Formative Years

If you’re reading this article, we reckon that you, a parent yourself, have since agreed that kids can benefit from early exposure to music. As your child grows up, you find yourself wondering which piano class is good yet comparatively affordable can your kid go next. It’s a legitimate worry and you’re in the right place. Read on…

Years earlier, in our effort to cultivate an early interest in music in our little ones, we proceeded to sign them up for enrichment music programs. For years, we sang, chanted, moved, danced, listened and played simple instruments with them in their weekly wonder-filled classes.

By now, our kids have had a year or two of kindergarten. They, without a doubt, are now used to adult-directed learning. Looking back, we were all in, committed to providing the best possible early music education there was to our kids because we believed music education is vital to our child’s development. We also believed that music education goes a long way in developing cognitive, social, and motor skills. As parents, we did our best to give them a head start in music education.

What’s Next?

The question is, what’s next? Your child is now 5-6 years old. Their hands are now flexible. Their fingers are of the right size and are limber enough to start exploring a musical instrument. Evidently, at 5 or 6, a child should have the mental capacity to grasp the complex language of music.

Most kids at such age are rightfully ready to take learning a musical instrument of their choice seriously. Our little ones, having undergone all possible phases of early music education, have finally chosen one specific instrument to learn. And, unsurprisingly, as many Malaysian kids did do, they’ve chosen to learn to play the piano. It was an understandable choice because the piano is the best first instrument to learn.

Best Option

As parents, it’s only natural to be concerned about the type of music centre to consider next. What qualifying criteria are there to ponder upon? These are, among others, questions many parents, myself included, would often ask. Again, all of these are legitimate worries. Sure, kids starting music lessons can be a daunting undertaking. Too many choices are just as bad as too few choices when in the end, it will all probably boil down to a number of authoritative criteria; such as but not limited to:

01) Its location (Near or far)

02) The quality of its lessons (Experienced, qualified teachers with good reviews)

03) Its fees (Too exorbitant or too good to be true)

Each point above interrelates with all the others. Much like choosing a good quality school. The same is true when it comes to choosing a good piano class for kids. The best option, as is often the case, has always been the one at the centre. The one that takes all three points above into careful consideration.

Piano Lessons In Selangor & Kuala Lumpur

That being said, below is a list of established music centres in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur that may be suitable for your little ones to get their piano lessons. Bear in mind that, there are obviously many music centres out there. Small or big. And to list every single music centre here on the list would be undoable. The list below is but a good place to start. You may call them up and ask any questions you have in mind. Make a visit and talk to them. Talk to the teacher especially. Also, some centres may allow you to observe a lesson with one of their students. Don’t hesitate to ask for a trial lesson too. Most if not all music centre usually provides trial lessons. Doing this alone may help speed up your kids’ learning curve possibly by weeks if not months.
