How old should my child be to begin piano lessons?
Children as young as 5 can begin learning the piano and basic music theory.
Our Mount Druitt piano teachers are experienced in teaching young children who are complete beginners, and have all the patience and personality needed to encourage your child and give them best start in their musical journey.
What styles of piano music do you teach?
Our Mount Druitt piano trainers are qualified to teach all styles of music, whether you’re interested in popular, contemporary, classical, jazz, musical theatre or even Nintendocore (yes, this is an actual genre). However, we encourage our students to explore all genres to show them just how interesting the piano can be.
Why enrol my child in 1 on 1? Why not Mount Druitt group piano lessons?
Group piano classes are a great way for your child to socialise, but that’s about where the perks end. Individual piano classes ensure that your child won’t get left behind, and can learn at their own pace.
In personal experience, piano students learning in individual lessons progress a lot faster than students learning in group classes.
Am I too old to start learning to play piano?
NO! There is no set age to begin learning a musical instrument, and the best time to start is right this moment – ie Now!
Learn to play your favourite songs, learn how to read music, learn theory, or just about anything you’d like to know about the piano.
Playing the piano is a fun and great way to exercise your creative abilities so don’t just dream about it, start learning.

Usually students take piano lessons once a week.
But if you just give me a minute of your time, I’ll tell you why that’s often not the best way to go.
I myself think the best approach to response to this enquiry is to look at the best of the best and see how often THEY took lessons.
Some of the best pianists in history likely had lessons on a everyday basis. We will frequently find that major composers and pianists came from a musical background and their first teachers were frequently one of their parents. Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven just to name a few had parents who were musicians and probably gave them day-to-day lessons.
Piano Rehearsal is NOT Sufficient
This is how weekly piano lessons should work. The teacher listens to what the student trained in the previous week. The teacher would then provide suggestions on how to get better or teach new ideas to improve the young pianist both technically and musically. From there, they may add some training tips and suggestions on what and how to rehearse in the following week. The student would then rehearse for a week according to the trainers suggestions and this would continue from week to week.
Sadly this is very hardly the way lessons happen. This all concludes one very crucial thing. That the student in fact trained. Sadly more often than not the trainer will come to a lesson only to find that the student did not rehearse. Oh no! What does the tutor do now? Practice with the student of course!
That’s what happens if the student just did not practice, but unfortunately even if the student DID train this could still be the result. Why? Because practicing is difficult.
Why Practicing is Hard
Let’s think about what we’re asking young children, perhaps as young as 5, to do. The best way to rehearse is to remove all diversions sit down at the piano and sort out on segments of music that the student cannot until now play.
Playing from the start of a presentation is more often than not an unproductive use of time. Playing a small segment slowly and accurately is often a requirement of good rehearse. Then recapping it over and over and over. Then they would need to trace another small section they are not contented with and do it once more.
I’m done making things easier here, but the point is to aid us understand how hard that is. How long should rehearse be? I would be glad with 15 minutes from a young child and thirty minutes from an elder child. How many five year olds do you know that could focus well for fifteen minutes without getting distracted. Or even better, how many grown-ups do you know that could do the same?
And yet teachers anticipate that style of rehearse every week from their students. Realistically it is rarely if ever going to happen that way. But an interesting thing happens when the coach is sitting there. You have the coach leading the student telling them what they need to train and how many times to repeat it. The tutors can correct bad habits and improper stance. These are things a young child, or even an adult would have a hard time doing in a determined way.
How Often Should Lessons Be?
For full effectiveness lessons should be held as often as feasible. If a student can allow lessons daily, they’ll progress many multiples quicker than a student having lessons once a week. It’s as easy as that. Most of the lessons will be the coach just practicing with the student. But that train is absolutely precious.
Realistically
No not many of us can have enough money to take a lesson everyday with their teacher. Not only that, but not every person needs to become the next Mozart. So determining how often to take lessons really depends on your objectives. Think about just what you’re looking for in lessons. Let’s define some collective objectives.
Ambitions for Piano Lessons
- Play one specific piece
- Play for my wedding
- Be able to play as a hobby
- Study serious as a all-time pursuit
- Make it a business
If your objective for piano lessons is just to play one piece, clearly lessons daily indeed aren’t needed. You may actually be capable to even learn on your own!
A piano teacher will continually be helpful and make the music sound the best it can. If fund is an problem though, see if you can discover a tutorial of the piece on YouTube. If you never want to study anything new, then it matters a lot less whether you are playing absolutely correctly or not.
However this all changes if you want to, or you want your child to take this really honestly. It doesn’t happen often, but I have a few students that would take an hour lesson 3 days a week, and then additional hour of music theory for a total of 4 hours a week of lessons. These students are always the finest.
You get what you put in. If you don’t take lessons very seriously, you won’t get as much satisfaction out of lessons as if you put your entire emotion into it. As a pianist I can tell you that the happiness that arises from playing beautiful music is boundless. Don’t miss out!
