Private Piano Lessons Singapore

Our private piano lessons are for all ages and are conducted weekly, and are generally one hour per session.

Classes with us are not always focused on exams. We can tailor our piano classes to your needs. However, students typically want to follow a recognized grading system. Some examples are the ABRSM and the Trinity College London exams.

Our classes are geared towards ABRSM grades 1 to 8 and are taught by an experienced teacher in a home studio.

About my Piano Lessons

Piano Pedagogy

Students will learn piano technique and build their repertoire. They will be taught essential and important skills for more advanced grades. Learning these skills early in the students’ music education will form the basis of a strong foundation.

Aural Training

Students will benefit from Aural training as part of the lesson to improve their musical ear. This skill is an integral component of their musical journey. Aural training enables the student to identify musical elements in their head while reading the music which then improves their ability to sight-read and to play their piece.

History of Music

Your child will be exposed to the great composers and the history of the genre that they are playing. This makes the learning fun and enables your child to connect to the pieces that they are playing. Learning about musical history helps your child to broaden their musical knowledge and keeps them coming back for more.

Theory of Music

Students will learn the theory of music as part of the lesson. A knowledge of music theory enables the student to understand the grammar of music. Students will be able to understand what the composer intended the music to sound like. The benefit is that sight-reading of the music score will improve for the student. Intensive music theory lessons are also available.

Musicianship

Learn how to connect the music from the music sheet into passionate phrases. The musicianship is about learning how to turn the notes on the music score into beautiful-sounding phrases. Musicianship improves performance and confidence in your child.

I have nothing but praise for Teacher Germaine! My playful 9-year old signed up for theory lessons with the aim of taking the ABRSM Grade 5 exams. Teacher Germaine is very good at assessing a student’s abilities and interests, and tailoring her lessons accordingly. She is a very effective educator and through her clear explanations, regular homework feedback, and encouragement, my son was able to obtain a distinction in his theory exam. Thank you Teacher Germaine for your dedication and hard work!

Took music theory G5 exam and scored FULL marks all thanks to Ms Germaine's tutelage. All just in 3mths. 😍 Really grateful for her help.Came in with very basic music theory knowledge and she retaught me everything so I could understand better. Her aural training lessons really helped me to become a better musician.💯

Germaine is a wonderful and wonderfully effective teacher. I sent my 8 yo as a tag along “optional” to 12 yo older sister’s Theory G1-5 course, both girls achieved G5 Distinctions after 6 months of lessons. I don’t know how she did it but I am so impressed! She gently pushed the girls (and me!) to keep up the momentum through periods of low motivation. She has developed a system that works. I am so glad to have had Germaine take the girls through this checkpoint.

Thank you Germaine, I have been learning Music Theory from many teachers, however, I did not see any improvement. But, with her guidance, I started to improve drastically. I know, from the start, I have been a stubborn student, refusing to complete the weekly homework. Germaine had been very patient, continuously encouraging and motivating me. I finally passed my Music Theory Examination with flying colours! I am glad to have Germaine as my teacher.

Germaine’s strength is her patience in teaching my son who can be stubborn and very disorganised. She encourages and inspire him to do well. She is meticulous in going through the syllabus and ensures that he has more than sufficient practice to do well in his theory exams.

Ms Germaine helped both my sons prepare for grade 5 theory exams, where they scored distinctions. Thereafter, she taught my older boy piano, and he just recently obtained a Merit grade for ABRSM grade 8 exam, despite a demanding academic schedule. She is currently teaching my younger son (who plays violin) aural, sight reading, and grade 6 theory. He enjoys his weekly lessons, and looks forward to them. Ms Germaine is a very knowledgeable, experienced and caring teacher, who is passionate about building up a good musical foundation in her students. If you're looking for a teacher for music theory, aural, sight reading and piano, we highly recommend her.

Meredith started her music theory lessons with Mrs Ho in September and she looks forward to the lessons each time. While her instrument is the violin, Mrs Ho is able to bring alive the knowledge of music theory with the importance of enjoying the musical journey and instrument. Her lessons are integrated with the child’s pace of learning, and Meredith knows that she is able to ask questions comfortably. Mrs Ho was also able to observe that a larger print of the sight-reading scales book might benefit our child better and indeed it has. We are thankful for Mrs Ho’s patience and keen interest in developing our child’s musical appreciation, not just from the mind but also from the heart.

Mrs Ho is a patient and encouraging teacher. She explains clearly and has reasonably high expectations of her students. She also keeps parents updated of their child's progress. Within a span of about five months, she prepared my son for Grade 5 theory. This was his first music theory exam and he obtained distinction. We are very grateful for her guidance. 👍

Matthew started Theory of Music lessons with Mrs Ho when he was 7 and hasn’t looked back since. It has been an amazing journey for him and he looks forward to his weekly lessons with Mrs Ho who enthuses with her passion and engaging stories about the history of music. In fact, so inspired was he, that he decided, on his own, to take up piano lessons under her tutelage. Kudos to Mrs Ho, for gifting Matt, the joy of learning Music! 🎶

Mrs Ho taught both my kids (7 and 10 years old) Grade 5 music theory. I was impressed that she was able to teach Grade 4 and 5 music theory in 2 - 3 months compared to the previous theory teacher that taught Grade 1-3 in 7 months. When she took over the teaching, she was sharp to observe what are the issues my kids was having on music theory and could rectify it.Professional and reliable teacher!Jo
