Today is November 15, 2014. \u00a0I began teaching piano online in April 10, 2009.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can read about this in Piano World – Learn Piano With Rosa<\/a>\u00a0by BigbeardDale<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It’s been 5 years<\/strong> and now with new technology with ipads, androids, tablets, smartphones, Online schools are gaining more and more popular as we enter into 2015. When I started teaching piano, I began with workshops and selling hard copies of my piano method books. \u00a0Then I turned my books into digital books and videos so people can buy on the net. Now, people want them on their mobile devices.<\/p>\n

And during these 5 years,<\/strong> at the request of students, I began to develop one course to another meeting their learning needs. \u00a0Many students have been desperate in search of structured piano courses to guide them from one level to the next. It is in response to their requests that I have developed over 56 individual stand alone courses<\/strong> for them. You can see them in my Learn Piano With Rosa<\/a> website.<\/p>\n

And most important of all<\/strong>, during all the development I have a retired music teacher, Alene Thornton<\/strong>, to go over ALL my materials, test all my videos, do all my courses before any of the launches. \u00a0Even though she is a music teacher, she always approaches my course as if she is a beginner to see if there is anything there is unclear or concepts assumed that need further clarification. \u00a0So we have had tons of emails back and forth to get all my courses better and better. \u00a0Alene is not an affiliate and gained nothing financially but what we have gained is far more than what money can give us, a treasure of life time friendship<\/strong> sharing our music passion, piano passion and even our personal and family lives. I am very grateful to my kindred friend and mentor.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, while I was developing my piano courses, another friend Rosanna Sun,\u00a0<\/strong>developed my entire website for me. Words cannot express how grateful I am to her detail help in this area.<\/p>\n

While my piano site was developing, we all helped our friend Diane Mathison<\/strong>\u00a0to start her piano online site: Learn Piano With Elssa.<\/a>\u00a0We bonded and the world started to take notice of us, our piano passion, and our willingness to share our knowledge of piano playing with them. \u00a0Together, we have made thousands of piano friends all over the world, and YOU<\/strong>\u00a0included.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In July 2014, my Piano Online School<\/a>\u00a0started.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This has been a long journey. \u00a0But only within 5 years time – \u00a0How much was accomplished in such a short time!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

===================================================================================<\/p>\n

With the new Piano Online School,<\/strong> I am paying monthly fees to get my online school set up to host all my videos and courses. In this way, whenever students want to learn piano, they will have all the courses at their finger tips<\/strong> without searching all over the computer.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Piano Online School is structured a bit differently from my ‘packaged’ courses.<\/strong> \u00a0With my packaged courses, I can put them into ebooks in pdf format and videos. \u00a0Students just download the course and learn from their computer.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With Online School, I have to re-do the courses into Lectures and New HD Video Formatting<\/strong> to suit the needs of the mobile devices. \u00a0All my videos had to be upgraded. \u00a0And those of you who are in my online school would notice that the videos are highly upgraded without any background white noises.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As I develop my Online School, I am updating all the old courses material with NEW<\/span> Screencast Video Lectures<\/strong> for students to have more FUN to grasp music concept even faster and easier. \u00a0When everything is visually<\/strong> done in front of you, you see things in one flash<\/strong> that you are not able to see in ‘reading’ format. \u00a0So 80% of my time are now spent on doing Screencast videos to upgrade the courses.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I realize that many students have bought all my previous courses, and this is why whenever I launch my online courses, I offer 80% discount to ALL students<\/strong>, so that returning students get new value in courses that they have bought previously with these NEWLY ADDED Screencast lecture videos. \u00a0Believe me, the Early Bird Launch\u00a0with Coupons<\/strong> is the BEST<\/span> <\/strong>deal always! It’s for you, my long term regular students \u00a0that there is the 80% special offer! \u00a0And new students are now reaping this benefit also!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

While I am upgrading my online courses, I am also creating BRAND NEW<\/span> courses<\/strong>. \u00a0Yeahhh….. this is what my returning students want as they write to me recently requesting new courses. \u00a0And the Circle of 5ths is one of them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I am happy to announce to you that the BRAND NEW Course<\/span> on CIrcle of 5ths is Launching at my Piano Online School.<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0T<\/a>his is selling very well at Udemy Launch with 1174 students enrolling there. \u00a0Although the course is sold at $249, I have only made $194 in there. With Udemy being a social site, \u00a0there are a lot of paying ads and affiliates there selling my courses for which I only get a very small fraction of money. But in return, my presence is made.<\/p>\n
