So I spent a year learning to play the piano. This video the result of probably about 350400 hours of practice doesn't even come close to some of the oneyear progress videos out there, but I'm putting it up here as a record of my progress, and hopefully to inspire someone else to take a leap into starting something they've always wanted to do.

I messed around with a bunch of different songs that I couldn't include in this video, and I'm planning to continue tweaking everything I worked on as you can probably hear, my tempo and dynamics need work even on the stuff I can 'play'. I used a bunch of resources, but some of the most useful were:

Jane's Piano (YouTube channel)
Andrew Furmanczyk (YouTube channel)
Alfred's Basic Level 1 (https://amzn.to/3KG6WOI)
My keyboard is a Roland FP10: https://amzn.to/3ejmeg7

I practised scales pretty much every day that I sat at the piano for at least the first eight months, and added in arpeggios and chord inversions after that. I also started reading music from my first day, although I didn't practice that as much as I should have planning much more of it over the next year. If you've got any more questions about technique/songs I learned, etc, please hit me up in the comments and please subscribe to see future piano projects!
