Who it's for and when to use it

Use it for new piano students of any age, from a six-year-old beginner to an adult returning after twenty years. The experience question, from "never played" to "more than 3 years", together with whether they read music, tells you which book to open in lesson one.

The piano at home question matters more than families expect. An acoustic piano, a digital piano or keyboard, or nothing yet each changes your advice on practice, and families without an instrument often want your recommendation before lessons start.

Goals cover playing for fun, exams such as RCM or ABRSM, and performing. Lesson length offers 30, 45 or 60 minutes, so families choose up front. Teach several instruments? The guitar and voice forms follow the same pattern.

Tips for better responses

Recommend lesson length by age. Mention in the form title or your reply that young beginners usually start with 30 minutes. Families appreciate the guidance.
Help families without a piano. When someone answers "None yet", reply with what to look for in a first keyboard. It's a helpful first touch, and they start practicing sooner.
Plan exam students early. Students aiming for an RCM or ABRSM exam need a timeline. Ask which grade and which session in your first reply.
Collect consent before recitals. If you post recital photos, send the photo and media consent form when students register.

Make it your own

Adult students? Make the parent step optional, or remove it, and the form works for adult learners.
Studio policies? Send the tutoring policy agreement with your cancellation and make-up lesson rules.
Group piano classes? Use the group class registration for group lessons or summer camps.

Frequently asked questions

What should a piano lesson registration form ask?

It should ask about the student's experience, whether they read music, what piano they have at home, their goals and the lesson length they want, plus contact details and availability. This template asks those 15 questions over four steps.

Why ask what piano the student has at home?

Because practice depends on it. An acoustic piano, a digital piano and a small keyboard all feel different, and students without an instrument usually need advice before they can practice at all.

Does the form cover piano exams?

Yes. The goals question includes exams such as RCM or ABRSM, alongside playing for fun and performing. Students can pick more than one.

What lesson lengths can families choose?

30, 45 or 60 minutes. You can change the options to match what you offer, for example adding 90-minute lessons for advanced students.

Can I edit the questions after I start using it?

Yes. Every question can be changed, removed or reordered at any time, and you can add new ones. When you publish the changes, the same link shows the updated form, so you never have to send families a new link.

Will the form stop spam?

Yes. Bear Forms filters out spam quietly in the background, so real families never have to solve a puzzle or click on pictures of traffic lights before they can send the form.

How much does Bear Forms cost?

Bear Forms costs $4 a month on the Solo plan, or $32 a year. Solo covers up to 30 forms and 1,000 responses a month. Pro is $15 a month or $144 a year for unlimited forms and responses. There's no free plan, but every first payment comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
