Expert instructors
Our piano instructors have studied with some of Europe’s finest musicians and specialise in teaching children rather than adults.
Nurturing and supportive
Children are never judged or criticised. They are guided with patience and positivity, and every milestone is celebrated.
Building confidence
Our goal is to help children grow in confidence, discipline and a love for music that lasts a lifetime.
Enrolling your children to our toddlers’ piano lessons reserved to the very young (3 to 5 years old) is a wonderful way to introduce them to the world of music. Learning the piano first is an excellent choice as it will certainly acquaint your children to the concepts of pitch, rhythm, harmony, melody and tempo. Thanks to their exceptional experience in teaching very young children, our piano instructors will surely know how to educate them in both an educational and entertaining fashion.
Our piano lessons for children are open to all children from 5 to 12 years old, who would like to start playing the piano or improve their skills from a young age. Whether they wish to take piano lessons as a hobby or with the aim of embarking on a professional journey, The Children’s Music Academy ensures the highest piano instruction possible in London and the United Kingdom. Learning the correct techniques from day one is key to success, and for this reason, we only work with outstanding piano instructors who specialise in teaching young children.
Reserved to girls and boys aged 13 to 18, our piano lessons for teenagers are designed for those who wish to start learning how to play the piano or pursue their piano education in classical, jazz or pop music. At The Children’s Music Academy, we understand the needs and wishes of teenagers and adapt our teaching methods to the young adults who are passionate about piano playing.

Common questions
Where are the piano lessons held?
In Fitzrovia, W1 — a few minutes from Oxford Circus and Great Portland Street — and in studios across Central London.
Who are the teachers?
Experienced performers and teachers who have studied under some of Europe’s finest musicians, and who specialise in teaching children rather than adults.
How are the lessons structured?
Weekly, on a set day and time. Each lesson builds technique, musical expression and confidence together rather than drilling one at the expense of the others, and the balance is matched to your child rather than to a fixed syllabus.
How long is each piano lesson?
Lessons are 20, 30, 45 or 60 minutes depending on age. Shorter lessons usually suit younger beginners; longer lessons suit children who are progressing towards more demanding repertoire.
When can my child start?
At any point in the year. Lessons are weekly on a set day and time, and are paid monthly.
Does my child need to have played before?
No. Complete beginners are welcome, and lessons are tailored to the level your child is starting from.
What if my child is not especially talented?
Then they are like almost every child who starts. Talent is not the entry requirement — attention is, and a good teacher builds that. Children are never judged or criticised here, and progress is measured against where your child began rather than against anybody else.
What is the minimum commitment?
Two months. Lessons are paid monthly, and notice of four teaching weeks can be given from the end of the first month — so the shortest possible commitment is two months.

A child who learns the piano develops three gifts for life:
a trained ear, the discipline to master something difficult,
and the ability to express what words cannot.
These are gifts that remain long after childhood.
