Old Guildford Piano Lessons - Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to travel anywhere for my piano class?

At Piano Lessons In Your Home, our teachers teach you in your own home, ensuring you don’t waste time stuck in Old Guildford traffic to get to your piano classes.

Do your piano teachers come to Old Guildford? And on which days of the week?

Please call for more information as well as for information on Saturday and Sunday piano lessons.

Do I need to own a piano or keyboard?

We know pianos can be out of people’s budgets, that is why a cheaper keyboard is ok for beginners. Introductory keyboards are an easy and affordable option for homes without a piano.

When do you offer Old Guildford piano classes?

We typically offer after school lessons, on weekday afternoons to evenings, our Old Guildford piano teachers are very flexible and will always try to accommodate the time that suits you best. Weekend lessons are also readily available, please enquire for more information.

How old should my child be to begin piano lessons?

Children as young as five can begin learning the piano and basic music theory. Our Old Guildford 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 Old Guildford piano tutors 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 one-on-one lessons? Why not Old Guildford group  piano classes?

Group piano lessons are a great way for your child to socialise, but that’s about where the perks end. Private 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 one on one lessons progress a lot faster than students learning in group lessons.

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.

What are your Old Guildford piano tutors qualifications?

Only the best Old Guildford piano teachers work with our students. Our piano teachers:

• highly experienced in teaching all ages and skill levels
• are experienced in playing the piano themselves
• have undergone a NSW Government certified “Working with children” police check
• are very friendly and patient to make students comfortable with learning at their own pace.

Normally students take piano lessons once a week.

On the other hand 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 classes. Some of the best pianists in the olden times likely had lessons on a daily basis. We will often find that major composers and pianists came from a musical upbringing and their first coaches were often 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 Training is NOT Adequate

This is how weekly piano lessons ought to work. The trainer listens to what the student practiced in the previous week. The tutor would then give suggestions on how to improve or impart new concepts to develop the new pianist both technically and musically. From there, they may add some training tips and suggestions on what and how to rehearse in the succeeding week. The student would then practice for a week according to the teachers recommendations and this would carry on from week to week. Sadly this is very rarely the way trainings happen. This all assumes one very crucial thing. That the student in fact trained. Unfortunately more often than not the teacher will come to a lesson only to discover that the student did not practice. Oh no! What does the coach do now? Rehearse with the student of course! That’s what takes place if the student just did not rehearse, but unfortunately even if the student DID train this might still be the outcome. Why? Because practicing is challenging. Why Practicing is Tough Let’s think about what we’re asking young children, perhaps as young as 5, to do. The best way to train is to eliminate all distractions sit down at the piano and sort out on parts of music that the student cannot yet play. Playing from the start of a presentation is more often than not an unproductive use of time. Playing a minor segment bit by bit and correctly is often a requirement of good train. Then repeating it over and over and over. Then they would need to find a different minor section they are not contented with and do it once more. I’m done simplifying here, but the fact is to assist us understand how tough that is. How long should practice be? I would be glad with 15 minutes from a young child and 30 minutes from an elder child. How many five year olds do you know that could concentrate well for fifteen minutes without getting distracted. Or even better, how many grown-ups do you know that could do the same? And yet coaches anticipate that type of rehearse every week from their students. Realistically it is rarely if ever going to happen that way. But an exciting thing occurs when the trainer is sitting there. You have the trainer leading the student telling them what they need to rehearse and how many times to repeat it. The teachers can put right bad habits and improper posture. These are things a young child, or even an adult would have a hard time doing in a fixated way. How Frequent Should Lessons Be? For full effectiveness lessons should be held as frequent as feasible. If a student can allow lessons everyday, they’ll progress many multiples sooner than a student taking lessons once a week. It’s as simple as that. Most of the lessons will be the trainer just rehearsing with the student. But that train is completely precious. Realistically No not many of us can have enough money to take a lesson daily with their trainer. Not only that, but not every person needs to become the next Mozart. So determining how frequent to take lessons indeed varies on your goals. Contemplate about just what you’re looking for in lessons. Let’s outline some common ambitions. Ambitions for Piano Lessons

• Play one certain piece
• Play for my wedding
• Be able to play as a hobby
• Study serious as a lasting pursuit
• Make it a profession

If your objective for piano lessons is just to play one piece, clearly lessons everyday really aren’t desirable. You may really be able to even learn on your own! A piano teacher will at all times be helpful and create the music sound the best it can. If fund is a problem though, see if you can trace a lecture of the piece on YouTube. If you never desire to learn anything different, then it matters a lot less whether you are playing absolutely accurately or not. Although this all changes if you want to, or you desire your child to take this really sincerely. It doesn’t happen often, however I have a few students that would take an hour lesson 3 days a week, and then additional hour of music concept for a total of 4 hours a week of lessons. These students are always the finest. You become what you put in. If you don’t take lessons very sincerely, you won’t get as much pleasure out of lessons as if you put your whole spirit into it. As a pianist I can tell you that the pleasure that arises from playing beautiful music is boundless. Don’t miss out!
