I am in the process of purchasing the Piano Wizard for a small private school.     I agree with waterdreamer....

   Let me start off by saying that anytime something NEW and not seen before can be a challenge in it self.  People do NOT like different or change,  they like the NORM...   

 Look at how many people put down parents who are teaching their children to read, math, encyclopedic knowledge and such.   I am sure MANY of you here have dealt with the NEGATIVE remarks at one time or another...

I have spent THOUSANDS of dollars on music lessons over the past 13 years and you know what there are those who spend 500.00 on a video game such as ps3 So purchasing Piano Wizard is not a WASTE in my opinion.... 

Does the piano wizard work ??   I do not have the answer as I have yet to use it...   However I know many parents who use this website and the methods here WORK...   Does it work for everyone ( i do not know)   but I know it worked for us

I am going to  follow through and get this for our school even with all the NEGATIVE comments coming out of it on this site.    Worse thing that can happen is that the children play an educational game...  NOT so bad is it

the movement you can start at any age and multiplication requires that a child can count to 144

The movement course and step by step activites are in the training manual ebook

Hope this helps...

I bought the ebook training manual, ebook multiplication teachers guide ,  and ebook multiplication work book  all for under 50.00  and have used it and love it..   The mats do not have to be bought for it to work    

Here is a site I use to find information for my students     http://www.kidskonnect.com/

Well done    So cute..........................

Problem????  Well we are from Boston and if you have ever heard anyone speak from this city they do NOT pronounce R's....   They say ca  for car,  etc.. 

When we moved to Florida everyone thought my child had speech problems     She did overcome this and now pronounces her R's .   

Hi everyone..  It has been a while from the last time I have posted and been online.  (lots going on in my life      Anyhow this site is WORTH checking out.  I just purchased the Math and movement training guide and it is worth every penny...   Also purchased the multiplication ebook and workbook...

Good question.  I wish I could have an answer for you.  In my child's school this never comes up much as they call them parents/or caretakers.  I feel sad that you have to deal with this   Hope someone else has a better answer for you
