All About Choosing Piano Schools And Teachers

[SMH FOREST]

Does anyone have any recommendation of piano teachers for a 6 year old boy?

He previously did a 1 year music class with a sch and a few months of 1:1 teaching with a piano teacher at the teachers place. However the lessons were not regular and she was often engaged in activities, staycation, and eventually was on maternity.

The boy has always shown interest in piano and often asks for lessons. However, with such a long hiatus, it means a lot of refresher for him.

Can someone share any recommendation pls?? We stay at pasir Ris and if the teacher can do home lessons it will b great. If good teachers do not travel, we do not mind traveling too but must depend on distance.

Appreciate any recommendations pls. Thanks in advance!

I am looking for experienced (at least 5-10 years), patient and well qualified piano teacher (min diploma) who is great with young children.

I have a 7 year old who has recently expressed his interest in learning piano but I am pretty clueless and not sure how to engage the 'right' teacher.

Will appreciate if you could share your experience and contacts with me.

Location: Novena area
Preferred timing: Weekdays (Mon / Tue 4:00pm - 5:00pm)

Thank you so much for your help! Looking forward to your replies.

May I know where is the teacher teaching at? Is the teacher a lady? Does the teacher travel to the students place?

kids playing piano and learn guzheng at the same time, any issues with their fingers?

Well, I am one year into violin lesson now, and well, my left hand fingers do have more calluses compared to the right hand fingers, but so far I do not detect any loss in sensitivity in the fingers. So, perhaps for Guzheng, should be similar?

Hi, I hv zero music background myself. Am looking for a piano teacher for my 9yo DD. Been recommended 2 teachers (both more than 15years teaching experience) and they quoted me S$80/lesson for 45mins for coming to my place in Bt Timah. Does it make sense to pay this fee for beginner level?

I think it's a bit too high for beginner.

I heard of $160 for 4 lessons of 45mins. That is a bit ex too.

$80 / lesson is too ex, for a beginner

Beginner (Grade 1) : usually around $ 100 to $ 120, per month, for 4 lessons : 1 to 1 teaching

I paid only $ 100 per month for 4 lessons, for my dd Grade 1 piano lessons : 1 to 1 teaching, each lesson half an hour.

Almost same rate as Cristofori.
