If you stay in Redhill, you would want to look for a piano teacher in Redhill. That’s straightforward because this means convenience and time-saving for you. If you are a parent looking for a piano teacher for your child, you would appreciate the accessibility if the piano or music school is just nearby.
In this article, we shall share with you the 5 things to look out for when looking for a piano teacher for your child.
1. Location
As mentioned at the beginning of this article, location of the piano school is important. Though we heard of cases where parents who do not mind travelling the distance to bring their child to a well-known piano teacher, there are others who would still like to save on the logistics and prefer somewhere near their house. Thus, if you happen to stay in Redhill, you may want to look at Key Signature Music School with experienced piano teachers.

2. The Piano
The musical instrument itself is an experience of its own. Not everyone can afford the price and space at home for a grand piano. The touch and feel, as well as the music a grand piano can be quite different compared to an average upright piano. It can help enhance your child’s learning experience when playing on a good quality piano, getting
to hear first-hand how beautiful the musical piece can sound to the ears.

3. Experience
Next to consider would be the teaching experience of the teachers. However, that is not to say we should not give new teachers a chance to shine. After all, all experienced teachers need to start off somewhere correct? If a teacher has no experience, then you should take other factors into consideration and see if you are willing to give the teacher a try. A good piano player might not make a great teacher. Check out the google reviews of a music school or piano teacher and see what others have to say.
4. Personality
This is an important consideration especially when it comes to choosing a piano teacher for your child. Teaching piano to an adult can be quite different from teaching piano to a child. It requires different skillsets and sometimes it boils down to personality. Some teachers can handle young children better as they are more patient and fun-loving.

5. Fees
Everyone has a budget and the fees can differ quite widely among different music schools and teachers. With all things considered, find one which fits into your budget and ask if you could do one lesson for trial. During the trial, you would be able to better gauge if your child like the teacher and enjoy the lesson with the teacher.
