The app is making an effort to take in students who are learning musical instruments, as well as their parents, who often spend much time and energy being with their children practicing. Having one-on-one piano lessons with teachers online is now possible. They can guide the students on finger movement, hand positioned and playing skills.“Unlike after-school training, which gives lessons mainly on English and math, the piano education market is still developing,” Ye Bin, leader and CEO of The ONE Music Group, Xiongmao Peilians parent company said, adding that there is huge space for growth as the business has not yet become fully developed.However, it remains to be seen whether the business model is suitable, depending on whether users will buy more lessons.“On the other hand, such companies should also provide their teachers with tools(工具) and technologies to improve online classes,” Ye noted.31 .
