What private piano is good for
Steady progress, clear feedback, and exam confidence.
Private piano is the strongest pathway when a child needs tailored pacing or wants to build toward AMEB exams. The lesson can focus on the exact areas a student needs: pieces, technique, listening, general knowledge, sight-reading, and practice habits.
- One-on-one attention for posture, fingering, rhythm, reading, and musical expression.
- AMEB planning for students who are committed and ready for exam preparation.
- Technical work, aural test, general knowledge, and sight-reading built into the pathway.
- Students can prepare and sit exams in a familiar Rhodes studio environment.
Prepared Repertoire
Students work through selected exam pieces with attention to tone, rhythm, phrasing, memory, and performance confidence.
Scales and Exercises
Lessons include the technical requirements from early levels through higher grades when the student is ready.
Aural, General Knowledge and Sight-reading
AMEB success is not only playing pieces. We also train listening, theory context, and reading at sight.

Parent stories
One-on-one support families can feel.
"My daughter passed her AMEB exam this year, and her teacher deserves so much of the credit. The best part of one-on-one is that everything is paced around her - technique, theory, exam pieces, all really thorough. Every lesson has a clear goal and clear feedback, which puts me completely at ease as a parent."
Sarah M., mum of a 10-year-old"I don't know anything about music, so I was worried I wouldn't be able to help him practise. But after every lesson the teacher explains exactly how he's going and what to focus on at home. Watching him go from not reading a note to playing full exam pieces - this year's progress has blown me away. Professional and patient. Highly recommend."
Michael K., dad of a 9-year-old"We chose one-on-one because we wanted her to build proper, solid fundamentals. The teacher knows the AMEB requirements inside out - everything from fingering to expression is pitched just right, rigorous without ever making her lose interest. At the recent student concert she performed beautifully and so confidently. The whole family was proud."
