Welcome to
Hello! I'm Graham Senior, a piano teacher from the Coventry area. I am passionate, enthusiastic and keen to teach beginner to intermediate students of all ages.
I have been playing piano for over fifty years and have been consistently teaching for the past twenty. I completed my PGCE in the early 90's and have since loved teaching students of all ages.
I welcome students with playing abilities that range from beginner to intermediate. I really enjoy showing a beginner musician how to take their first steps on their individual musical journey and help guide them towards achieving their goals.

I make it my mission to ensure every lesson is both fun and informative for all of my students, regardless of age or ability. Whether you're training to play as part of a worship band or simply learning for fun, I will tailor our lessons to fit your individual needs and goals.
Whilst always having a passion for teaching, I also have extensive experience as a performer and composer, and this additional knowledge has proven invaluable when teaching my students as I can provide insight into working in the industry as a musician.
Lessons are pay-as-you-go, weekly, fortnightly or as suits you.
I welcome students at all ages with playing abilities within the beginner and intermediate range. I have always been passionate about ensuring music is accessible to all, particularly those at a young age, as this is when I started my own musical journey.
I have been playing piano since the age of six, which was over fifty years ago. Since then, there was never a doubt in my mind that music would play and important role in my life. From a young age, I began teaching as well as writing and performing musical theatre and contemporary worship.
My qualifications include an undergraduate degree in Geography and French, which was followed by a Postgraduate Teaching Certificate (1993). My own compositions include choral works, contemporary worship music, songs for a pantomime and a musical which has been performed in Sussex and Surrey since 1988.
Since 2000, I have had anything between two and six students on my books at all times. Most start with me as beginners and, within a few years, have progressed to grade 3 standard.
Whilst many of my students wish to take grades, I am also happy to offer lessons to students who do not. I have taught many adults who are simply looking to play for fun and learn a new skill. I have always wanted music education to be accessible to all, regardless of age.
My musical background has allowed me to explore and enjoy a wide range of genres and styles, from classical choral music to contemporary popular music. I will always ensure to devise a syllabus that suits your individual musical preferences, whilst also being informative and productive.
As I have a lot of experience within the realms of performing as part of a worship band, I have worked with many musicians to help them achieve this goal too. If this is something that interests you, I will make sure to help you develop and grow in that direction.
