Piano Lesson

[Leingod]

Hello people! Well I have finally going to start fulfilling my long childhood dream which is getting myself a piano and start taking lesson.

I'm going for land of classical and I need a few advise from you people here.

How much does the lesson cost for beginner if I go for school or by tutor? I heard tutor price is ranging from 100 to 150 for 4 lessons but what about schools?

Which piano should I get? Well my budget is around 1k and surely I won't be able to get a upright piano. Was thinking about Yamaha P-85...

I think currently that's all sorry for the trouble.

Are you planning to take the classical exams? Need to get one which is an exam model if you are.

 

[Leingod]

Yes I'm planning to take exam.

Go ask Dr. John Sharpley to teach you damn good but $120 per hr but is damn good lor

But my fist is pretty tight you see I couldn't afford things that exceed my budget but I really want to fulfill my dream. Because I'm not like 10 years old and back when I was young my parents couldn't even afford.

If you are going to take exams, you'll need a piano. Digital piano isn't going to cut it. Just get a second hand piano. When exam time nears, you can book the exam studio and practice on the piano there. That's what I did in my younger days when we couldn't afford a good piano. In my higher grades, my piano teacher uses a grand and the exam is in her own studio - so I literally practice on the exam piano every week.
