The Peery Method

What students are saying about Peery Piano:

"I think the Peery Piano website is wonderful. When Jared is practicing, I bring him to listen to the excellent video explanations and demonstrations, and we talk about how the way he is practicing differs from how... Christie is playing, and then when he goes back to practice he has clear objectives and goals for improvement. I think it's truly a tremendous resource."

-Phil S

"I am absolutely in love with the program! I like the charts best of all, as they help me know exactly what to do each day to help Zachary practice. "

-Holly

"I have been very happy with the training my children are receiving. They are receiving a strong, proper foundation in both piano and general music principles. What makes it a unique experience is that coupled to that foundation, they are also having opportunities to enjoy sharing their music with their peers."

-Sarah

"Peery Piano's focus on building their students' essential "good piano habits" is very effective and we've seen tremendous progress in our daughter's development in a short period of time. Best of all, she loves the fun environment they provide. It's been a great experience for her!"

-Angie

The Peery Method descends from the teaching practices of Liszt and Beethoven and was formalized into an approachable step by step program by Christie Peery Skousen specifically for kids. This method of learning focuses on the successful completion of songs and exercises at specific speeds during practice. This emphasis deviates from most instruction of piano teachers by showing students "how" to play, rather than "what" to play. Early satisfaction and progress gives incentive to young players.


The Peery Method breaks down into 5 different levels:
Peery Essential Habits 1, 2 and 3
Peery Players Level
Peery Advanced Audition Level

Each lesson is designed so that the child learns important skills that create the foundation for playing well in all styles of music, regardless of the goal for learning piano. Within each level students learn and practice fingerings, expression, rhythm and notes, muscular exercises as well as practical (using scales and arpeggios). The songs are simple and always a fun learning experience for kids of all ages. If inclined, Peery Piano students can progress to the subsequent level after "Peery certifying" their progress by sending Christie a video of the prescribed assignment for Peery Certification designed for the most ambitious of young students.

Through Peery Piano Online, students are able to access the entire Peery Method Curriculum 24 hours a day and have unfettered access to the acclaimed Peabody Conservatory graduate and Master Piano Teacher, Christie Peery-Skousen.
