This note-reading course isn't just another piano class; it's Jon Schmidt's labor of love, a game-changer he's been perfecting since he was 16. It's made a huge difference for thousands already - teachers love it for their students or even use it to brush up on their own skills before starting piano lessons. Jon's super passionate about this; for him, it's not just another course. It's the result of years tweaking and testing this method, both as a student and a teacher. Now, he's ready to share it with the world, hoping to shake up music education in a big way. For anyone jumping into this course, it's not just learning the notes; it's becoming part of something bigger, something that's changing how we learn music.

THE PROFESSIONAL CHORD SYSTEM
The Professional Chord System is a self-paced video course that teaches you to play piano without reading notes, using the same chord-based method trusted by professional musicians, church players, and hobbyists for decades. Originally filmed about 30 years ago, the lessons are straightforward, timeless, and proven to help you unlock songs faster, improvise with confidence, and finally enjoy playing without years of traditional training. This is not a Piano Guys course, but it comes with the full endorsement of Paul Anderson, Founder of The Piano Guys, who said: “This is the system I used to learn to play piano myself. Later, I helped sell thousands of these courses in my piano store. It helped people make faster progress than anything else I saw. I believed in it then, and I still do.”
