano my entire life. I really have not jumped in to doing the course as of yet, because I’ve been spending the whole day browsing through it all.

I dug my musical instruments out of the closet [2 guitars and Yamaha keyboard] wiped off the dust ordered your great piano course and now I’m ready to make some music. From browsing through the course I can tell you it’s all there. Nothing is left out! I am so excited to get started, so thanks for everything at such a great price.

Best Regards,”

“My only interest is learning to play Gospel Music. So I have been purchasing only Gospel courses for over 3 years. Pianoforall is the only course that really teaches you the basic foundation using various rhythms, songs and techinques plus more & more advance stuff.

There are so many things to say…. If I asked back for my money I would not be able to sleep & God would not forgave me. This is the course Pianoforall I have been searching for a long time.
I am in my 3rd book…it’s a blessing.

May God continue to Bless You & Family. Have a Blessed Day Robin”

“This program definitely helps me understand chords and read sheet music very easy. Greatest piano program ever. Its worth ten times the price.”

“Hi Robin, I bought your course over a year ago but I only had a cheap keyboard at the time.  I downloaded all the material and then put it away until I could get a better keyboard.  I’m 18 years old and I took piano lessons as a child for 5 years, but I must say that I never learned anything from traditional piano lessons that I am learning from this course.  In this course you teach everything, and I mean EVERYTHING a person should learn in order to play piano like a professional.

In this course, I am learning music and chord theory without even realizing it.  And I am also learning everything I should have learned through traditional piano lessons, but I didn’t learn because the lesson structure just wasn’t holding my attention and I gave up very young.  The amount of time and quality you have put into this is unbelievable.  I did not expect this much when I bought the course.  I absolutely love this course, so thank you!”
