Deciding to do something about the demand for online piano lessons I spent a couple of months in the summer of 2009 (the concert season always goes quieter for me in the summer) studying all the “how to play piano courses” available online. I was looking for several different criteria and to my surprise many of the learn piano courses I looked at fell by the wayside for more then a few of them.

I needed to see several different “must haves” if these online piano lessons were to pass muster and to my surprise many of the piano courses were lacking in crucial areas

The criteria I considered were:
 |
The Price: This was certainly a consideration but not the most important as all the how to play piano courses IÂ investigated were certainly cheaper than traditional private lessons.
|
|
Video: Any respectable piano lessons course would have to include this and obviously this was an important consideration as the main reason I feel I can recommend online courses is the advancement in web video technology.
|
|
Audio: When learning how to play piano it’s very important to be able to hear what you should be sounding like. This is why teaching in person has been the only realistic method until now. There had to be plenty of audio examples in the course for it to get past my demands for this criteria.
|
|
Child AND Adult Friendly: As probably 80% of people wanting to learn to play piano online are probably children it was important that any course I recommend should be in simple enough terms so that a child can progress easily and yet I didn’t want the course to be “talking down” to the adult pupils either. The best private teachers know how to do this and so should the best Online Piano Lessons.
|
|
Diversity of Styles: Everybody has their own type of favorite music. I felt it imperative that everybody has the same chance of success when trying to learn to play piano online regardless of their personal taste.

The two courses providing the Best Online Piano Lessons were
