Notes Voice

Lessons run with the phone turned sideways. Sound needs the silent switch off. Each letter has its own chord: top dots sound high, bottom dots low, and with headphones each hand plays in its own ear. On a computer, F D S are dots 1 2 3 and J K L are dots 4 5 6. Press the keys of a chord together, and H to hear the chord.

Can you hear this?

Six talks to you and plays a note for each finger, so you need sound on. With headphones, you’ll hear your left hand in your left ear and your right hand in your right.

How to hold your phone

Turn your phone sideways

The iPhone’s braille keyboard works sideways, so Six does too.
