Piano lesson questions

Which way of learning piano is right for me?

Choose 1-to-1 lessons to learn at your own pace or prepare for exams, or a small group to learn with family or friends. Once you’re taking lessons, add the Pop Band Experience to play in a band and perform.

Do I need my own piano?

You’ll need a piano or keyboard at home to practise on. You can also book the piano in the TWA studio from $20 an hour.

Can my child prepare for ABRSM, Trinity or DSA on piano?

Yes. 1-to-1 lessons can prepare for ABRSM and Trinity graded exams, planned with your teacher.

I’m an adult beginner. Is it too late to learn piano?

Not at all. Many of our learners start as adults or come back after years away. Lessons fit around your work schedule, and you set the pace.

Can seniors learn piano?

Yes. We go at your pace, so there’s no need to worry about being slow. Learning an instrument keeps your hands coordinated and your mind active, and it’s a friendly way to meet people.
