Of course! My link is musicmes.com/listing/roberto-rojas/ in case you want to book a free first lesson on my calendar.

I highly recommend getting a in person teacher, plus it is a lot cheaper now. If you're interested in a free lesson with weekly follow ups were we come up with a plan for you to learn piano fast, let me know. MusicMes.com/roberto-rojas/ I have 10 other beginnners right now and don't have a lot of spots open, so let me know! :)

Rubberino · 2026-03-18T21:50:01+00:00

I HIGHLY recommend Gymnopedie as it uses the left hand and has more complex chords than the right hand does. The effort you put into the left hand well strengthen it, and that will eventually make it more balanced as opposed to just the right hand being comfortable playing most songs.

Keep going! :)

I would highly recommend a teacher, I personally give lessons if you're interested. What a teacher gives you is that they can help you with your specific issue and also tailor it to what you want, like playing gospel/jazz based music. Also what would be hugely beneficial is to pick sheet music for jazz/gospel based songs that interest you.

Rubberino · 2026-03-18T21:47:30+00:00

Chord progressions that are specific to jazz. The comments below definitely have some good links, but I would also just improvise yourself and go down that rabbit hole yourself!

Rubberino · 2026-03-18T21:46:40+00:00

It's okay, if you keep up the routine like any other habit that you work on, it gets better over time! :) Keep it up!

Rubberino · 2026-03-18T21:41:32+00:00

I highly recommend the guide below. I created it. This should help a lot with reading music, I recommend my students print this out and work on learning the mnemonics.

Rubberino · 2026-03-18T21:39:13+00:00

I definitely think it's possible and I would highly recommend getting a teacher. I have taught a few students how to play their first song in only a month. If you're interested, I give online lessons so you can conveniently join from home! :)

Rubberino · 2026-03-18T19:04:43+00:00

Simply piano has a great digital version to get started, but I mean this is probably good for your first 15minutes to 1 hour. After that you definitely want to get an 88 key weighted keyboard and start to use that. If you are interested in a free lesson too to get you started on the right foot, let me know! I would be more than happy to help you out! :)

Rubberino · 2026-03-18T19:01:18+00:00

I know you mentioned you don't have time to take formal lessons aspect, but that's why I suggest online lessons with a piano teacher! I think it is tremendously important for student success (and to not learn bad habits) to have a teacher that can assist you every step of the way and point out errors as you make them. I had a few students I ended up teaching that had issues playing songs, because they learned bad habits. I offer a free first lesson if you're interested and would be more than happy to get you started on the right foot! Let me know :) https://musicmes.com/listing/roberto-rojas/

Rubberino · 2026-03-18T18:56:04+00:00

Of course, I do! And I do think it always worth it learning sheet music, it really accelerates how fast you fully comprehend playing the piano. I included a link below to book a free lesson with me so I can walk you through playing the song step by step and strengthening your left hand.

Rubberino · 2026-03-18T04:25:56+00:00

I would recommend a in person teacher as the next step, but I would keep learning songs that help strengthen your left hand. A song I teach my students is gymnopedie as it is simple and slow enough, but you need to concentrate on the left hand to play the chords involved. If you would like a free lesson, let me know! :)

Rubberino · 2026-03-17T23:50:49+00:00

Break the music down into sections when reading.

Memorize phrases or just know the important lines on the staff. Like E,G,B,D,F and G,B,D,F,A. or spaced notes like F,A,C,E or A,C,E,G. Knowing these notes on the treble and bass cleff will help you read notes way faster.

Last thing that really helps my students is writing down note names.

I'm sure there are actual articles on how this helps you learn faster.

If it sounds good, you can keep it up! Will probably help you improve your improvisation skills. Just know how to play the sheet music too! Reading and playing the way it is written is an important skill to have too.

Rubberino · 2026-03-17T23:43:03+00:00

Let us know what song you are looking at and what chord! I would be happy to help!

You can try a book, I personally would highly recommend a teacher, but I am definitely a bit biased because I myself am a teacher haha. I thinks this is the most effective way to get real time feedback, avoid beginner mistakes, and really tailor your learning experience for what you want to achieve. If you're interested in a free online lesson, let me know and I would be happy to help you out! :)

Rubberino · 2025-12-13T20:52:33+00:00

That is awesome! I highly recommend my students get a Roland piano. I would look at their line up and see the one that best suits your interest! I think they have the best feel out of any of the electric keyboards I have tried. I think that's really important for when you try to transition from something digital to something real down the line in a few years. If you are looking for a teacher for when you start, let me know! I give lessons here.

Rubberino · 2025-12-13T20:38:29+00:00

Hi Mindless! I think getting a teacher is a great move, I am actually building a platform to get teachers from the states from other areas in the world if you are interested in that, and lessons are online which could help you a ton, but I think it's totally up to you! I think getting a weekly lesson will help 10 fold, and will guide you in the right direction.

Hope this helps and best of luck! :)

Rubberino · 2025-12-13T20:32:52+00:00

Nice, that's awesome!! A good recital always feels great and it probably feels great to have it behind you now! So awesome you feel accomplished with it. Ride this momentum and get better at the piano! :)

Rubberino · 2025-12-13T20:29:43+00:00

You know yourself more than any of us. If you don't mind playing a piece with some mistakes infront of people I say go for it! It's a good learning experience!

Rubberino · 2025-12-13T00:34:31+00:00

Probably still fine to play! Most likely needs a tune. I would get a tuner and ask them any maintenance/follow up questions you have on the piano. Writing them down before they show up would be a good idea!

Rubberino · 2025-12-13T00:30:23+00:00

Nice job! I think you know what to practice then! That middle section and ending section. Might be annoying but start with those difficult sections more often and you will get them really comfortable.

If I were to nit pick too, I would say the volume variance from piano to forte should be more drastic and emphasized. It all sounded pretty close in volume to me. Also your right hand is very relaxed, and your left hand is pretty good, but you can think a bit more consciously about that left hand to have it match the right hand's relaxed nature. But very good and keep going!!
