Challenges Faced by Piano Students
1. Overcoming Initial Learning Curves
For beginners, the challenge of learning basic music theory, hand coordination, and rhythm can be overwhelming. This struggle is similar to how students in Primary School or Secondary School adjust to new academic subjects. Patience and consistent practice are essential for overcoming this challenge.
2. Performance Anxiety
Like students preparing for important exams, such as O-Level or A-Level, piano students often face performance anxiety when preparing for music exams or recitals. This pressure can hinder their progress and affect their confidence in playing.
3. Mastering Technique and Theory Simultaneously
Just as in academic subjects, students must not only memorize facts but also understand the concepts. Piano students face similar challenges when learning to play by ear and reading music theory at the same time, which requires practice and application of knowledge.
Our Method – Tailored 1:1 Piano Lessons
Enhance Confidence and Mastery Through a Customised Piano Journey:
- Develop strong sight-reading skills for smooth and accurate playing
- Master various piano techniques, including finger independence and pedal usage
- Learn music theory to enhance understanding and interpretation of musical pieces
- Build confidence in performance with regular recitals and mock exams
- Explore different musical genres, from classical to contemporary, to diversify skills
- Prepare for piano exams with structured lessons and tailored practice plans
What’s unique about a 1-to-1 Piano Tuition class versus a Piano Tuition Centre?
1. Personalized Attention
In a 1-to-1 piano tuition class, the tutor can focus entirely on the student’s strengths, weaknesses, and learning style, unlike in a group setting where attention is divided. This tailored approach can help students at all levels, whether in preschool, secondary school, or even preparing for ABRSM piano exams.
2. Fostering a Strong Teacher-Student Relationship
Building a personal rapport with the tutor helps to keep students motivated and engaged. This is particularly crucial for younger learners, such as Preschoolers and Primary School Students, who benefit from a mentor-like relationship that encourages consistent practice and growth.
3. Targeted Lesson Plans
1-to-1 tuition allows for customized lesson plans designed to meet the specific needs and goals of the student. Whether it’s preparing for a school recital in secondary school or a practical ABRSM grade exam, the tutor can focus on the exact areas that need improvement.

Piano Tuition Pricing FAQs
What is the difference between the type of Piano tutors available?
To simplify things, we group our tutors into three main tutor categories:
– Part-Time Piano Tutors – refers to private tutors who doing it part-time. Most of the tutors here are still schooling: A-level graduates, Diploma students/graduates, or Undergraduates. To a lesser extent, there are also University graduates and working professionals offering tuition part-time and they fall under this category. Part-time tutors are the cheapest option for home tuition in Singapore.
– Full-Time Piano Tutors – refers to full-time private tutors who teach as a profession. Full-time tutors may/may not be university graduates but often have significantly more teaching experiences than part-time tutors as they tutor lots of students 1-to-1 as well as take up jobs in tuition centres teaching groups of students in classes. The actual qualifications and experience of a full-time tutor can vastly differ between individuals, hence so does the tuition rate they command.
– Piano School Teachers – refers to ex/current school teachers either from MOE or from private and international schools. Tutors under this category tend to be the most experienced and qualified in private tutoring and thus command the highest tuition rates. Be prepared to pay a premium in order to engage these teachers successfully.
Do I have to pay any agent fees?
Our services are free-of-charge for parents and students. You are only required to pay for Piano lessons conducted. A portion of the total lesson fees usually in the first four weeks of lessons will be allocated to SmileTutor as the agency commission. This is deducted directly from the tutor’s fees, so you do not pay anything extra.
However, there is a 9% GST imposed on the agency commission. For example, if you engage a Piano home tutor for $50 per class for once a week, the agency commission will be $100. Hence, the GST imposed is $9. This is only a one-off payment only and from 3rd lesson onward there is no GST since you pay the tutor directly. The tutor’s fees are not subjected to GST.
To facilitate the process for us to collect the agency fees, you are required to cooperate with us by transferring the allocated agency commission (usually 50% of the 1st month fees) + GST directly to SmileTutor. Thereafter, you will pay the remaining lessons to the tutor directly. Our Tuition Coordinators will inform you of the full payment details and instructions upon lesson confirmation.
Are there any contracts?
There are no contracts and obligations until you agree to engage our private Piano tutors. When any assignment is confirmed, there are guidelines to follow to ensure that both the student and tutor can have a smooth and rewarding experience.
How can I trust the Piano tutors recommended by SmileTutor?
In 2019, we introduced Quality Score™ which is our proprietary system that grades over 50,000 tutors based on multiple factors such as profile completeness, recent job acceptance, track records, parent reviews, and more. With this system, we are able to ensure that parents & students are constantly matched with the cream of the crop Piano tutors in Singapore. Since we have introduced this system, the quality of our private Piano tutors have improved and our numbers of compliments had increased tremendously.
SmileTutor treats the credibility of our tutor profiles very seriously. All suspicious tutor applications or profiles with missing information are immediately investigated and blacklisted. For tutees who wish to personally verify their tutor’s qualifications and identity, you may request that the tutor bring their relevant certificates on the 1st lesson. (We do not to send online documents due to privacy laws). For current school teachers, it is our SOP to remind tutors to bring teacher’s pass on their first lesson as a form of verification to give tutee a peace of mind.

