The most accessible way to learn an instrument
For as little as £15 per session, our students can experience highly personalised lessons that cater to their needs and their experience. We work with British and international tutors towards delivering the best possible remote teaching at the most affordable prices found anywhere else in the UK.
Your tutor will arrange sessions on Zoom or Skype at any reasonable time that is convenient for you, as often as you wish, whether its once per week, twice per week, or once per month. After the 1st session, your tutor will agree on a progress plan with you, and will work with you or your child to achieve their goals.
The lessons will be tailored to each student’s specific needs and objectives and will be highly personalised, to ensure the optimal combination of learning and having fun!
97% of our students continue with their recommended tutors after the first session
'My daughter is very happy with her teacher and she has made a tremendous progress since starting her lessons.'
Anne T, 37, London'This is great value for music learning, as in addition to the private instrumental lessons you get lots of complimentary online courses and various events'
Kateryna S, 25, LondonHaving the right tutor is everything
One of the things that makes learning with Lycaeum better is the tremendous amount of care we take when we select the relevant tutor for each student.
Rather than asking students or parents to take a shot in the dark by selecting a tutor based on an online profile, we will instead invite to speak to us about what you or your child likes about music, what your or their experience has been (if any) and what you wish to achieve.
Based on this, and anything else you might want to tell us, we will recommend you the tutor that we believe will best fit the profile and help you achieve your goals. 97% of our students continue learning with their recommended tutor after their first lesson, and 86% are still learning with them after 12 months!
Get started
If you book at least 4 lessons and you don’t wish to continue after the 1st session, you will get a full refund!
We work with the best
All our tutors are professionals or late stage students from London’s top conservatoires, such as the Royal Academy of Music and the Royal College of Music, and are all DBS checked, so you know you will be in very good hands!
In order to teach for Lycaeum, our tutors must first pass a series of thorough personal checks and interviews, and show the relevant experience and expertise not only as professionally trained musicians, but also as tutors in various educational settings. Additional skills beyond their ability to play are a must, such as patience, organisation, and very good empathetic listening.
We only work with the top 10% of tutors in London!
What else we offer
Private lessons at home
While learning piano through our online sessions is perfectly viable, our private at home lessons cost from only £38/session – providing you with an even more detailed and guided learning experience.
Your tutor will visit your home at any reasonable time that is convenient for you, as often as you wish. The lesson times are flexible and amendable, with only a 24h notice period being required.
Online group classes – as featured on the BBC!
All our students taking private lessons benefit from discounted or even free access to our unique complementary courses that explore music in-depth: where it came from, and where it’s heading. Explore such topics as:
- Film Music
- Music in a Time Machine

Our online courses are available to everyone, and are designed for learners at all stages in their musical journeys, including those with no experience – no instrument required!
