It holds a Google rating of 4.6 out of 5 across 123 reviews — a robust sample that provides reasonable confidence in the rating.

Prospective students or parents should enquire about level and syllabus fit — whether that is beginner, grade-based practical exams (such as ABRSM or Trinity), or leisure-focused study. It is worth asking whether lessons are available in a group format or as one-to-one sessions, as this affects both pace and cost. BizIQ Academy is listed as operating islandwide, so do clarify whether instruction takes place at the Orchard Road centre or whether other arrangements are available. Confirm term commitment lengths, any trial class options, and whether lessons can be attended in person or online.
To take the next step, reach out to BizIQ Academy via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form to ask about current availability, instrument or programme options, and lesson format before committing to a term.

I recently attended the Generative AI for Video Creation course by Biz IQ Academy, together with my husband, and it was an excellent experience. Our trainer, Jason, was incredibly knowledgeable and patient throughout the session. He explained complex concepts in a way that was easy to understand and guided us step by step. Thanks to his teaching, we were able to create videos using AI right after the course. I even managed to compose a song with AI when I got home, which shows how practical and empowering the lessons were. I truly appreciate Jason’s dedication and expertise. This course has opened up new creative possibilities for us, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in exploring AI for content creation.

To set a backdrop, I had just attended a course through another academy 2 weeks before coming to Biz IQ, and that academy set a pretty high benchmark. To start off, I didn’t understand why Biz IQ had to collect a $30 deposit to secure the seat, especially since I’d submitted my Skillsfuture funding claim successfully and provided the proof. Throughout the process, they gave no information on how to claim this deposit back. Hence, I set foot to their office on the 3rd and final day to inquire, only to be told to retrieve the deposit in cash (no PayNow) at the end of the day. I’m inclined to believe (looking at all the courses offered there), that more than a handful of learners could have forgotten and left their deposit unclaimed. Before my course started, I was already vexed. First, one of their staff called me at 8.46pm (that’s right, not a typo) a week before the course to confirm my attendance. I picked up the phone and told her I was sent the address without the unit number, and she said it will be texted to me later (I was puzzled). 2 days later, I received a WhatsApp from Biz IQ to confirm my attendance again. I said “Yes” and asked for the unit number, but received no reply. Another 3 days later, I received yet another WhatsApp message from Biz IQ to confirm my attendance for the 3rd time! And again, no unit number on the WhatsApp message! Sure enough, I could not locate their training venue when I arrived on Day 1, and that’s because they were renting a co-sharing space on level 3 (I did not expect that). I was lucky to bump onto a Student attending the same course and he showed me the way. Later I discovered their office is on the 2nd floor, and it didn’t even say Biz IQ, it says “Open Ground”. OMG….I would have searched high and low for Biz IQ. Again, my experience with the first academy was smooth sailing compared to this confusion. Then I discovered why I wasn’t notified of the unit number. That’s because they added the learners onto a group chat and shared it through the chat. But I disallowed non-contacts adding me onto Group chats to avoid Spam (come on, this is becoming the norm). The person who failed to add me did not bother to text me separately! Here comes the unacceptable part. Per the instructor, 17 pax signed up, but 16 showed up on Day 1. They only had 6 tables that fit 2 comfortably. Prakash, one of their staff, whom I noticed was just very focused on taking attendance throughout the 3 days, did not take any initiative to solve the problem (and don’t get me started why we had to take attendance using SingPass and a separate paper attendance separately for Biz IQ twice every day). Hence, I asked for another table. It came and the 2 ladies thanked me for it. So we fitted 14, and guess what? 2 other learners have to be tucked onto a corner of 2 tables to co-share the table space. At $1200 before GST for the 3-day course, this is totally unacceptable! Other little annoyances: Day 1 started late due to poor preparation (short of tables, inadequate power extensions, unclear location etc); Course starts at 9am, but centralised AC starts at 10am (you go figure); No free coffee/tea/snacks (all payable for co-share space); Need water? Make your way down to level 2. Urgh! ; Need to use the toilet before 9.30am? It’s a one-way traffic (access cards needed at the co-share space). The way back is a long detour. Finally, I personally find the course material is a stretch for 3 days. None of the useful A.I prompts shared in the course are in the notes (which is just so-so), this is a letdown. On the 3rd day, we were just sharing each other’s project one by one, followed by the assessment. A foreigner who paid the course by herself left midway through the 3rd day, obviously realising there’s no value to stay any longer (I hope she collected her $30 as a consolation).

