Meet the Creator
Hey, have we met yet? I'm Nicola Cantan, a piano teacher in Ireland and the creator of Vibrant Music Teaching.
I've been teaching piano for over 15 years but it was about 7 years ago that everything started to change for me. Before that, I had been a pretty average teacher. I was ok, I was pleasant, but I wouldn't have knocked anyone's socks off.
Then I discovered piano teaching blogs. I found out about using improvisation, composing and music teaching games and I realised that I could bring my design degree (yes, fashion design actually, see the photo below for evidence!) and creative brain into my piano teaching and provide my students with a unique lesson experience.
Since then I've become addicted to sharing my discovery and ideas with other music teachers through my blog Colourful Keys, books like The Piano Practice Physician's Handbook and Rhythm in 5 and speaking at events online and in-person around the world.
I created Vibrant Music Teaching in 2017 because I could see how many teachers wanted to teach more creatively and use games more effectively, but they didn't have the support or tools they needed to do it. It began as a little bee of an idea buzzing around my head and it's now a thriving community where all my favourite teachers in the world hang out and get inspired.
I hope you'll join us and get in on the fun.

Elena
Teacher in Texas, USA
“If you teach on the regular basis, this is a membership you cannot be without.
Whenever you hit the wall and don't know how to address a problem of a student during their lessons, there are answers to that problem right here. You can see a lesson video, or print a game to help your student understand things better.
And the webinars are great to keep learning about teaching, and not only teaching, but teaching well, so your students want to come back."

Yes. Whenever there is a difference in terminology, I always make two versions.
No problem! We have created a separate solfege version of the pdf for fixed do solfege teachers on games where this is necessary.
The pdfs are provided on A4 sized paper, however, they are all designed to work well on letter paper if you just tick the “fit to page” option when printing.
Many of the graphics are not very "kiddy" so you can use them for any age. Most teachers find them most useful for kids under 13, but many also use games with their adult students with great success!
Absolutely. Teaching preschoolers is one of my specialities. In fact, we have a course that will walk you through a whole year of lessons with a new preschool piano student.
The range is truly all the way from newbie preschoolers (think key names and finger numbers), up to late intermediate concepts like interval qualities, chord inversions and Roman numeral analysis.