Never have I expected that finding a private tutor can be so easy and quick, even for a niche subject/module! I was once very frustrated and gave up on looking for a tutor on my own, also because of my limited budget. But thank God, Smiletutor is very helpful in finding a good tutor within the budget too! 😀 Service is very very efficient! Got a call back about the tutor on the same day of my inquiry!!! They gave us a chance to even talk to the tutor first to make sure whether she is familiar with the subject. Highly recommended service! Will definitely refer Smiletutor to my friends/ juniors who need a private tutor 🙂 Send my regards to Jessy! (sorry if misspelled)

Is it too early for my child to start learning piano or guitar in primary school?
It’s never too early to start! In fact, Primary School is an excellent time for children to begin learning music. Our tutors specialize in working with younger children, teaching them at a pace that suits their development and ability. Starting early gives your child a solid foundation in music that can last a lifetime.

While it’s not mandatory, having a piano or keyboard at home is highly recommended to ensure consistent practice and progress. If you’re unsure about which instrument to get, our tutors can guide you on the best options for your child’s level.
What are the benefits of learning piano in Singapore?
Learning piano offers numerous benefits, including improved Cognitive Development, enhanced memory, better focus, and stronger discipline. It also fosters creativity, boosts confidence, and can provide an edge in academic and extracurricular achievements

How are the tutors assigned to me?
After making a request via our online platforms (Website, Instagram, Facebook or WhatsApp) or via the phone hotline (+65 6266 4475), our Tuition Coordinators will determine the best available tutor based on your stated preferences and will send you recommendations via SMS.
You can then ask any questions, request to speak with the tutor via conference call, ask for another recommendation or simply confirm the tutor. If you are uncomfortable with any details regarding the newly assigned tutor, you can always request for a different tutor. Our Coordinators will ensure that both parties agree on the lesson details and pricing before confirming the lessons.

