About Our Academy

The Starlight Piano Academy was born from a simple dream—to help every child discover the magic of music. We strongly believe that inside every young heart, there’s a melody waiting to be found. And all it takes is the right approach… the right key… to unlock it.

Every child here is met with discipline, encouragement, and belief in their unlimited potential! We believe true excellence begins early—with patience, structure, inspiration, and a big heart! Piano is the tool, but character is the goal, remember!

Our lessons are built on the strong foundation of a traditional music school—where children learn solfeggio, music theory, and music literature—but they are wrapped in warmth, encouragement, interactive games and creativity. We guide each student not just to play the piano, but to feel the music, to tell their own stories through sound, and to carry that joy into every part of their lives!

Building Character Through Music

At The Starlight Piano Academy, piano is the tool, but character is the goal. Through refined private instruction tailored to every student, we're shaping not just musicians, but leaders, thinkers, and kind souls who will make a positive impact on the world.

Piano Lessons

Comprehensive musical education tailored for young students

🎹

Individual Lessons

At The Starlight Piano Academy, every individual lesson is designed to combine rigorous musical education with engaging, personalized learning. The teacher comes directly to each student, equipped with exclusive Starlight Academy materials.

Students receive books tailored to their level, printings, notebooks for dictations and tests, creative project kits, stationery, couple of amazing games and diary to track their progress. Our structured homework and progress tracking system ensures that each child advances confidently while staying motivated and organized.

Lessons guide students through a complete musical experience: they explore a composer's life and works, watch illustrative videos, and complete interactive quizzes and games to reinforce understanding. Then, students bring the music to life by performing the composer's pieces. After that, we wrote weekly test based in what we learned. Every lesson concludes with summary activities, games, and Q&A sessions, helping students consolidate their knowledge, develop critical thinking, and cultivate a lasting love for music!
