All About Choosing Piano Schools And Teachers

[sacredmusicals]

Dreamaurora, if you are "underqualified" then most teachers do not deserve to teach already. Those big name teachers do not freely share and extend their help, whereas you do. Dont be so hard on yourself, if you are good, you are good. Dont care about what your peers think of you.

Hi, I’m wondering how young can a kid start learning piano??


On a side note, I’m also thinking of learning piano myself… Do I have to own a piano to learn? And what brands and where to buy ? Any recommended private teacher in sengkang?

Thanks in advance!

As long a child can sit still reasonably for around 20-30 minutes and can understand basic instructions, then should be ok to start piano lesson, but this is provided parent willing to assist and help at home.

Definitely best to own a piano to learn. But if not ready to commit to a piano, there are other options also such as renting piano studios at music school or renting pianos from some piano dealers.

I am looking for a piano teacher to teach my 3 kids in Ang Mo Kio on Sunday mornings. They are aged 8(g), 7(b) and 5(b). The 2 elder kids have 1 year lessons in Cristofori, not yet grade 1. The youngest has just started not long ago. Pm me for more info.

I think the piano schools in singapore are: Yamaha, Christofori, Mandeville, Oppus One, Edvox…


Is there anything else?

My eldest girl goes to Christofori, my second, third and fourth all go to edvox. I think Yamaha is the best from some of my friend’s experiences but none of my children want to go to edvox so I let them if not they will have a horrible learning experience.

Oh and is there anyone else who’s daughter is halfway through diploma? PM me if yes because I want to discus about how hard diploma is.

Is ABRSM the only exams? Grade 2 or 3 difficult to pass?
Sorry I am new to piano exams. Piano teacher wants to put DS in for exams next Mar.

For Singapore there are also Trinity, LCM, ANZCA, Rockschool, and Yamaha's own graded exam system.

ABRSM exams are not difficult to pass as long the teacher is prudent in ensuring that the requirements are completed early.
