All About Choosing Piano Schools And Teachers
-
Hello Winniel,
Have you tried DownTown East (Cristofori) or White Sand (Seimpi)?
What day and time are you looking at? -
Hello Peanut,
No, I’ve not tried them, as my son’s already in Yamaha Tampines for these past 4 months.
Initially, I’ve terminated his lesson, & will be doing his last month there. However, his interest seems to have picked up lately, thus I decided to just continue on for the time being & asked to be put on waiting list for other time slots.
I’m looking at around 6pm weekdays, or Saturday mornings actually.
Are you familiar with Cristofori & Seimpi?
How are their charges & teachers? -

There are a few foreign music graduates/performers in Cristofori, DownTown East. Cristofori hires lots of non-locals. Since they are on contract, students may or may not be studying from the same teacher for long term. Fee start from $75 per half hour. Seimpi focuses on group lessons for very young kids. They do offer individual lessons in Funan IT mall. I am not sure about White Sand. I think if their teachers do both group lessons and individuals, they may be good at dealing/clicking with kids.I'm looking at around 6pm weekdays, or Saturday mornings actually.

How are their charges & teachers?
Generally, most studios are packed on Saturday mornings. You may like to try Christofori Tampines if you have no luck with the 2 schools.
I am also available on Wednesday early evenings for home tutoring. But not at 6pm.
All the best! -

Best regards!

Hi am new here, can anyone tell me the difference between piano tuition at home or in a school eg cristofori better? Will the fees differ ?

Private teacher you can choose who you go to - choose male, female; choose ex or cheap; experience, not so experience etc, in music schools teachers are allocated to you. Generally in music schools, the child gets chances to perform, whether in a group or as an individual though some private teachers are in-corporating this into their teaching as well, for example, performing in front of fellow students.
Fees wise, on the whole, music schools are a tad cheaper. Having said that, private teachers have a wide spectrum of very high fees (like $120 per HOUR) to extremely low fees ($100 per MONTH). Yes, even for beginners. -
thank u so much! its so insightfl…will send my kid to a sch for better exposure
