About Mr. Zach's Exact-Notes

Exact-Notes is all about better ways to teach music to youth.

Mastery Learning, Active Learning, and Universal Design for Learning, combined with traditional methods, are the guiding educational principles of our programs. In short, it's a better way to learn.

Since 2002, Mr. Zach has taught over 60,000 lessons and classes for music studios around West Michigan, homeschool organizations, summer camps, and local school districts. He earned a B.A. from Grand Valley State University then was awarded a U.S. Patent for a new music notation system for stringed instruments that has become the basis for his series of Kids Piano books and online courses.
