Frequently asked questions about when to start lessons

Too soon to start?

Any age is a good age to start! Generally, a six-year-old student has the language skills and focus to succeed at piano lessons.

Is it too late?

Of course not. Adults are usually surprised at how quickly they progress in such a short period of time.

Frequently asked questions about how long to practice

How long to practice?

Two, 15-minute practice sessions daily are sufficient for most beginners to see progress.

How often to practice?

Schedule it into your day. Regular daily practice makes piano playing fun; it is less likely to happen on its own.

Frequently asked  questions about piano location

Home practice location?

Set up a comfortable spot in your home to practice, preferably where the student is not too isolated.
