The fastest way to acquire the language of music for 4 to 5.5 year old children is to learn through the ear.
Group learning is the most ideal style for young children. Being together, they motivate each other while at the same time, create a fun and enjoyable atmosphere for learning.
In the first 2 years of YJC, a parent accompanies the child during lessons so as to provide support and companionship to the child. Immediate feedback regarding the lesson can also be given to the teacher. The parent attends each lesson and participates in lesson activities so that these same activities can be continued at home. It also enables the parent to supervise home practice more effectively. The approach allows both parent and child to enjoy the pleasures of musical activities together and nurture a special bond through music.
Keyboard instruments are the best instruments for children to begin their music study with. Because of the fixed layout of the keyboard, notes and sounds can be identified easily and accurately. Also, the important elements of music such as melody, harmony and rhythm can all be expressed by one child playing at the keyboard.
