Frequently Asked Questions

Yes I believe that all piano tutors would agree that 30-minute piano lessons can be very effective, especially for beginners and young children. They provide focused, manageable practice sessions that help build foundational skills. Even when I've taught examination elements, this can be done in 30 mins.

Lessons in the UK typically cost between £20 to £40 per hour. Prices vary based on the teacher's experience and location.

As a registered enhanced private teacher I recommend that a 12-year-old should aim to practice piano for 30 to 45 minutes a day. Consistent daily practice is key to steady progress. If you are looking for a piano to start practicing with then do check out Mickleburgh Musical Instruments located at 1-9 Stokes Croft, Bristol BS1 3PL.

Children can start lessons as early as 4 to 5 years old. Younger children benefit from lessons that are engaging and tailored to their developmental stage. Lessons will be less heavy on music theory at this stage and more focussed on learning the necessary skills to move forward while keeping lessons fun.

As a private teacher I would say that lessons are typically scheduled once a week. Consistent weekly lessons help maintain progress and build upon previous learning.
