Our piano curriculum blends classical technique with the music students actually want to play giving them the best of both worlds.
The foundation of all piano education. Classical training builds proper hand technique, advanced sight-reading, and the musical depth that separates technically sound pianists from truly expressive ones.
Play the music you actually love. Contemporary piano covers chord-based playing, pop accompaniment, film score repertoire, and the harmonic concepts behind modern music. Built on classical technique, but applied to the songs that move you today.
From first-time learners discovering the piano to serious students preparing for stage, exams, composition, and performance each level gets a curriculum designed specifically for the student’s current skill, pace, and musical goals.
Year 1 builds the student’s core piano foundation. Students begin with posture, finger numbers, keyboard geography, simple rhythms, and familiar melodies, then gradually move into two-hand coordination, basic chords, notation reading, and complete pieces.
Keyboard layout, finger numbers, posture, basic notes, simple rhythm, and first melody.
Right-hand melodies, basic rhythm reading, left-hand single notes, and 2–3 simple pieces.
Basic chords, two-hand coordination, simple accompaniment patterns, and more repertoire.
4–5 pieces across styles, basic notation reading, simple dynamics, and first confident performance.
Year 2 helps students move beyond basic piano playing. They begin reading music more fluently, playing with both hands independently, understanding scales and chords, and performing complete pieces with better timing, expression, and confidence.
Treble clef reading, bass clef introduction, simple two-hand pieces, and rhythm exercises.
Major scales, chord progressions, broken chords, and simple accompaniment patterns.
Left-hand patterns, right-hand melody control, dynamics, articulation, and genre-based pieces.
Playing with other musicians, performance-ready pieces, stage confidence, and exam-oriented preparation.
Year 3 is for students who are ready to become confident piano performers. The focus shifts to advanced technique, expressive playing, stronger sight-reading, harmony, improvisation, interpretation, and preparation for global exams or stage performances.
Advanced finger exercises, scales, arpeggios, hand control, tone, and dynamic playing.
Chord inversions, progressions, phrasing, pedal use, expressive playing, and musical interpretation.
Advanced classical and contemporary pieces, arrangement work, and stage preparation.
Mock exams, sight-reading, aural practice, technical work, and annual recital performance.
Year 4 is designed for serious piano learners who are ready to move beyond structured lessons into artistry. The focus is on personal style, advanced performance, interpretation, composition, accompaniment, recording basics, and preparation for higher-level global exams or professional opportunities.
High-level piano pieces, advanced technical work, stylistic interpretation, tone, and expression.
Phrasing, dynamics, pedal control, genre study, and developing a personal piano sound.
Original music ideas, arrangement, MIDI basics, recording concepts, and building a performance portfolio.
Solo performance, ensemble collaboration, advanced exam preparation, and final showcase.
