What We Do
Why Music Education?
We firmly believe that music has the power to shape more complete lives by cultivating creativity, enhancing cognitive abilities, and promoting emotional well-being.
Music education can help students develop a range of skills that are beneficial in all aspects of life, including critical thinking, creativity, and teamwork. In addition, music education can contribute to character building by fostering confidence, self-esteem, a sense of achievement, resilience, and discipline through practicing and performing.

Here's what parents say about us
Taken from Google Reviews
“My daughters joined The Music Circle 2 years ago and they have blossomed musically under the tutelage of the teachers. Clarence, Tee and their team's commitment to nurturing musical interest and appreciation in the children is evident.
I would definitely recommend The Music Circle to anyone looking to develop musical ability and appreciation in their children.”
Clara Chew

My younger daughter started her journey of learning music through fun and games and activities and began her piano lessons recently. All in all, their learning experiences have not been the classroom style that is typical of traditional music school where examination is the objective...”

“My 4 children came to The Music Circle as bumbling, clumsy instrument learners. We had not been making much progress for some years with their previous teachers. Hence I took the plunge one day and made the switch. Most importantly, the teachers have re-kindled my children's interest in music, through their patience, care and creativity...”

“My daughter has been taking music classes in TMC since early 2021, for both piano and group music classes. It has not been easy for Clarence and team to teach during the Covid period but they have managed to overcome numerous difficulties to keep the classes going. Based on the 2 years my daughter is been with TMC, I would highly recommend TMC to parents who would like their children to grow their love in music...”

Both my kids have been attending for several months and really enjoy their time here...”
