In addition to the students' private lesson time, they also spend 15 minutes on the computer at each lesson. The software programs used are Music Ace and The Pianist.

Music Ace is an interactive program that teaches music theory through a series of fun lessons and games. The student sits at the computer and uses headphones during this time.

The Pianist is an amazing program to introduce the student to the major composers and their music. Everyone from Bach to Debussy is included. Students can click on a composer and listen to some of their music while reading all about that composer's life.
