Q: Do I need a piano at home to take piano lessons?
A: It is ideal if you do have a piano at home, but you can start lessons by using an electric
keyboard to practice on. Most of our students rent or buy small electric keyboards practice on at
home. We recommend a keyboard that has regular sized keys and a touch sensitive response. A
touch sensitive keyboard means if you press a key harder it will play louder and if you press a key
softer it will play quieter.
Q: Do I need a full drum set to take drum lessons?
A: No you do not need a full drum set to start drum lessons. Students can start lessons by using a
practice pad. This is a small dinner plate sized pad that costs $20-$30 that is used for practicing
basic drum rhythms.
Q: How long does it take to learn an instrument?
A: There is no set answer of how long it takes to learn an instrument. With regular practice a
basic level of playing can be accomplished in a few months. Most of our students take lessons on
a long term basis because they want to be constantly improving and they find the lessons
enjoyable.
Q: I don't have any musical background or ability; can I still help my child practice?
A: Yes. Even if you don't have a musical background you can ask the teacher for advice on how
to help your child practice. By simply monitoring that they are doing exercises a certain number of
times per day the student will progress. Many parents occasionally sit in on their child's music
lesson to get an idea of the proper way a song should sound or how the student should be
positioning their hands.
