Yamaha or Cristofori

[waiyean]

It is very important for parents accompany during this phase. Schools that doesn’t allow parents to sit in may cite reasons such as promoting independence. However, my opinion is that kids at that age cannot be relied on to do the learning themselves without parental guidance. The real reason may be the school has a small room, and cannot accommodate the parents in the class.


So far, I have always been sitting in the music classes that my daughter attends. The schools actually promotes, and wants the parents to sit in, in order to provide guidance for the rest of the week.

At 3.5 years, the child should be able to learn an instrument already, and not just only do those aural and singing stuff.

These 2 schools start individual instrument only at 5yo... and he has never attended any music class before, so I thought this type is a good start for him ? I just worry if no parent accompany, then can how to coach him at home? Anyone send kid to Christofori , the little Mozart course before?


Thanks.

Hi kiasuchabo,

You ever considered schools other than the 2 mentioned?
There are a couple of schools that may not be as well known, but offers far superior programs for the young child, and also let them learn the instrument much younger.

Thanks so much

There are some CC who provides Piano classes too.
