MY STUDENT'S AND PIANO TEACHER'S PERSONAL TESTIMONIES ABOUT THE BON'S-WAY FASTRAK PIANO SYSTEM
I started beginner's piano in 1997, with private lessons. Then my teacher moved away, but I am continuing my piano lessons with the same teacher, by phone, and I am doing great -- and get to keep my teacher! I now play arrangements for piano and songs like "Ballade Pour Adeline" --- "Annie's Song" --- "Prelude C" and "A Time For Us," all the songs are the original scores, all in my first year of piano lessons. I recommend this outstanding program for learning piano --- "Fastrak" for sure! IL Teenage student.
The "Fastrak" Piano Course is: (1.) Simple and easy to understand; (2.) Thorough knowledge of the keyboard; (3.) Given in "one-step-at-a-time" method; (4.) the method teaches you the "show-and-tell" method that is very effective; (5.) the Musicianship Patterns are a joy to study and learn; (6.) The method really works; (7.) I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in learning the piano FAST; (8.) After six months, I can play music in all keys. NV. Adult Student
I feel this course moves you at a rapid pace in learning key technique. It is an interesting format and makes the practice fun, as I am a senior that has tried to teach herself, I find the method has really helped me to understand and move forward, not only learning basics of the piano, but playing songs and having fun.

We started our son at the age of nine years, and he enjoyed the way you can play, even in the first month of earning the piano, using all 88-keys. Our son went to advanced levels within the first six months, like studying original arrangement of the "Rhapsody In Blue" by Gershwin. As parents, we highly recommend this wonderful way of learning the piano, without having to study years and years. Our son plans to be a performer of piano someday, and he has a head-start, because of this program in piano [I have a audio of this on YouTube] Daniel, CA
As a Certified Bon's-Way Piano Teacher, my students love this course, because it is "FASTRAK" and a complete educational course for piano. Excellent program and it really works. This piano course should be offered in all Universities! SD, Student Teacher
I asked my Professor, "Where did you get this wonderful program, showing all the beauties in music?" He replied, "My family is from Europe and this piano course was handed down through our family for many generations (unpublished work), back to the great masters. CA

COMMENT BY ONE OF MY SKYPE STUDENTS:
I am glad to recommend you as a good piano teacher, who can give lessons over the phone. I was skeptical at first, but I am very satisfied with how it has gone for me the past several months. I have had many ask me how it works as well. I feel you can detect easily if I am doing anything wrong and correct me. You even seem to notice if my fingering is wrong. I do thank you for your patience with me and for being willing to take me on as a student. I
have enjoyed having you for a teacher and would highly recommend you to any that would be interested in trying it. I think they would find, as I have, that it can be done by phone and done very well. -- Joyce Sanger -- SD
