Hello all of you brilliant and talented people! Firstly I just want to say as a total outsider who just started this piano journey about 3 months ago I am *in awe* of absolutely all of you who play beautiful music. And trying to learn how to play piano has made me appreciate and really just made my jaw drop how you make your hands coordinate and be so precise.

So here's my thing, I'm 34 and I don't want to nor never could be a piano master BUT I feel an affinity to the instrument! I've learned the very basics of where the C note starts and can slowly guess my way to rest. My challenge is that making my left hand do a thing while my right hand does feels literally impossible. I've been able to learn songs where there's unison that the left hand plays a G sharp at the same time the right hand starts at a G and plays a melody, but as I further learn a song I find it impossible to keep up what the left hand should do while the right hand does xyz.

I've looked into having classes but where I'm from piano teachers are expensive, and also frankly while I understand that an understanding of the basics is crucial to being good at piano or anything, I am just not going to learn how to read sheet music or that a F sharp is also a G flat. Everything to the right is sharp thats just how it is. I learn better through muscle memory and at my age I just know anything else will go through the window (AS MUCH AS I LOVE LEARNING.)

So if anyone wants to to take a chance with this vagrant and maybe teach me the basics of what other keys sound good with F, I'd be eternally grateful. I'm also very good at writing and Admin/OSHA requirements so I could help you out with that in return.

Anyway if you've gotten this far thanks, I did NOT express myself the way I wanted. I love playing and touching my piano but have a hard time and think I need guidance. Any recommendations that aren't "Learn the basics" are appreciated, and if you would be my teacher to talk to about piano and writing or mythology generally, I'd be your guy.

Thanks!
