All About Piano Lesson Costs

[concern_mum]

ya, i would think so. may be should start with 1 hr and increase to 1.5hr if needs to later. Any idea what is th market rates like for G6?[/u]

My dd is taking grade 7 now and only 1 hr. she only take grade 5 theory and so far, no intention to take grade 6,7 theory. The 1 hr lesson covers for both practical and theory explanations/guidance. But we shall see what the teacher would recommend after her grade 7 practical exam mid next year, if she should go for the theory as well. My dd goes to her house, $300 for 4 lessons, 1 hr each.

At gr 6 level, 1 hour definitely not sufficient to cover both theory and practical. The amount of understanding needed for gr 6 is not easy at all. It’s in depth with a lot more history of music involved. I have students who come to me for 45 mins lesson of only theory gr 6, 7 and 8. Of course one doesn’t need gr 6, 7 and 8 theory, not even at diploma level, but some students find that they understand the practical part better with an understanding of the theory behind it.

My girl is 6 years old. I bought a 2nd hand piano for her when she started her home lesson.

She use keyboard before that, when I started her with some music enrichment course when she is much younger.

Hi honeybeel, how is your girl's teacher? Is she good?

Yes, she is good and flexible on the lesson arrangement. And I think the charges are reasonable too.
