What age is best to start music lessons for kids?For MYC® Programs: Our MYC® music program starts for kids as young as 27 months old, and with keyboard program from as young as 3 years old. ​ Each child possesses a unique blend of readiness markers—interest, maturity, and motivation—that shape their ideal starting point. During pre-class assessment, our teachers observe these cues to recognize if your child is ready to start their musical journey. Whether they start early or later, each step fosters creativity and growth, sparking a lifelong passion for music. There's no better time than now to nurture their musical spark! For other non-MYC® Programs: We also provide musicianship training for kids from 2 years old, progressing to keyboard program at as young as 3 years old. Further details on how each program cater to young childrens' learning needs can be clarified by Ms Taly Yap, principal teacher of our music school.

How to choose a music teacher?Discovering the right music teacher is key to unlocking your musical potential.

Our team of experienced and passionate music teachers, all holding relevant music qualifications and a deep love for sharing their knowledge, is dedicated to creating a personalized learning experience at our music school. Through an initial consultation, our instructors understand your and/or your child's learning style and goals, then match them with the perfect teacher – whether they thrive in a structured setting or prefer a more relaxed approach. Furthermore, our MYC® curriculum and engaging activities cater to different age groups, ensuring a fun and motivating environment. Many parents appreciate our encouragement of trial lessons for their child to connect with the teacher and discover their unique teaching style.

If we missed any lesson, will there be any make-up classes?For MYC Programs Unfortunately, we do not provide make-up classes for missing MYC programs, for kids and adults. Our teachers are engaged with a fixed schedule, teaching on specific days and timings. However, should the teacher deem that the student is falling behind, they can request to arrange make-up classes, based on their availability, to supplement the student’s learning. As such, these make-up classes (30 minutes each) come with a fee of 1 entire lesson. In our experience, parents and children should be able to keep up with the class despite missing a lesson, when they revise and practise consistently for a minimum of 5-7 days a week. For non-MYC Programs Maximum of 4 make-up class a year. No more than 1 make-up class in a month. Eligibility for make-up class has to come with valid documentation/reasons for missing class.
-
Is the parent’s participation compulsory for the lessons?For MYC® Programs: Parents are an integral part of an MYC® music class -- children bond with their parents as they work together to learn the fundamentals of music. We highly recommend parents to accompany and participate with your child in each lesson. This helps parents to be aware of how to support and guide your child in class and at home. Parents are expected to guide your child to revise the concepts taught in class as well as practice for a minimum of 5 days/week and 15-30 minutes/day to see progress in this course. We believe that Parents are the key to success in learning any instrument to help a Child build a “Happy Habit of Learning Music". For Other non-MYC® Programs: Parental companion is only requested by teachers when deemed necessary. However, we encourage parents to continuously work with teachers to monitor their progress at home as well.
