All About Choosing Piano Schools And Teachers

[bicky]

ThinkingLoft:

No, her teacher has never feedback to me about her fingering, her strength or anything. She did tell me that she need to learn a bit more on the theory. As for practical, she is quite ok. She needs to ensure her theory is ok before she can go for her practial exam.



You definitely do not need to pass theory before you take practical exams. Like that your daughter will end up taking Grade 1 after she hits P1 cause theories requires a certain level of reading and writing skills. A lot of young children take their practical first then catch up on their theories when they are more ready.

My gal is in P1 now. If she is taking her G1 from this school, she will be in P2 by then.

Hi parents

I have zero music background. My 6 yr old boy is learning piano. I find it hard to supervise him because I don’t even know which piece he played, and whether he played correctly or wrongly. I can only encourage him to practise. What can I do (other than sending him for more lessons) to help him progress? Thanks!

Hi 2ppaamm

Thanks for the link. It gives sound advice. But I can’t be like her cos I really have ZERO music knowledge. At least she had learnt to play different instruments (maybe not piano but others) in school.

Maybe start by sitting in the class and learning together with the child?
