My rating is not so much about any "recent" experience, but about my impression in general of Hear&Play as a piano music content provider over all these years. Why the given rating? Because I can see that they are musically good & professionally committed.

Great instructions

I am receiving all the training and learning that I need and expected to find to develop my music playing skills. In fact, the program offers much more than I expected!! The VIP Program is spearheaded by a dedicated, committed, and caring Master musician, Dr. Onye, our instructor. He is concerned about each student - he's very personable. The program is expanding and includes well equipped Coaches who expand and reteach concepts from Dr. Onye's main courses, as well as instructing small groups. The learning environment is warm, non-threatening, and yields to musical growth on all levels, from beginner to proficient musicians, including those who have no prior experience, to active, professional musicians. Great program!!! This program also includes instruction and assistance beyond what you initially sign up for. It is very extensive. I have found the perfect fit for my music success.

The team takes their time with classes. I didn’t know that a 12 week cycle had already began and I got confused starting with week 2. I am on track now. Great program. I am looking forward to playing for my small church.
