Frequently Asked Questions

 
  • Determining whether group piano lessons are the right fit for your child involves considering their individual learning style, social preferences, and musical goals.

    Group lessons can be beneficial for children who thrive in a collaborative and interactive environment, enjoying the camaraderie of learning alongside peers.

    If your child is sociable and gains inspiration from observing others, a group setting may enhance their musical experience. Additionally, group lessons often include ensemble activities, fostering teamwork and communication skills.

    Assess your child's comfort level with sharing their musical journey with others, as group lessons provide opportunities for performance and mutual encouragement.

    However, if your child requires more individualized attention or has specific learning needs, private lessons might be a better fit.

    We supply all printed materials for the lessons, and exclusive access to at-home study videos from the esteemed Hoffman Academy is included.

    It's important to note that, to fully engage with the lessons, students will need an instrument to play at home. While we recommend an 88-key weighted keyboard, such as the Yamaha P45, or an acoustic piano for optimal practice, we understand budget considerations.

    In cases where acquiring these instruments may pose a challenge, we encourage you to consult with our instructor for personalized recommendations on budget-friendly at-home instruments, ensuring that your child has the best possible tools for musical exploration.

  • Active participation and consistent practice are key expectations for your child throughout our group piano lessons.

    During lessons, we encourage your child to engage wholeheartedly in the learning process, asking questions, participating in activities, and collaborating with their peers.

    Outside of class, regular practice is essential for reinforcing new concepts and building a strong foundation. We recommend daily practice sessions of 15 minutes, with the duration adjusted based on your child's age and progressing skill level. This commitment to consistent practice not only solidifies their understanding but also enhances their overall progress.

    Additionally, we encourage a positive attitude and a willingness to explore the creative aspects of music. We understand that every child learns at their own pace, and our dedicated instructors are here to support and guide them on their musical journey. Your child's success is a partnership, and with your support and their commitment, we can foster a love for music that lasts a lifetime.
