Note Teacher Kids vs Nate The Note

This is a note and song teaching app I made to help kids learn music. It has cute graphics and fun play modes, while remaining true to actual musical education. Video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfeYYW0Mqw8&feature=youtu.be Feedback from a music teacher: "It teaches the visual association of staff notes-to-keyboard keys in a way that is sympathetic to children's motivation and need for reward. The built in teacher and fade-in answer are great for this kind of bland memory-work, as kids absorb and memorize the notes, they rely less and less on the help. With this app I can get kids whose parents don't read music or play a musical instrument to learn this vital reading skill in a much shorter time scale. It also encourages parents or other siblings to learn to read." Also check out the review at theiphonemom.com!

Nate the Note is an app intended to teach the basics of music for kids and adults alike. Designed by a Juilliard-trained musician with over 25 years of teaching piano to all ages and levels, the material is presented in small components in a strategic order to maximize learning and retention. Most of the app lessons teach music skills useful for all instruments. In later levels, there will also be lessons specifically for piano playing. In Level 1, you’ll learn to read the note names for the main notes in treble clef and bass clef. Future levels will cover additional note reading skills, rhythm, music terminology, and more.
