Learning piano is a process that can take anywhere from a few months to several years, depending on factors such as the student’s aptitude, dedication, and the quality of instruction. Beginners who practice consistently and receive regular lessons can expect to learn basic techniques and play simple songs within a few months. However, to become proficient and able to play more complex pieces, it can take several years of consistent practice and study.
As a beginner, it’s recommended to practice piano for at least 15-30 minutes a day. However, it’s important to note that consistency is key in learning piano, so it’s best to practice every day. As you progress, you can gradually increase your practice time to an hour or more a day. Additionally, it’s important to break your practice sessions into shorter, focused sessions throughout the day rather than one long session. This will help you to retain information better and avoid burnout.
Children can start taking piano lessons as early as 4 years old. However, the best age to start lessons will depend on your child’s individual maturity and interest in music.
