Other Costs of Private Piano Lessons

Be aware that the cost of piano lessons doesn’t include lesson books and materials. Those will be extra. Piano music is a great investment, though — like a book you keep forever. Even the simplest songs can be used again and again for different kinds of study.

Your teacher may also charge a fee to cover the costs of holding recitals, which can be pricey and take a great deal of time and organizational effort.

Some teachers also charge fees for late payment or missed lessons/late cancellations. Be sure to get clear on your teacher’s studio policy when you start lessons.

You’ll also need to factor in the costs of renting or buying a piano (or keyboard, to start), piano delivery, and pitching and tuning.

And, of course, you’ll want to set up your piano practice room so that you can practice efficiently.

The real cost… priceless! :-)

Music education is about so much more than simply playing an instrument!

Piano lessons teach long and short-term goal setting, responsibility, and focus. Not to mention motor skills and hand-eye coordination! And having a one-on-one relationship with a good teacher can be such a joy for kids and adults alike.

Who else gives you such detailed attention and encouragement every single week?

The appreciation of the world of music, the history of music, and other musicians is so beneficial. Even if you or your child eventually decide that playing piano isn’t what you want to pursue, the time spent in lessons has such value!

Considering all the benefits…

…the cost of piano lessons really is a bargain. :-)
