Can you teach piano with Grade 5?
You don't technically need any qualifications to teach piano as it's not a regulated profession. However I would say the generally accepted minimum is to have at least a Grade 8 standard of performance, not necessarily a Grade 8 exam certificate but to be able to play at that level.
How quickly can you get to Grade 1 piano?
It can take 2 or 3 years to work up to Grade 1. Between grade 5 and 6 can easily take 2 years, and the same for later grades.
