The Piano Academy of Ireland plays a significant role in the expansion and advancement of Ireland’s pianistic educational programme contributing to society as it enables students of all ages, levels and abilities to allow music to play an important role in their lives.

With a proud passion for teaching of more than 12 years as a source of quality and excellence in musical pedagogy, our on- going inspiration is found in our students from all corners of Dublin and beyond and in the commitment, energy and expertise of our teachers. We are deeply dedicated, through music education, performance and appreciation, to inspiring and motivating students of all ages, enabling them to shine through music and in turn contribute to humanity.

We find that one-to-one tuition is the best type of tuition to nurture the individual needs of a student as no two people are the same and each will learn in a different way. Each may also have a different goal to aim for and so a specifically designed programme is tailored for each student. Individual tuition is therefore the only way to make best use of the time we have with a student and bring them to where they want to be.

It has always been our intention to offer a complete programme of musical training - a holistic approach to the learning of the piano - which is challenging within the time constraints of a weekly 30 or 45 minute lesson.

Therefore, our group Musicianship classes focus on areas such as aural awareness (inner-hearing work) through singing, the understanding and writing of musical notation from very simple to more advanced and understanding the very important musical structures of scales and chords on which all music is based. These classes fill in some of those gaps of knowledge and in turn, greatly support and compliment the learning at the Piano.

Other areas covered at Musicianship class include the Lives and History of the Great Composers and understanding the various elements of their style of writing, again which helps in understanding the music students are learning with their piano teacher in their one-to-one lessons.
