Hello, I'm a pianist. I've posted a few videos of myself playing piano, as well as a few other various things including a set of lessons. I'll be adding more video's as I learn new songs and uploading one lesson every week or so for those of you who want to learn to play piano. Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoy everything. Good Luck practicing!


My philosophy for teaching here is:
Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day,

Teach a man HOW to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.

I'm focused on teaching you how to play for yourself. Not teach you to copy what I've learn. You're not a parrot so why should people treat you like one?

In saying that, I don't do requests for how to play this song or that song, but if you want to know something about music/piano, or how something works PLEASE let me know!

Please though, before you ask any questions, look though my videos first, and if I haven't covered something you want to know about then ask away! ^_^ thanks! Enjoy!!!
About Me:
 
I like to have fun, things should be simple not complicated, life is already complicated enough!

I've been taking piano lessons for over 17 years, I started when I was 5 years old. I love to teach and to talk, I'm definitely a people person.

I live in Northern British Columbia, and I LOVE hockey and ice skating, I used to coach hockey for kids aged 5-12, and I taught many skating lessons around the city, which actually got me started in teaching, then I just took my knowledge of the piano and POOF! I became a piano teacher and I haven't looked back since!

I want to thank every single one of my subscribers for their support and I genuinely hope that each one of you has learned something useful!

Thank you everyone!!! ^_^ I look forward to serving you long into the future!

Yours Truly,

Andrew Furmanczyk's Youtube Music Academy, How to Play Piano  
I'm just a regular guy, who enjoys helping people out. I've been playing piano and studying music since I was 5 years old, and I am currently a Piano Teacher in real life, I have about 30 students in my studio. I wanted to make this series to help people who want to learn piano, but can't afford or don't have access to a teacher. I'm a pretty easy going guy, so hopefully you'll be entertained!

Happy Practising!

I want to buy a piano, but they're so expensive. I wanna become an expert like you!
I know how to play piano, but I don't have a piano. I really want a piano. If you know any place where I can buy a piano that isn't so expensive or at least I can bargain, let me know ok?
Thank you so very much!!!

Well, I just subscribed to you. And even though I already know how to play the piano by ear, there is still SOOOO much I want to learn. So I have decided to follow all your lessons, and teach myself how to fish! Lol... Thank you so much for these lessons. Music is such a huge part of my life, and I can't wait to get started.

Yeah :) Well.. Its not why I haven't made a new video though.. I have a injury in my legs which is Very Painful, and Im in the process of getting something done with it, specialist etc.. So to sit at the piano can be very hard. Thats why I have to abort the Etude Practice... :( That was very hard to have to do cause I was getting very good at it... But I hope to get better once they know what the problem is, that is preventing me from waling more than abou 15min each day! And then Ill be sure to post lots of videos again :)
