How does a group piano lesson work?
No matter how much time a beginner spends with a teacher, students can only learn so much in a week – They need time to practice new musical ideas. Group lessons take the pressure off young students and make the process more enjoyable.
As a first priority, we teach students to read music so they can practice independently – and this is where the magic happens! Under our guidance, students teach themselves to play the piano.
As long as the pieces are fun, students become active and engaged learners. This allows a teacher to move around the room and help students work at their own pace.
We don't have a keyboard/piano at home - does this matter?
While having an instrument at home does make a different to progress we appreciate there will be some hesitancy while you try to gauge your child’s level of interest and commitment. There are piano apps for tablets that we can recommend.
We also have a rent-to-own keyboard deal where we can help you pay down a keyboard over successive schools terms (or simply offer you a really good price on a brand new keyboard)
