# Why NTPPA?

What makes the academy different — credentialed faculty, a real curriculum, and a culture of performance.

Why Choose NTPPA?

## The NTPPA Difference

"

All students may learn how to play the piano well, given the right instruction.

— Dr. Judith Jain, Founder

At New Tampa Piano and Pedagogy Academy, we provide a tailored, concept-based, and graded piano curriculum from qualified faculty. Students are placed in the program that best suits their age and learning needs, and are taught according to how they learn — not a one-size-fits-all approach.

NTPPA deliberately remains a single-location academy so our founder can stay personally involved with every student's journey. Dr. Jain personally conducts a complimentary interview with every prospective student and family to ensure the right match.

#### 🎹 All-Yamaha School

Private lessons are held on acoustic grand pianos. Group classes are held in a Digital Piano Laboratory — a facility typically found only in colleges and universities.

#### 🎓 100% Advanced Degrees

Every NTPPA faculty member holds a minimum of a Master's degree in piano performance or pedagogy. Most hold Doctorate degrees. No exceptions.

#### 📚 Concept-Based Curriculum

Students learn musical concepts at each stage — not just repertoire. Like learning to read rather than memorise, this builds genuine understanding of music.

#### 🎭 Performance Opportunities

Biannual recitals in December and June. Royal Conservatory of Music examinations at the studio. Carnegie Hall performances. Outreach events. Real-world stage experience for every student.

#### 🔍 Personal Matching

Dr. Jain personally meets with every new student and family to assess goals, experience, and learning style — then personally recommends the right instructor and program.

#### 🌱 Single-Location Quality

We don't franchise or grow at the expense of quality. One location means the founder is always present, faculty meet weekly, and every student is known by name.
