Marina - Your piano teacher

Hi, I’m Marina 😊 I am a professional piano teacher with over 20 years of experience helping children and adults learn piano with confidence, enjoyment, and strong technique. Whether you are a complete beginner, returning to piano, or preparing for ABRSM/Trinity exams, I’ll guide you step by step in a clear and supportive way so you can make real progress and feel good about your playing. I have taught in Cardiff, London, and internationally, both online and in person. My students range from young beginners to adult learners, and I always adapt lessons to suit each individual. Alongside teaching, I am a performer and accompanist, and I bring real musical experience from solo performamces, jazz bands, choirs, international choirs and community music projects into my lessons. My focus is simple: strong technique, musical expression, and helping you feel confident and relaxed at the piano. I am a member of the Musicians Union (MU) and the Incorporated Society of Musicians (ISM), and I hold a full DBS check. If you are looking for a supportive professional teacher who will help you make steady progress and enjoy your music, I would love to work with you 🎹 Please get in touch to book your first trial kesson. 😊
