All About Choosing Piano Schools And Teachers

[mikyway]

Hi, I need a piano teacher who is able to prepare my boy for grade 8 piano exam and motivate him. Although ds did well for his last exam, he seemed to lose interest in piano and find his piano lesson boring. His teacher is good but I think there is a mismatch in her teaching style and his learning style. Prefer teacher in Sengkang or punggol area. Appreciate parents’ recommendation.

hi,

i would like to seek your advice.

Currently my child has been learning piano with a private teacher (1-1) for 3 years and she is still in basic beginner stage.
Before she was with this private teacher, she has completed yamaha JMC.
I wonder 3 years of doing basic after completion of JMC, is that too slow for my child? Should i switch teacher? Thank you.

If it's my child , I would see if he is progressing .. And if he is still interested .. If he is then it's fine but if no progression , I would change a teacher..

During the time with this teacher, has he/she mentioned or brought up exams for your child? If no, possibly state your interest in registering your child for exams next year and see what the teacher says. After 3 years and JMC, your child should be ready to try for at least Grade 1 if not Grade 2 exams.

Hi starz,
What do you mean by basic beginner stage? Are you referring to pre grade 1? If so, then it certainly sounds too slow. Even without JMC, it usually takes 1.5 - 2 years from start (touching the piano) to completing grade 1. How long was the JMC course? Does your child practice at home?

If your child has been putting in some practice at home, then I would think can go much faster. Have you spoken to the teacher regarding your child's progress?
