All About Choosing Piano Schools And Teachers

It really depends on the quality of the service/teaching. Cannot simply judge by duration of the lesson.

ya, must try, but your standard/expectation will also be changing along the learning journey. We all hope to get one teacher teaching from beginner to highest level but usually not so ideal

Have a trial lesson to guage?

Seriously, my boy had trial lesson and the teacher was good, and we have never regretted signing up lessons with her altho' expensive. S$178 for 4 lessons of 30mins each.

Very good advices and sharing given by the parents here.


I have come across kids who are actually talented but become discouraged because they didnt start off with a good teacher. It would be rather challenging to get their motivation and interests back, though not entirely impossible.

For 45 mins piano lesson, think maybe $150/ Mth is reasonable.

Dear parents, my ds have been going to cristofori for 1 year plus and prior to that almost a year in CC. Stopped him from cristofori as they screwed up the exam registration. The teacher failed to communicate to me on his registration for Grade 1 exam despite telling him to do so. When asked why his answer was \"I asked your son and he said he is not ready\". I was baffled my his answer. :slapshead:


So now I am looking for an experienced piano teacher who is responsible and able to motivate my ds. My ds is 8years old and we live in Bishan. Appreciate if parents can recommend. Thank you so much in advance.

PM me please.

I just see how he/she teaches - the interaction with my child, whether clicks/gets thru to my child, and whether I like the approach.

You are welcome, in fact, the standard question is how long, how much, go to Tr's place or come over to my pl, but for the technical qns, I believe it really depends on your own experience and your own expectation,
