MUSIC SESSIONS

music is the language of the heart。

MINIM PHILOSOPHY

where words fail, music speaks

Children are naturally drawn to music.
This makes music a great way to supplement and amplify a child's development and learning. Our programs bring out the music in every child, and play an important role in their social, emotional, and academic development.

How did you first memorise THE ABC?

Just like how music helped you learned the alphabet, we harness music to help your child learn the following hard and soft skills while having fun!

Literacy

Rhyme and Poetry through songs.
Vocabulary building through songs and songbooks.
Experimenting with different vowels and consonants.

Numeracy

Number and sequence recognition through songs.
Spatial awareness through understanding musical structure and movement in music.

Sensorial Sensitivity

Sensorial development through exploring different vibrations produced by different sounds and instruments.

Fine Motor Skills

Exposure to different instruments and different forms of playing.
Music and movement through finger play.

Gross Motor Skills

Music and movement through dance.

Emotional Skills

Expressing emotions effectively through music and participating confidently through music.

Social Skills

Turn taking, teamwork, voicing out ideas and opinions, listening to others.

Physical Coordination

Improving physical coordination through dance and movement.
Singing and playing an instrument.

Creativity

Engaging imagination to create sounds and melodies to call your own.

VOICES

happy parents and educators

We give minim the highest recommendation

"It is clear upon the first meeting that minim is very good with teaching young children. Learning was made fun and engaging. The sessions inspired confidence and encouraged my son to be creative and challenge himself. He never wanted his hour-long piano session to end; he always wanted the teacher to stay longer and teach him more. It was a such a joy watching our son’s passion for the art of music grow in a caring and nurturing environment."

about the team

A warm welcome to the Minim family! It is our pleasure to have your child join us for music lessons and our honour to serve the community through quality and engaging music education.

 We are passionate educators who have been working in the early childhood sector before becoming music teachers ourselves. We strongly believe that if the children are engaged, they will learn. With this in mind, we make a consistent effort to understand the interest of the children and incorporate it into our lessons. We also understand that every class has different needs and work together closely before and after your child’s lessons to brainstorm on effective ways to extend your child’s learning. Through this process, it is our pride and pleasure to see your children grow to be confident, creative and expressive learners in the classroom. 

We look forward to creating lots of fun, memorable and musical experiences with you and your child!
