Our Approach to Piano Lessons at Rick’s Music World

We believe every student is unique and different in their own way. Therefore, why should lessons be any different? Each piano lesson is tailored to the individual student’s specific interests and needs.
While focusing on foundational elements such as proper technique, reading music, finger position etc., our teachers also help students learn songs they are familiar with. This includes movie theme music, popular songs on the radio, their favorite classical artist etc. This helps keep students motivated and pushing further to learn each week.
At Rick’s Music World, piano lessons are anything but boring! Our friendly, professional piano instructors work hard to make each and every lesson a fun and memorable experience for your child. We offer piano lessons for students of all levels, from beginner to advanced. In addition to providing a fun, nurturing learning environment, your piano teacher will get to know your personal goals and tailor his or her instruction style accordingly. In fact, our highly personalized approach is what makes us one of the top piano schools in the greater Raynham, MA area.

Our Approach to Piano Lessons

Get Started

Piano Lessons Should Be Fun!

We know that an interest in piano may be what first brings you into our school – but having fun is what keeps you coming back! Here at Rick’s Music World, our goal is for every student to LOVE their music lessons as they embark on a rewarding journey of progress and discovery. We put the “fun” in fundamentals!
Our knowledgeable staff blends a high standard of music education with a creative, student-focused approach that gives students space to discover and nurture their passion for music and the piano. Whether it’s your first time at the keys or you’re a seasoned pianist, our teachers are ready to help you progress quickly toward your goals – while having fun along the way.

We Emphasize Healthy Technique

Healthy technique is critical to lifelong enjoyment of the piano. Our first priority is teaching strong fundamentals, including hand, wrist and arm technique, bench position, and pedaling. We believe that full-body instruction is essential to musicianship and safeguards students from injury.
Once the fundamentals are in place, you and your teacher can craft the story you want your music to tell. Our qualified teachers will assist you in developing musicianship and exploring nuance through dynamics, pausing, phrasing, and varying tempos. Learn with us as we infuse elements of music theory and music history into our well-rounded approach to fostering musical excellence.

We Care About Your Musical Interests

There is no one-size-fits-all method of piano instruction. Regardless of ability or prior experience, our teachers take an individualized approach to each of our students – underpinned by detailed individual assessments, a personalized learning plan, and one-on-one guidance throughout your musical journey.
While fundamentals and technique are essential, our ultimate goal is to equip students to begin exploring their own personal musical style and interests. Your teacher will work with you to understand where you want to go, and craft a unique plan to get you there. Whether your style is classical or pop (or anything in between), Rick’s Music World helps students excel in their craft while encouraging the occasional step outside the comfort zone to try something new.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get Started

What Age Should My Child Start Piano Lessons?

The minimum age we recommend a student start piano lessons at Rick’s Music World is 5 years old. For younger students, we recommend an intro to the music program. Starting age will largely depend on the student when it comes to piano or keyboard. So, some students may need to wait longer than others to start. Contact us and we can help determine if your child is ready to start!

Why Take Piano Lessons at Rick’s Music World?

Piano lessons in Rick’s Music World at the Academy provide teachers who instruct on a variety of styles from classical to popular music. Whether you want to learn Bach or Alicia Keys, our teachers are happy to help you become the pianist you want to be.
Our piano faculty will show you the fundamentals of sight-reading, technique and theory, but they will also incorporate your favorite songs into your lessons. You do not have to have a piano at home to take lessons. A simple electronic keyboard with a minimum of 61 keys will suffice for the first 6 months. Our piano teachers have warm personalities and enjoy sharing their love for the piano with you when you take piano lessons in Rick’s Music World.

Our Piano Teachers

All of the teachers at Rick’s Music World hold university degrees in music and are experts in their field. Our piano faculty have received their musical education from such prestigious institutions all over the country.

Do I Have to Know How to Read Music?

No. Beginners are welcome! Our lesson plans aim to educate, engage and inspire students.

Do I Need a Piano to Start Taking Lessons?

No. You do not need a piano to start piano lessons, however, we do recommend having a digital piano keyboard in your home to practice between lessons. Also, keyboards are much more economical and require less commitment upfront when it comes to ongoing maintenance and moving costs.

Are There Piano Recitals?‍

Every parent just wants to know how their child is doing and if they are really progressing. In June and December, many Rick’s Music World students choose to perform in our Spring and Holiday recitals. For our students, these recitals are free and unlike many schools in Raynham, we do not charge recital participation or admission fees.

What Happens At The First Lesson?

That is a great question! Our piano teachers make it a priority to get to know you on a personal level and to become familiar with your personal learning style and musical goals.
Your teacher will ask about your favorite type of music and help you set goals to achieve whatever musical aspirations you (or your child) have. We do not treat every piano student the same in terms of what and how we teach.
A 7-year old having their first lesson will have very different needs than a 57-year old returning to the piano after having had lessons as a child. The main reason to choose Rick’s Music World as your lesson provider is that we are sensitive to the fact that every piano student is an individual.

So, What Are You Waiting for?

If you’re ready to jump into the world of keyboarding, we are excited to match you with a teacher that can get you started on your musical journey.
Nothing will enable you to progress more effectively than a one-on-one partnership with an inspiring piano professional.
Let us help you explore and build your abilities in a setting that is comfortable for you. You never know how far you can go until you take that first step, so get started today!