Sure, if you have any tutors in mind, feel free to give us a call at +65 6266 4475 and let us know the information of the Maths tutor you are looking for. As we have the most extensive database in Singapore, we may be able to find the tutor you are looking for.
Alternatively, you may view some of our latest available tutors at our ‘View Tutors’ page. From this page you can do some DIY sourcing and indicate your interest directly there. However, do note that the availability of the tutor may not be guaranteed. Our Coordinators will be swift to advice you on the availabilities of the requested tutor and recommend any similar tutors that may be available if needed.
Where are the Piano tuition lessons conducted?
The Piano tutoring lessons will be conducted at a pre-determined location according to your preference (usually at your home). If it is not convenient to have tuition conducted at your home, you may request for the tuition to be conducted somewhere else, such as the tutors home or at a convenient public location such as libraries, cafeterias, hostels, etc.
The location of the tuition lessons should be determined before the confirmation of lessons. Any change in address after lessons have started is subject to both parties approval
How are lessons conducted?
One of the main benefits of private tutoring is that we do not adopt a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. Every Piano tutor has their unique methodology, personality, and teaching style. During the prospecting phase, our coordinators do our due diligence to find out your child’s needs and weakest points in the Piano subject in order to match the most suitable tutor.
Usually, the first lesson is a ‘getting to know’ phase, where tutors will gauge your child’s interest in the subject, current level of proficiency, and spot areas of weakness. From the second lesson onwards, tutors will generally be more prepared to conduct the lessons according to the student’s learning or syllabus.
If you are a more hands-on parent, you can also communicate with the tutor and provide suggestions on which area you’d like the tutor to focus more on (i.e. composition writing). As there are no fixed lesson plans or arrangements, both the clients and tutors are free to discuss and conduct their lessons in any way that benefits the student’s learning.
Can I postpone lessons dates & timings?
Yes, of course. However, all postponements of lessons must be made at least 24 hours in advance of lessons, except for special cases (such as medical emergencies).
For postponement of the first lesson, SmileTutor must be informed via phone call at +65 6266 4475 (Mon to Sun 9am-8pm). A confirmation SMS will be sent to you acknowledging your postponement after the call. However, if you are informing at least 48 hours in advance, an SMS made to +65 9014 4201 will suffice.
Postponements of lessons after the first lesson may be made directly between tutor and tutee.
Please note that failure to make a postponement at least 24 hours in advance may incur compensation to the tutor for time loss (e.g wasted trips). Generally, the compensation amount is 50% of 1-lesson fee.
Can I terminate lessons if the tutor is not suitable?
You may terminate the tuition at any time after the first lesson but must inform SmileTutor at least 24 hours in advance of the next lesson and must pay for all lessons conducted. Terminations made less than 24 hours before the lesson will incur a late charge of 50% of that lesson’s total fee.
Termination Procedure
1. Inform SmileTutor via a phone call to +65 6266 4475 (9am-8pm) at least 24 hours in advance before the next lesson
2. Pay for lessons conducted, half directly to SmileTutor and WhatsApp the receipt to our Finance Dept. at +65 9450 4390
3. Pay the other half directly to the tutor
However, note that once you have confirmed the assignment to book the tutor in quote, there is a binding contract to complete one full lesson and you may only request a change of tutor or terminate the tuition only after that 1st lesson. If you decide to change your mind before the 1st lesson even commenced, the fee for the unfinished first lesson may be charged as an administrative fee.
Will tutors postpone lessons?
SmileTutor does not encourage tutors to make frequent postponements to the lessons. However, we do encourage you to offer some degree of flexibility as tutors are also human and may fall sick or have sudden emergencies from time to time.
If the tutor we assigned to you happen to make postponements more frequently than you prefer, you may wish to communicate with them and remind them to stick to the usual lesson schedule. Sometimes, a simple effort to communicate between both parties can go a long way in avoiding any disruption in lessons or last-minute discrepancies.
If you face further difficulties with your tutor in this area, please feedback to us immediately and we will arrange a new tutor for you.
Can my tutor terminate the lessons?
For termination of lessons, tutors are expected to commit for at least the 4-weeks of tuition. If the tutor backs out of an assignment without a valid reason (e.g. illness) before completing at least 4-weeks of tuition, he/she will not be entitled to receive any tuition fees. i.e. You will only be required to pay 50% of the tuition fees (plus any applicable taxes) directly to the agency.
Unfortunately, we are unable to force tutors to commit for more than 4-weeks. However, we do encourage responsible behaviour and let our tutors know that they should do their best to commit at least until the end of year exams. Most of our tutors follow through.
What about adding of subjects or students (e.g siblings)?
You may wish to try out one subject first and then add more subjects subsequently. Or, when starting the tuition, you may find yourself wanting to increase the frequency of lessons or to engage the same tutor for your other children. In any of these cases, please make your request through the agency in order to stay protected and keep the tutor accountable to the agency.
SmileTutor is not responsible for any engagements made outside of the agency’s knowledge. Hence, tutors and tutees are expected to inform their coordinators of any added lessons or changes to the lessons schedule/subjects/tutees immediately.
How do I feedback to SmileTutor regarding my good/bad experience?
You may email us at Email for any feedback or questions that are not answered under this FAQ.
For private feedback about the agency service, you may contact Rum (Founder) at 97558257 or email him at Rum Email.
We appreciate your help in providing us accurate feedback so as to improve our service and system.

The Rising Trend of Piano Tuition in Singaporean Households
1. A Sign of a Well-Rounded Education
In Singapore, parents value piano tuition for DSA, scholarships, and university applications, as music exams like ABRSM and Trinity College London enhance academic portfolios.
2. Competitive Edge for Future Opportunities
Some parents enroll their children in piano lessons early, hoping they might earn music scholarships or participate in prestigious competitions. Students with Grade 5 Theory or higher can also take O-Level Music in Singapore, an additional academic advantage.
3. Academic and Cognitive Benefits
Learning the piano enhances brain development by improving memory, focus, and problem-solving skills. It also strengthens Mathematical thinking through rhythm and patterns while improving reading comprehension and language abilities..
It’s easy to compare yourself to that one piano prodigy who seems to play effortlessly, but soon, self-doubt creeps in. What started as a few wrong notes can snowball into a fear of failure, turning piano practice from fun to frightening. If not addressed, that fear can stick around, haunting you well into adulthood.
What to Look Out For in Piano Tuition Teachers
With SmileTutor, we’ll help your child hit all the right notes!
Effective Communication
At SmileTutor, we understand that effective communication and patience are key qualities of a great piano tutor. These traits help build a strong, supportive relationship between the teacher and student, creating the perfect environment for learning.
Our piano tutors take the time to listen attentively to each student’s concerns, questions, and feedback. This approach shows that the student’s input is valued, fostering trust and a deeper connection between teacher and student. By actively listening, our tutors ensure that each individual’s learning journey is respected and understood.
Clear communication is also essential for setting expectations. Our tutors are upfront about practice schedules, attendance, and performance goals, ensuring students know exactly what is expected of them. This clarity helps students stay on track, feel confident, and remain motivated throughout their lessons.
At SmileTutor, we emphasize the importance of constructive feedback. Our tutors provide honest, supportive comments that highlight strengths and areas for improvement, helping students grow. We also maintain an open-door policy, encouraging students to reach out with any questions or concerns, creating a safe and nurturing environment where they can thrive.
