Pop music quite often isn’t that hard to learn, but a lot of teachers are hesitant to adopt this style of teaching. But widening your teaching skills to include pop music, alongside more traditional styles of music, will have so many benefits for your students. This 8-module course is designed to give you the tools and confidence to tackle pop piano teaching head on.