Very centrally located, comfortable classrooms, professionally run set up. The course was a good learning with the instructor who really made it interesting. She was helpful in answering all questions and ensured we understood the content. The sessions had tea and lunch break which were well timed. Nice ambience to the whole set up and professionally handled. Going for other courses with them as I enjoyed learning. Thank you!

Am writing in to commend an Administrative staff member by the name of "Kai". Ran into a bit of problem and could not attend the first session of a 2-Day Photography course which started on Sunday (23 Nov). As I had just completed a 3-day video editing course one day before, the course content of the 1st day course on picture composition will somehow overlap with that for the photography course. So I was quite confident that I would be able to catch up if I join back the class on coming Sunday and took a make-up class for the 1st session, just like what one of my previous course mate did for the video editing course. (Understood that it was a requirement by government if one would like to use the Skills Future credits) However, I was "kicked out" of the class due to some administrative guidelines from the academy (cannot absent for >25% of the course duration), I tried to contact the people to get them to relook into my special case. I was so glad that after trying to contact 2 admin staff members in the chat group and failed, I was able to find "Kai"! Kai was a breath of fresh air in terms of his professionalism and his 'resilience' and flexibility - Instead of just stating that this is the company's policies that a participant would have to do the sessions in sequence and that the classes that would be possible for make-up on coming Thursday and Friday were full with 11 on the waiting list, (meaning "sorry, just too bad, you will have to wait for the next run in Jan 2026"), Kai empathized with what I had gone through and my wish to be with my friend for the course plus the fact that this was a lull period for me. He was willing to go that extra mile to try to see what he could do to help me in reinstating into the course and to continue to use the Skills Future credits to fund for the course. Other administrative staff members would just "brush" it aside and let it be, but he bothered to try and come back to me at 3 different times, each time with another proposal when it was not a desired one. This was why I told myself that I must definitely spend time to write a review for someone whose strive for excellence in service standards sets himself WAY ABOVE the rest and is a GREAT ROLE MODEL for the rest of the pack. His pure heart of GOLD to try and try, just to help this company to retain this customer is really HIGHLY COMMENDABLE. Having said that, I would also like to thank Biz IQ Academy for willing to listen to my case and eventually, gave a solution that is a win-win solution. Its flexibility to deal on a case-by-case basis and ability to have good quality trainers (from my earlier video-editing course with Mr Shawn Wong) are all reasons for me to recommend this academy.

I really enjoyed Andrew Chew’s mobile videography course. He teaches in a clear, practical way that helps you understand and apply each technique right away. The sessions were engaging and full of useful insights, and I could see my skills improving as I practised. I finished the course feeling more confident with shooting and editing on my phone, and truly inspired to create more videos. Definitely recommend this course to anyone looking to level up their mobile videography.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does BizIQ Academy charge per session?›
BizIQ Academy's specific per-session rates are not publicly listed, so you will need to contact them directly for a quote. In the Singapore music school market, private one-to-one lessons typically range from S$40–80 per 30-minute session for group-level teachers and S$80–150 or more for instructors with formal conservatory training or extensive examination coaching experience. Monthly packages and term fees are common alternatives to pay-per-session arrangements and often work out at a lower effective rate. Ask whether a trial class is available and whether there is a separate fee for it. Also confirm if there are additional costs for materials, examination entry fees, or music books. Sibling discounts or multi-lesson package rates may be offered. See the full Music Schools cost guide for Singapore →
Can I try a class before committing?›
Many music schools in Singapore offer a trial lesson so that both the student and the instructor can assess whether the teaching style, pace, and programme level are a good match. For younger children in particular, a trial session helps gauge engagement and comfort with the teacher before committing to a term. When attending a trial, pay attention to whether the lesson is pitched at the right difficulty level, how the instructor responds to the student's existing skills, and whether the overall atmosphere feels encouraging. Ask BizIQ Academy directly about their trial class policy, whether there is a charge for it, and how it is structured — some schools apply the trial fee towards the first term if you enrol.
What are the tutors' credentials at BizIQ Academy?›
Instructor credentials are not listed in BizIQ Academy's publicly available information, so it is advisable to ask directly before enrolling. Relevant qualifications to look for in a music teacher include a diploma or degree from a recognised conservatory or music institution, a strong grading examination record (such as ABRSM Grade 8 or above, or a performance diploma), and experience teaching students at the level and examination syllabus relevant to your child. For examination-track students, confirm whether the instructor is familiar with the specific board — ABRSM, Trinity College London, or others — and has a track record of preparing students for those assessments. Years of teaching experience and any specialist areas (early childhood music, adult beginners, specific instruments) are also worth clarifying.
