This program has been specifically designed to impact the rising generation of kids. It presents a fun and inspiring way for children to learn to play the keyboard, minus the pressure of music grade examinations.
Classes are taught in groups of 4 to 6 in 60 min sessions for children aged between 7 to 12. Electronic keyboards are used for it's playing ease over acoustic pianos. The many sounds and features on electronic keyboards will also help maintain the child’s interest.

NOTE: Should Believer Music Coaches find any student mismatched in any particular module, we reserve the right to transfer the student to another class after the first session to optimize the learning experience.
Is there an age limit?
We only accept registrations from ages 7 -12. We will channel students to classes of compatible age groups whenever possible.
What will be covered during the 9 weeks?
As opposed to the conventional note-reading classical method, we will focus on the foundational concepts of music for students to flow and minister freely in worship: Rhythm Fundamentals - Basic Scale Construction - Basic Chord Construction - Song Application. Another main objective of Believer Music is to raise up a new generation of worshippers who know their God and will carry out great exploits. The thematic focus is to gear students to connect with the heart of God.
Why are there no exams for your courses?
The Believer Kids Keyboard Program has been designed as a light-hearted, pressure-free environment for children to learn in. Keyboard students normally do not take music grade examinations. However, we do adopt methods of providing incentives and targets to keep students motivated right up till the advance courses.
Are we (parents) allowed to sit into the classes?
In the desire to create a more independent learning environment for your child, parents are not allowed to sit in with the class.
How can I help my child to enjoy the lessons?
1. Ensure the child has time for practice sessions.
2. Encourage your child as much as possible. (E.g. sing and worship along with them as they play)
3. Avoid negative criticism.
4. Make sure your child knows that you consider learning music a commitment.
5. Enrich their worship lives with worship playlist etc.
