Whether you're a seasoned homeschooler or just beginning your music education journey, this episode brings valuable insight on how a simple keyboard can transform your approach to teaching music.

Gena explains how the visual and tactile layout of the piano keyboard makes music theory concepts—like notes, scales, chords, intervals, sharps, and flats—much more accessible and engaging.
