OUR LESSONS
One to One or Duo Lessons
Pathways specialises in individually tailored lessons—because no two learners are the same.
We offer private and duo lessons in piano, voice, guitar (acoustic and electric), bass, drums, violin, saxophone, clarinet, composition, and music theory. Every program is designed to meet the needs of beginners through to advanced students, children through to adults, hobbyists through to aspiring professionals.
​
We begin by understanding your goals and dreams, then craft a personalised plan that supports your short-, medium-, and long-term musical journey. Whether you’re learning for pure enjoyment, working toward exams, preparing for gigs, or wanting to master your favourite songs, your lessons are shaped around what matters most to you.
Learning styles differ, and we honour that.
Many of our adult students choose to skip the simple one-handed beginner tunes and jump straight into something richer and more rewarding—pieces that might take a little longer but deliver that incredible “I can actually play this” moment within just a few weeks.
​
Children often flourish with a more structured pathway, where they can track progress clearly across the term and parents always know what’s happening. Teens usually need a mix of challenge, creativity, and freedom. With one-to-one teaching, we can adapt to each student’s learning style—supported by our experienced teachers and a thoughtful, holistic approach.
A key part of our pedagogy is our own published curriculum.
Piano students benefit from our Master the Piano method — a beautifully designed, modern learning pathway created and authored by our Director. Filled with QR-linked video tutorials and high-quality resources, it gives students consistency, clarity, and a truly premium learning experience. Our younger students often begin with our exclusive Little Keys and Junior Keys books, and all students enjoy access to hundreds of pages of original Pathways materials.
​
Communication with families is important to us. Studio parents enjoy regular face-to-face chats, while school-based families receive emailed lesson notes twice each term so they’re always in the loop.
​
And private lessons don’t have to stay private.
Students can join our masterclasses, jam sessions, band rehearsals, and Performing Arts Program to broaden their skills, build confidence, and experience the joy of making music with others.
​
Because variety is the spice of life — and music education is no different.
​
We know we’re doing our job well when our students’ eyes sparkle. No matter the age!​​
