Piano Lessons for Young Children in Toronto

What is the ideal age for a child to start piano lessons?

 Teaching music to young children is a highly specialised field, and it is important to recognise that not all piano teachers are well suited to this. At Toronto Piano Teachers we actively recruit piano teachers specialising in teaching piano lessons to children 3 years and above.

Toronto Piano Teachers believes that you are never too young to start making music. As soon as a child has the ability to maintain focus for a 30-minute private lesson, they are ready to begin piano lessons.

In fact, we all start learning music from the time we enter the world - even before we are born. These days music is all around us, and as our impressionable minds are exposed to music for the first time, our brains naturally begin to recognise the sound patterns that make up the language of music. In these, our first “music lessons” in aural training, our ears begin opening up to the emotion, adventure, and playfulness that music can communicate to us. 

Your child’s musical development will thrive with the guidance of a piano teacher who specialises in teaching piano lessons to young children.

We make sure that our specialists in beginners’ piano lessons for young children have excellent teaching methods, guaranteed to engage and inspire young children, and make your child’s first exposure to the piano fun and enjoyable. These first piano lessons also set in place the basics of piano technique, posture, hand position, the ability to read music notation, listening and aural skills, and musicality and expression, that once established will provide the foundation for your child’s life-long adventure in piano playing.

Our piano teachers are intuitive and creative, sensitive to children’s attention spans, and able to turn any aspect of the piano lesson into a game, making learning fun. Our piano teachers incorporate singing and playing drums and other percussion instruments into piano lessons, which are excellent ways to develop the ear and a feel for rhythm at any age, and are great for engaging young children in music. Students learn to read music notation by progressing through one of a variety of method books available, which their piano teacher will recommend to them for purchase.

The role of parents is crucial to the success of piano lessons for young children. Our piano teachers are aware that young children often learn best directly from their parents, and our piano teachers will help parents develop a strong understanding of what their child is learning so that parents can support their children during the piano practise time between lessons.
