Teaching Adult Group Classes
Designing and leading engaging piano classes for adult beginners
Taught by Marcy Davis and Eliana Corredor
Teaching adults requires a different approach.
Different pacing.
Different expectations.
And a more flexible, human-centered mindset.
This two-session course combines practical pedagogy with real classroom insight so you can confidently design, market, and lead adult group piano classes.
In this course, you’ll learn how to:
✔ Understand the unique needs and motivations of adult learners
✔ Structure group classes that balance progress, confidence, and enjoyment
✔ Market and communicate effectively with adult students
✔ Build realistic retention and long-term engagement
✔ Design a Recreational Music-Making (RMM) group experience
Inside the course:
Session 1: Teaching Piano to Adults — with Marcy Davis
Learn what makes adult learners different and how to teach in a way that supports enjoyment, sustainability, and long-term success.
Session 2: Real Classroom Demonstration — with Eliana Corredor
Watch real excerpts from adult group classes, with honest reflection on what worked, what didn’t, and how to refine your approach.
Included:
✔ Practical teaching strategies and real-world examples
✔ A clear starting point for launching adult group classes
✅ Outcome: Walk away with the clarity, confidence, and practical tools to launch—or refine—a thriving adult group piano program.
