In depth explanations about how music is made by simply listening and reproducing what you hear is very helpful. Not necessarily easy to do but is doable.

Wonderful curriculum. Learning lots about music, and if you put the required time in to practice you can definitely become a great musician. It can be overwhelming if you have no prior musical training, but they still work with everyone and have resources to help you along. Each coach is very patient.

My experience was excellent, in that i have learnt all lot to improve my playing and also, to understand what i do on the piano.

I love the voicings breaking each chord down step by step. Also showing multiple options to play a song...If i were to compare it to something, I would say that its very similar to learning a new language and learning new vocabulary.

I cameback realizing if I am going make a serious commitment on learning while investing my own time, there needs to be structure and guidance with an end in mind. This is where GMTC comes into play and I believe will deliver.
