Everything a practice piece should come with.
A new piece for one student, checked for their level, with sheet music, a duet part for you, play-along at three speeds and practice feedback at home.
No card needed. 3 free packs every month.
Written for one student
- Their level. Five levels, from the first year of lessons to intermediate, written to be comparable to Levels 1 to 5 of common exam syllabi.
- The skill they are working on. Steps and skips, scales, eighth notes, dotted rhythms, sixteenth notes, 6/8 time, and left-hand intervals for piano.
- Your words. Add a mood or a note, like "spooky, for Halloween" or "keep it in the middle of the keyboard".
- Original every time. Each piece is new music, written for this student. Print it and copy it for your students as often as you like.
- 1 to 4 pieces a pack. Enough for a week of practice, or a short set for a recital. Up to 2 a pack on the free plan.
Checked before you see it
- Every note checked for the level. Range, key, rhythm, leaps and hand position are checked against the level and the skill. Anything that fails is rewritten before you see it.
- Every recording listened to. Before a play-along reaches you, it is listened to note by note and compared with the score. If a note sounds wrong, it is fixed first.
- A teacher's eye on the music. Each piece is reviewed for shape, phrasing and how it sits under the hands, and improved when it falls short.
- See the checks yourself. Every piece shows what was checked, so you know why it suits this student.
Ready for the lesson
- Printable sheet music. Clean scores that print on letter or A4.
- Tab for guitar, bass and ukulele. Notation and tablature together.
- Real drum notation. Drum kit pieces on a proper percussion staff, hands and feet, with sticking shown in the fills.
- A duet part for you. A teacher piano part to play in the lesson. For clarinet, trumpet, sax and horn you get the student part plus a concert-pitch score. Drummers get a bass backing track instead.
- Change it in plain words. "Make the ending easier" or "fewer jumps". Or ask for a fresh piece with the same settings.
- Class sets for band and orchestra. One tune with a part for every instrument in the group, each in its own key and range, written inside the notes the whole class can play.
- Solfège for singers. Voice pieces for soprano, alto, tenor and bass show do-re-mi under every note.
Practice between lessons
- Play-along at three speeds. 60%, 80% and full speed, with a one-bar count-in, recorded with real instrument sounds. Save the MP3s to practise offline.
- Feedback through the microphone. Students play along on any acoustic instrument or a drum kit. The page shows the right notes (or hits), the missed ones, rushing or dragging, and which bars to practise. Nothing is recorded.
- Stars, streaks and badges. One star at each speed with 85% of the notes right, a weekly streak that a quiet day never breaks, and badges for real milestones like a whole pack at full speed.
- Sight-reading mode. The music stays hidden until you start. Ten seconds to look, a count-in, then play it straight through while the page listens.
- Practice reminders. Students pick their practice days and a time, and a weekly reminder goes into their phone's calendar.
- One practice link per student. All their pieces, stars and streak in one place. It works on any phone, tablet or computer, with no account or app.
Your studio in one place
- A student list. Instrument, level and what each student is working on, kept for you.
- Next piece, one click. The next piece adapts to how the last one went: easier after a hard week, steadier rhythm after rushing.
- See how practice went. Practice scores come back to you before the next lesson, and a studio summary shows pieces, practice and stars at a glance.
- Add a whole class at once. Paste the first names, pick the instrument and level, done.
- Room for your school. The Studio plan covers you and 4 more teachers, and you can add more for US$39 each.
- A free library. A growing library of checked pieces by instrument, skill and level, free to print.
- Your data is yours. Stored in Canada where available, first names only. Download everything any time, and if we ever close you get 90 days' notice.
