“His music is fun, humorous, soothing & soul searching. He breaks all the rules in regards to pastconventional teaching methods. I use & love his new Note-Reading Method. I would encourage all to tryJon’s method of teaching. You’ll not regret it and your students will love you for it…”

Regarding this revolutionary note-reading method, Piano Pedagogy Master, Barbara Shelton emailed thefollowing:

I have taught piano for many years. I have been frustrated for a long time with the way my studentslearned the notes. I heard you speak about your method and decided to try it. There was nocomparison between those first few students I tried your method on and the students before I tried it…Their sense or understanding of the keyboard is completely different from the previous students. Theydon’t even have to look at the keys. They are set free to play anything, and they progress quickly. Theyenjoy playing piano.
