Frequently Asked Questions

  • How can I get started?
The fastest way to get started is to fill out the Contact form here. We will have a phone consult about your child's needs and goals. From there we will look to schedule a 1-time paid trial lesson where you get to see how we work with your kids. After your kids are excited, you will be invited to register and support your child in weekly lessons.
​
  • What do you teach?
The Method series we use combines many genres including Classical, Pop, Blues, and Modern styles like Disney. Your first year will comprise of learning to read music, navigate the keyboard geography, and even to compose music.

  • How do lessons generally work? 
Students meet with their teacher once a week at their schedule lesson time-slot. Our school operates year round and students have the opportunity to participate in annual piano examinations from the Royal Conservatory of Music and Piano Recitals.

  • What ages do you teach?
Our program specializes in working with school-aged kids. Most students typically start taking lessons as 6-year-old beginners and continue studying until the end of their high school years, prepared to enter a music conservatory. Some signs that a student is ready is when they know how to count to 10, and can recite their ABC's. If you have a student that is interested in piano that lies outside that demographic, please reach out to us so we can discuss the options to study at Eric's Piano school if younger or as an adult.

  • Do you offer free trials?
At Eric's Piano School, we offer paid trials that cost the same as a single lesson.

  • Is an instrument needed at home and if so what sort?
In order to ensure the best results and progression, it is a requirement that a student intends to purchase a piano. It is an option to proceed with the trial prior to owning a piano. The promises of transformation we make at our school rely on at-home play in addition to lessons. If you have questions about which piano to purchase, contact me using the form and I can send you my First-Timer Entry-Level Piano Buying Guide.

  • What do you charge?
Tuition rates vary per program. Please use the contact form to receive a price quote of our current rates. We are not the cheapest studio in the area, but the proof is in the pudding! Please see our reviews.

  • Do you offer any discounts?
At our school, we don't offer discounts as our program offers all-inclusive pricing to give you everything you need to make your best progress.

  • Are your teaching hours fixed or flexible?
When starting piano lessons, it is essential to stick to a regular time slot that allows a student to optimize their learning process. Changes to the schedule can be made at the beginning of the new month. In the event of a schedule conflict, please reach out to us to see if there is an option for a rescheduled lesson.

  • What do you expect from parents?
Parents are expected to ensure that students keep regular attendance in lessons. Additionally, they are the support role that is essential to remind children to practice at a minimum 20 minutes a day, 5 days a week if they want to get optimal results. Parents of younger children (7 and below) will need to supervise practice and make sure they are practicing properly. I see dramatically different results from students whose parents are active participants in their child's piano learning journey.
