… grab a piece of music - any piece of music - and sit down and play it!
Imagine if you could play music with friends on the spot!
Imagine if you didn’t have to spend hours figuring out the notes!
Imagine how many more pieces you could learn!
That's because sight-reading IS hard. Especially at the piano. It's overwhelming, and it takes so much time.
As piano players, we have to:
The list goes on!
You’re probably frustrated and wondering: "Will it ever get easier!?"
The reason you're struggling isn't that you don't have what it takes.
You're struggling because you're trying to piece together free online tutorials and bits of information from forums and blogs.
And you're trying to do it all yourself.
It's time to take a new and customised step-by-step approach.
The Sight-Reading Club gives you a growing library of step-by-step training and resources so you can play pieces you love from sheet music!
And more!
You’ll get your questions answered each month by hopping on a live Q&A call with me and fellow members. You'll also get instant access to all past live Q&A calls.
Every few months, I bring guest speakers from the piano industry for live or recorded interviews or workshops. You'll also get instant access to all past interviews and workshops.
Every couple of months, we'll dive into a specific music theme like Romantic Music, Classical Music or topics of your choice. We'll explore some history, fun facts and listen to recordings
Every couple of months, you'll get to take part in a challenge to improve a certain area of sight-reading, such as not looking down, reading ahead, playing hands together, and more.
You'll get access to a growing library of drills, exercises and sight-reading excerpts so you never have to waste time looking for music yourself. You can just log in and resume from where you left off.
And you know what the best part is? You can always request MORE excerpts.
Just fill in a form with the key signatures and the time signatures you want, and voilà! The excerpts you requested will appear within a few days inside the Club! Like ordering a pizza with your favourite toppings! Cool, right?
Finding the right resources for sight-reading can be tough. That's why I’ve created a Roadmap. A path for you to follow.
It'll help you sight-read individual notes, intervals, triads, and so on all the way up to 4-note chords. It's like a sight-reading book, but better because it will keep evolving over time!
And, unlike a sight-reading book, all of the sight-reading excerpts come with AUDIO - which means you'll know if you hit a wrong note or play the wrong rhythm.
Normally, you can expect to pay anywhere from US$40 to $60 per hour for private piano lessons. This means paying around $200 every month for weekly lessons! Add to that the cost of sheet music and method books, and you can easily spend an extra $30-50 a month!
But there's no guarantee you'll get the results you want despite paying this much.
Why? Two reasons.
One: Your piano teacher probably won't teach sight-reading (very few teachers do, if any).
Two: No matter how hard you try, you won't find a method book that has specific sight-reading exercises, sight-reading excerpts with audio, warm-up exercises, drills, music theory, sight-reading tips, sight-reading challenges, etc. (I think you get the point.)
The good news is that by joining the Sight-Reading Club, you don't need to invest $200+ or even half that. You don't even need to invest $50 a month! You can join today for just $19 a month!
Every few months, you'll get to play in front of your peers without feeling like it's an exam or a formal recital. Play in your pyjamas if you want. We don't mind ;) You'll have something to work towards which will give you a reason to practise!
You'll be part of a safe and friendly community of piano players worldwide. You can cheer each other on and stay motivated. No need to feel lonely or discouraged anymore.
As a member of the Sight-Reading Club, you'll get special discounts on sight-reading resources such as apps and software.
You'll get a Sight-Reading Log to keep track of the pieces you've sight-read and a Sight-Reading Progress Tracker so you can see how much progress you've made over time. It'll give you a big boost in motivation!

Here are answers to some of the questions you may have...
Once you join, you'll get instant access to all the content inside the Sight-Reading Club, including all the content of the Roadmap, past live Q&A calls and past guest interviews. You won't have to wait to unlock the content. It’s all there for you.
Yes, you can but not all of it. You can print out the drills, exercises and sight-reading excerpts and use them offline, except for the videos.
Of course. I don’t want you to be locked in a contract. You can easily cancel at any time with a few mouse clicks, and you'll continue to have access to the resources and the community until the end of your billing period.
No worries. You'll get access to the replays of all the live sessions.
Certainly. While most of the members are at the start of their journey, the Club includes a Roadmap that is designed to help you at any stage of your journey, from beginner to advanced levels.
And don't forget that as a Club member, you get to take part in concerts and challenges which are designed to boost your skills.
The content inside the Sight-Reading Club is self-paced, so take as much time as you need to go through the content.
Just spend 5 to 10 minutes a day doing the drills, exercises, and sight-reading excerpts and you'll start seeing progress. I promise you.
No, the community is not on Facebook. It's hosted on the same platform as the site, on Mighty Networks. The community feed looks a bit like Facebook - you can write comments, share images and videos, and chat - but without distractions or annoying ads.
If you know some of the basics of how to read music and how to play a few basic pieces, then yes, the Club is for you.
But if you have zero knowledge of music and don’t know your way around the piano, I suggest you come back to the Club in a few months when you’ve had some lessons and you've started learning to read music.
Of course. The platform is easy to use and intuitive. And to make sure you know your way around, you'll get access to a walk-through video showing you where everything is and how to use the platform. And if you’re still stuck on how to use the website, you can book a private 1:1 call with me.
Yes, you could... but the problem is that there is SO much piano music out there! What music should you use, and in what order? And if you're like most people, you might make the mistake of using music that is too difficult for you to sight-read. This just leads to frustration. The last thing you want is to get frustrated and give up!
By following the Roadmap inside the Sight-Reading Club, you'll know exactly what to focus on and in what order.
Email us at support@sightreadingclub.com to get all your remaining questions answered.
I know how frustrating it can be to have music in front of you and not be able to play it. Over the past 15 years, I've seen the struggles my students go through, and I've helped them overcome these difficulties so they can learn new pieces without my help.
I love sight-reading! The wonderful state you get into when sight-reading is a state I wish all of you to experience. This is why I've created the Sight-Reading Club: to help you improve your sight-reading so you can play whatever music is in front of you and experience this amazing state for yourself!
