The Best Music Teachers for Children: Piano lessons, Guitar lessons, Singing lessons

Everyone is musical, everyone can play, everyone can sing - and every child can get an enormous amount of pleasure and benefits out of playing an instrument or singing.

Go about it the right way - and you will be giving your child an experience and joy that will last a lifetime.

Our faculty consists of an outstanding group of young musicians with extensive academic and performing backgrounds - that are eager to teach and motivate your child.

However - we do need your help...

As you know, most good things in life - don't come easy. Playing music is no exception.

In order to make progress and feel the satisfaction of being a musician - your child needs to practice at home. 
or as the saying goes - Practice Makes Perfect.

So, how to make practice count?
 
How do you help organize your child's practice to keep them interested and motivated? After all, poorly structured practice could do more harm than good. Your child may not make real progress with the instrument and could get bored.

There are ways that you can help your child make the most out of their practice time:

Practice should be a regular part of your child's daily routine. Good times may be when they get home from school before homework or before school.

Don't push young children into long practice sessions - five or ten minutes will probably be enough.
It helps if you listen to them and encourage them as they practice, especially with younger children.

Don't make practice a punishment, or your child may start to see it as a chore.

Some teachers recommend a practice record book to fill in, with comments on whether they have enjoyed a particular piece, or found a scale or exercise challenging. This encourages the pupil to be involved and reflect on their motivation and progress.

Encourage your child to practice slowly and to take difficult passages apart to try and find out what the difficulty is. Things don't get better by just playing the music over and over again with the same errors.

Help your child with a practice plan to include:
- Warming-up 
- Scales and the last song that they have practiced
- Any new material they have been assigned - they should try to master any challenging parts first 
- Encourage them to end with a piece that they have finished and enjoy playing
