Christopher Singleton Sr - Piano teacher in Riverside

My name is Christopher Singleton Sr. and I have over 3 years of experience of directly making the piano more accessible to students. Indirectly, I've been making it more accessible through my children's book, "Chris & Frankie: Intro To Our Ebony & Ivory Keys"! My approach focuses on ear training, improv, chord theory and more! I can work with any beginner despite their age! If you join me on your piano journey, I can promise you, you'll leave every lesson amazed at your progress!!! Currently I visit schools doing workshops for Pre-K-5th grade students. My unique approach allows learners to become more familiar with piano geography as well as the lines and spaces of the treble and bass clef. Piano Day is the 88th day of the year, and I did a Pop Up workshop on that day this year! Recently one of the children that I met on that day saw me at her school. She let me know that she remembered the difference between my piano characters Chris & Frankie. That means that she can find C as well as F on the piano very quickly.
