What an invention!!!!! NOTE MATCH will help you learn how to read your notes on the keyboard in 5 minutes! Yes, it is true.

I began learning piano at age 48(!) and had only limited musical experience. In particular, I didn’t know how to read music. Learning piano and learning to read music is like trying to pick up two foreign languages at once. Notematch was key to my progression. I didn’t need to spend time searching blindly on the keyboard for what note to play. Notematch allowed me to just focus on my  finger skills and fluidity. I learned two evocative pieces from La La Land in my first 6 months. Even though I’m still a beginner, I’m already playing fun, interesting songs. I don’t see how I would have made such progress without Notematch (and of course Tara’s unparalleled guidance as a teacher).

My 8 year old daughter started using it a few months ago and I couldn’t believe what a difference it made. She enjoyed choosing her own silly words and it helped keep her from getting frustrated when she forgot notes.

I have been playing piano for six years but this is my first year playing with Notematch and I love it! It helps me play more advanced pieces and reinforces where the notes are on the piano. I would encourage anybody who sometimes struggles with their notes to buy this product, even if you consider yourself advanced.

I would recommend Notematch to any newbie to piano! I use it all the time with my piano students and encourage them to get one for at home!

As a teacher using manipulatives is a fantastic and well-known strategy for teaching young children.
