Why I Wrote This Piano Method:
3-Year-Olds and the Developing Brain
Noreen’s wrote Musical Journeys when the three-year-old younger siblings of her students wanted to start piano lessons. Unable to find any teaching material that could hold the attention of a three-year-old, Noreen created her own method book. Her expertise and success in teaching children piano from age 3 filled an unexpected niche and started her Two-Year Waitlist, the title of Noreen's book for entrepreneurial piano teachers.
