Piano lessons at a glance

My teaching approach is entirely based around the student. If they would like to just start playing, learn basics, learn songs or go for grades and exams I will help them through that process. I use a variety of different tools to convey concepts to the student, I use PDF’s of exercises and concepts I have created, for example technical exercises or music theory. I use metronome apps to set tempos whilst we practice. I use more traditional styles also, this variance of methods caters to many different learning styles. I am extremely patient and positive with my students, it is especially the case with children, witn whom I have lots of experience teaching in person and online. My lessons cater to a wide audience of 10+ students including kids, adults, beginners and intermediate learners, helping them develop a strong foundation and grow their skills with confidence.
