Private music lessons, whether it be piano, guitar or singing — come with a whole heap of advantages. This goes for everyone - despite age, background or prior experience.

If you’re considering getting your child to start learning music, you might wonder if there is a point of paying for private lessons no top of the school curriculum? Are there really any added benefits from taking private lessons in addition to music class?

And if you’re beyond your schooling years — you may be considering picking up a creative or active hobby. So, why music? What’s the benefit? Are there any benefits?

Our answer is simple, and plain. Yes. There are incredible benefits to receiving weekly private music lessons outside of a conventional school, or online platform setting.

Children seem to absorb things like a sponge.

Whether it be learning a language, a new skill, joining a new sport, or picking up a musical instrument for the first time. Children learn. They often learn fast. It’s what they do.

You teach them something new? They absorb it. They believe it. Mostly because they lack the context, prior knowledge and experience to argue against it. Children are often dependent learners.

But why does learning seem so much harder when we are adults?
