How do you suppose someone should teach you over the internet? Unless you are suggesting someone to meet up w/ you in person to teach you. If so, this is not the right way to do it. i know how to play the piano. I have given lessons before. It cannot be taught over the internet. and you need to be more careful on how you do things. I'm sure there's some local people that you know that could help you out. You could always get a self-help book and learn on your own. that is how i learned. If you have that gift, you can learn on your own, too. I wouldn't make an invitation for a stranger to come into my life like this, if I were you. I don't know how familiar you are w/ psychos over the internet. If you're not familiar, I would suggest reading up on www.foxnews.com or watching the news. there's a story every week.

well, yes I can play those. No they're not easy, at first. But, alot of it is repetitive, so the more practice the easier it is to catch on. and the more you play, the more flexible your fingers will be.

Start learning playing chords in piano, it's more easier to practice. Chords and notes are co-related but has a little bit difference. Chords gives you the right tune but playing notes gives more specific sound. You can also use chords at your right hand while playing melodic notes at the other hand.

If you're having trouble reading music again or remembering keys, then practice and study is the way you'll need to learn. Take a book of piano pieces (even difficult ones) where you go, read through the music, and try to understand the notation. At your own piano/keyboard, practice your scale(s) and try to learn new pieces as well as you can until you don't even need music anymore. And if you have lesson books, try to remember to look at and follow fingering suggestions (the numbers). Ex. Concert C Scale (right hand fingers) [1 2 3 (cross thumb under) 1 2 3 4 5 (then down) 5 4 3 2 1 (cross middle finger over) 3 2 1]
