Learn All 12 Major Scales Piano Tutorial for Adult Beginners

[@alexarcadia7289]

I’m a beginner of 3 months. This is the best tutorial I’ve seen on learning and remembering and fingering major scales❤️ Thank you!

[@suzy7417]

I’m an adult beginner and I have been playing piano for 6 months. This lesson gave me a complete understanding of scales for the first time. I feel like I finally have deciphered the hidden code I was struggling with. I’m so excited. Thank you so much Maria. 😊

[@adgurl01]

Same!

[@kaolao8465]

I think you are the best teacher because you didn't talking too much and you teach directly to the chords and scale so easy to understand. Thanks you I love that

[@warzshadow9701]

Thank you! You showed why triads help to find the next major. No one else has showed it like this.

[@OnlinePianoCoach]

I am happy it was useful! :)

[@PC-ou8oc]

This is the best lesson on scales that I have ever seen. Thank you Maria for your excellent communication skills and warm teaching tones.

[@levorasandor2943]

Dear Teacher! I'm so glad I found you! I have never come across a video that is so down-to-earth, which is a huge help even for beginners. He speaks English very well, which is also a huge help for me. Thank you very much. I wish you good health for your further work!

Best video to teach Major scales theory and playing

[@OnlinePianoCoach]

Thank you! I'm really happy it's helpful!

[@WowzaGuy]

This was a brilliant lesson, especially with the colored stickers. I learned more in 10 minutes than I did with hours of reading. The scales and keys suddenly clicked for me in a way that it didn’t before. I feel like I’m off to the races now!

[@OnlinePianoCoach]

I'm very happy to hear that! :)

[@michaellane1316]

Seeing is believing for sure.

[@yobabybubba]

Im 57 and playing piano almost 1 year. I finally (yesterday) decided to learn the maj. scales. I gatta tell you, the WWH-WWWH that you tought in this lesson is mind blowing and will not only help with learning the major scales, but with future playing in many areas. Thank you soooooooo from N.Y.

[@kmh997]

oOoOO HHH! Thank you for this video! I dread the black keys in scales, I can never remember! But now I understand the scales follow a pattern, and I learned this from you! I have watched a lot of videos (looking for videos that aren't annoying), and you are THE ONLY ONE to mention that scales follow a pattern! It's so helpful to know that! The black keys in scales are no longer a mystery - thank you!

[@OnlinePianoCoach]

You’re most welcome! 🤩

[@ricardoneves5094]

where have you been al is time!? just started to learn the piano (kind of serisouly now) from guitar and this is probably the best video on scales for beginners out there!

[@OnlinePianoCoach]

Thank you for your kind words! I am really happy it was helpful! :)

[@Mrfailstandstil]

Thank you very much for this lesson, I'm 32 and I'm playing piano for a month now and just started learning scales today! It's very difficult to play a C scale with both hands simultaneously but I will get there I'm sure!

[@OnlinePianoCoach]

I'm happy you liked it! Absolutely, practice makes progress! I have written some tips here that might help you. Scroll down to the exercises: www.onlinepianocoach.com/c-major-scale.html

[@angelawiththegoods]

I’m a beginner at piano and I’ve been watching videos and taking lesson. Only 4 lessons in and this video helped a lot with understanding scales and triads.

[@murphy903]

Good lesson for learning scales and theory as you'll see in all music theory books. Learning chunks of 3 whole notes separated by a half step followed by 4 whole notes is a hack to learning the theory faster.

[@SierraPrecursora]

An afternoon well spent, pausing, replaying, analyzing, and making notes! Thank you for my excellent introduction to chords! I've got a lot of practicing ahead of me, and this has given me an excellent start! Thank you! 😊

[@OnlinePianoCoach]

I am really pleased to hear that! Happy practicing!😁

[@OnlinePianoCoach]

[@OnlinePianoCoach]

Hello, all scale practicers! Someone asked: "When doing all 12 major scales in chromatic order, E Major and F Major both end on the thumb. How do you go from E major to F major fingering wise so you keep the speed... without doubling the thumb which makes it sound choppy?" I thought that was a very relevant question, (and a fun right-hand exercise challenge for all scale practicers to do! :) So here's my answer: When playing the last descending octave (if you play many octaves) with the right hand in E major, you would normally play the last 4 notes (A G# F# E) with fingers 1-3-2-1. Change this to 1-4-3-2 and then slide under with your 1st finger on F and continue! :) The same "problem" occurs from B major to C major, so use the same "trick" as above! Happy Practicing! :)

[@sopranogirl13]

My piano teacher has never gone over scales like this, she just assigns a scale from the Alfred book. This was so helpful since it was visual. Thank you so much!

[@OnlinePianoCoach]

I'm happy it was helpful!

[@clairesanabrias2128]

Thank you for explaining in such a clear, concise manner. I liked your use of sticky strips as a clear visual for the flat scale patterns - I hadn't thought about in that way before and it has made things easier to understand. Your approach is really thorough and most importantly for me - allows me to see how scales are linked!

Thank you for your very clear tutorial. I have never placed any importance on WWHWWWH as I grew up with the violin and we do not see the notes. I am 72 and now having a go at piano to keep my brain and hands active. I now can see the importance of it quite literally on a piano keyboard. I akso find it difficult to play a maj scale with two hands...duhh! Peter

Good content madam. I have a question though. How many hours do I need to practice scales everyday in order to play at a speed of 160BPM and how long will it take

[@OnlinePianoCoach]

Hello there! Please don't spend hours practicing scales! 😲A good rule of thumb is about 20% of your practice time could be spent on technical exercises like scales, chords, and arpeggios, and 80% spent on learning repertoire. Fast playing you should build up gradually. Practice with a metronome very slowly, then gradually increase the speed as you feel confident. Nobody can answer how long it will take! It's like the question, "how long is a piece of string?" As long as it takes...😎
