Play Any Song on Piano Using Only Chords – Modern Lessons
course price icon
Àpd 43.57 $ /h
arrow icon
Playing piano doesn’t have to start with complicated sheet music. In this course, you’ll learn how to play the piano using chords as your foundation, so you can quickly understand how songs are built and start playing music you love from the very beginning.

This is a practical, modern approach designed for students who want real results. Instead of memorizing notes, you’ll learn the chord concepts and patterns that apply to almost any song.

You will learn:
How chords work across the entire keyboard
The most common chord progressions used in countless songs
Left-hand and right-hand accompaniment patterns
How to recognize chords by ear and play without sheet music
Smooth transitions between chords and song sections
How to add rhythm, flow, and expression to your playing

Présentation
Hi!

My name is Nathaniel, and I’m a passionate pianist based in Berlin. I love helping people discover that playing the piano is not as hard as it seems, it’s about learning the right way from the beginning.

I’ve been playing piano for years, and music is a big part of my life. I especially enjoy teaching students how to play the songs they love, not just exercises from a book.

As a teacher, I’m patient, encouraging, and very practical. I focus on helping students understand chords, patterns, and rhythm so they can start playing real music quickly. My lessons are relaxed, motivating, and adapted to each student’s level and goals.

I teach a chord-based approach that works for many styles of music including pop songs, simple melodies, and songs students personally enjoy. You don’t need to read complicated sheet music to start playing confidently.
Education
Associate’s Degree in Business (2026)
High School Diploma

During my studies, I developed strong communication, organization, and teaching skills that I now apply in my piano lessons. My business education also helps me structure lessons clearly and professionally for students of all ages.
Expérience / Qualifications

Hello everyone,

I give piano lessons in Lichtenberg, but can also move me.

Coming from classical school, I have the heart to transmit a good technique, but I often complete with solid notions of music theory. Basically my teaching aims to make you autonomous when you approach a new work.

Reading notes, deciphering, position of the body, working ranges - arpeggios - trills / work on the typical exercises of the Cortot school. Musical theory, how to build scales, alterations etc etc etc ......
We can tackle together the classical repertoire, the blues, some jazz, pop music ...

Beginners and motivated children welcome.

Do not be afraid to jump in!

Liebe Musikfreunde,
ich unterrichte mit viel ausprobieren und Freude am Klavierspielen.
Egal welche Motivation- ob Noten lernen, ein spezifisches Stück zu spielen oder Lieder begleiten, ich werde praxisnah arbeiten und gebe Hausaufgaben, damit du auch unabhängig von mir lernst Klavier zu spielen.
Ich unterrichte seit vierzehn Jahren, studierte Musikpädagogik, Klavier und Cembalo und durch viele LehrerInnen und SchülerInnen benutze ich viele lustige Wege, um schnell lernen zu können. Dieses Jahr werde ich mich auf Erwachsene und Jugendliche fokussieren.
Ich freue mich auf euch. Wenn du 15 Minuten mit dem Fahrrad von mir wohnst, komme ich auch zu dir nach Hause, sonst unterrichte ich in der Universität der Künste oder bei mir zu Hause.
Lieben Gruß, Simone

Dear Pianoteacher searchers !
If I should describe my piano lessons I would say that they are very playful! The talking and theory is secondary, most important is to play and then see how to listen and adapt from there. My students have fun, they enjoy our lessons, otherwise they don't practise and make progress :)
It is important that our lesson is making you more independant and secure to play and understand music on your own! I have teaching experiences since fourteen years, I studied music education, piano, harpsichord which I will use for your understanding. This year I will only focus on teaching people over 12 years old. If you live 15minutes by bike from me, there is the possibility to come to your home. Otherwise I will be teaching in Universität der Künste or at my home.
I wish you all the best in finding the right teacher. Hope to hear you soon !
Best wish, Simone

👂 My motto for teaching music: Learn with your ear, before understanding it with your brain.

Music can be explained entirely from a theoretical point of view 🤯. But I'm convinced that the best approach is to feel and sing the music 🎤💖, before understanding and interpreting it theoretically.

I teach music theory intuitively 💫. More than just a way of reading sheet music, I can show you how to deconstruct a piece of music in any genre, how to interpret chords, and how to improvise simply and effectively.
