Applications for TMU Piano Kids are now closed and will reopen in Fall 2026 for the Spring 2027-Spring 2028 session.
TMU Piano Kids is a laboratory teaching experience for college level pianists who are completing coursework in piano pedagogy with Prof. Kellie Cunningham and Prof. Lauren Mason. Children from our community participate weekly in both individual piano lessons and group piano classes at The 91色情片91色情片 University, under the instruction of university faculty and an assigned student teacher.
Children attend a 45-minute, weekly individual lesson (with a TMU student teacher) scheduled between the TMU student and the Piano Kid91色情片 parents. Lessons focus on studying piano pieces, building proper technique, and reinforcing musical concepts. Children also attend a 45-minute, weekly group class (led by TMU faculty and students) scheduled for a specific day and time throughout each semester. Classes focus on music theory games & activities, music history, performance, improvisation and other creative music making. This unique class facilitates learning music in an interactive context and is one of the primary distinctives of the piano pedagogy program at TMU. It supplements piano instruction in a way that is not often found in the private piano studio.
Applications will next open for enrollment in the Spring 2027-Spring 2028 TMU Piano Kids program in Fall 2026. Children should be approximately 7 years old as of January 2027 and have minimal previous piano experience. Acceptance into the program is partially contingent on the number of university student teachers and is a commitment to participating in all three semesters of piano study, including both weekly lessons and classes as well as daily practice at home. For further information or to apply for the program, email Prof. Lauren Mason at聽.
TMU Piano Kids consists of three consecutive 12-week sessions beginning in a spring semester and continuing the next academic year. Group classes are held on Friday afternoons with individual lessons occurring Mondays through Thursdays. A more detailed schedule of individual lesson and group class dates will be distributed at the beginning of each semester.
Tuition is $500 for each semester ($1,500 over the duration of the program). Payment for an entire semester is due at the beginning of each semester of participation.
It is crucial that each student have an instrument at home on which to practice piano daily. This must be provided by the parent. Each child will be required to purchase a standard beginning piano method with specific details to be given at registration.
