I enjoy teaching people of all ages and abilities. My youngest pupils are just six years old and the eldest, well past ‘retirement’ age.

Piano lessons are given weekly, on a one-to-one basis and normally last for 30 minutes. Lessons can increase to 45 minutes as students become more advanced.

All lessons are taught on an upright Yahama acoustic piano in a dedicated music room.

My approach to the lessons is informal, encouraging and enthusiastic. It is important to me that students feel they are progressing and enjoy their piano playing experience. Everyone is different and I shall tailor lessons to each individual student.

I am very happy for parents to sit in on lessons. I think it is particularly useful in the early stages of learning, as it will help you guide and support your child whilst they are practising at home.

Twice a year, children and young people have the opportunity to play at a concert for parents and friends.
