A Complete Piano Education

Good hand position, posture, scales, arpeggios and finger independence. We build strong technical foundations from the first lesson.

Repertoire

Pieces from the Trinity College London piano syllabus. Students play music they enjoy while meeting the requirements for their grade.

Theory and Musicianship

Reading notation, rhythm, dynamics, tempo and expression. The skills that turn notes into music.

Creativity

Improvisation, chord progressions and simple composition. We help students make music of their own, not just follow the page.

What Aussie Parents Say

AM

Anita M.

Mother of 9-year-old, Sydney

My daughter has been taking piano lessons with TutorExel for 6 months now. She went from not knowing a single note to playing her first Trinity piece confidently. The tutor is incredibly patient and makes every lesson fun.

DL

David L.

Father of 11-year-old, Melbourne

We tried in-person piano lessons but the commute was killing us. TutorExel's online piano sessions are just as effective. My son just passed his Grade 2 Trinity exam and is already preparing for Grade 3.
