Is a 200-step piano class really expensive
I heard a parent complain from a friend: "how can it be so expensive for a piano teacher to spend more than a thousand dollars on a piano teacher and even a famous piano teacher for 45 minutes
When you hear that, you look at it from the point of view of many parents: “these prices do scare away some of the people who want to learn the piano.” but that doesn't mean that it's unfair。
Many spend hundreds and thousands of dollars watching a performance, but not a lesson for their children. Everyone has heard the phrase: “ten minutes on stage, ten years on stage”, and the actors on the stage, as well as the teachers in the classes, are behind the results of her previous decade or two。

Learning costs
First of all, it is not cheap to learn music, especially by taking a professional path. A piano is very valuable in itself, and then the cost of classes (from the children to the adults), academic exchanges, such as exams, competitions, tours, university exams, further studies, etc., is very high。
Each piano teacher's level of performance and teaching experience has been the subject of years of study for decades or decades. The cost of tuition, hard work, time and hard work is even more incalculable。

Experience and professional costs
Secondly, let's look at the experience and professional costs of piano teachers. Each piano teacher has to go through a long period of learning and experience prior to the formal beginning of his or her class, including the preparation of lessons for the piano teacher, the practice of the piano, the teaching of studies, the study of solutions to the different problems of each student, the study of how he or she should be taught in the simplest way, making it easier for the student to grasp them ... These are all time and effort required。
What the piano teacher talks about in his class is simple, music, hand styles, etc., but they are drawn from his experience and expertise. Moreover, in order to be a good teacher, they have to devote more effort to learning about each member in order to be able to adapt and to be able to achieve faster and greater improvement。

Learning hardware costs
Learning hardware costs are piano and maintenance costs. Not to mention the current high-quality piano, even if it was a normal piano 20 or 30 years ago, it would cost about 34 thousand, equivalent to 340,000, and the annual cost of the piano's maintenance and tone, which, taken together, would be a considerable sum, and would be the cost of maintaining a piano。
What is more, the cost of piano music and materials for the piano teacher's work, including learning the piano environment, teaching hardware, software, etc., which does not require effort and effort? Together, these already exceed the cost of a piano lesson。
In the eyes of many, piano teachers are labelled as easy to work and easy to pay, but only the piano teacher himself knows how much it costs to be a piano teacher。
In fact, every good piano teacher has a long, if not very difficult, period of time, and not everyone has the option to last, and many do not see the bitterness behind the piano teacher. When you don't know the piano teacher, you say, “it's simple, just teach it, we don't have to be so professional”. In fact, the piano teacher's “show it all” is responsible for the energy, health, physical, intellectual and even life。
