Welcome to
Hello! My name is Jane Lane and I am a professional piano tutor located in Wirral. I offer high quality tuition in a wide range of styles in the area.
I pride myself on making sure I always offer a high level of tuition for all of my students. My lessons are also extremely enjoyable for all.
I also offer online lessons, as well as my normal in-person lessons, for students who are interested in hybrid learning or simply learning from the comfort of their own home.

Get in touch today and start learning the piano!
Lessons are pay-as-you-go, weekly, fortnightly or as suits you.
I welcome advanced players and beginners alike. I will make a lesson plan that suits your needs as a player.
I am a creative musician with a wide variety of musical tastes and influences. I have a particular passion for Chopin and Debussy. By contrast, I thoroughly enjoy pop styles, in particular soul music, and am currently working in the open field of prog rock with some very well known artists.
My last album “Refugee” for the band “Hookstick” was a venture to combine original soul, funk and other styles with modern pop, using virtuoso musicianship in a very light context. The album was released in 2017. I also write and play with the prog group “Fluance”. In addition, I write inventive soundtrack and neo-classical music.
In performance, I am an improviser and can add piano where required to drama activities and also to plays, theatre and pantomime. I can create songs to order for performance by adults or children. Music very much reads and translates the words of my compositions which are highly significant to me – I work mainly with current topics and themes. If you want to enjoy learning the piano, I urge you to get in touch, and am sure I can help you to achieve your goals in a friendly and sympathetic environment.
Acquiring piano skills should be fantastic fun and rewarding – so I teach every aspect of piano playing, including both formal and informal piano, playing by ear, classical studies, composition, songwriting and music arrangement. My approach is friendly and intuitive, as everyone has different musical tastes and aims. In this way I aim to please all students, whatever their final object in learning. There’s certainly never a dull moment!
I can offer one to one, joint lessons or classroom teaching (fully qualified PGCE). My teaching style can conventionally go through grades and theory, or we can opt for pop and creative, the choice is entirely yours. Over the last 20 years I have taught all ages, levels and styles – the target always being fulfilment and musical development. I speak French, Arabic and some German, Spanish, Italian and a little Bengali as well as English of course! So hopefully you will be at your ease!
I have safeguarding certificates, advanced DBS, PLI and my studio has the advantage of CCTV monitoring, so you will see that I take your safety and mine very seriously. Students may opt to learn on a Goetze grand piano or a Privia electronic piano keyboard, and there is also access in my home to a wide range of other keyboards and instruments if students are interested. Songwriting and composition is a particular interest. “Build a band” sessions and classroom music sessions are also available on enquiry. During these, students learn to work together and develop a joint project – one of the main joys of creative music.
Wirral is only a small area so options when it comes to music shops & venues can be quite limited. Here are the couple of shops & venues we do have available in the area. .
Apollo Music. This store is a great all-round store that caters for all types of musicians & are especially helpful if you are a first-time buyer. You can find them on Princes Pavement, Birkenhead CH41 2XY.
Hammer Sound, which is another great shop that caters to a wide range of instruments. If you are looking for a more local store rather than a chain store then this is your best option. They are located on 49-51 Grange Rd W, Birkenhead CH41 4BZ.
The Wro, is probably the best place to be if you are looking for a great bar with live music in the evenings. They have regular live performances throughout the week. The bar is located on Northwest House, Grange Rd, West Kirby, Wirral CH48 4DY.
I'm a professional performer and player who can help you improve your piano skills in no time at all. I will make a lesson plan that suits your ability level and together we will make sure you improve and become a better all round player. For more information, feel free to drop me an email at any time.
[email protected]My lessons are charged at £25 per half hour and £47 per 55 mins.
I take the majority of my lessons from my home teaching space in Wallasey, CH45 5AG, UK. I also travel to students' homes to teach the piano.
I can teach both adults and young learners (4+) in a wide range of genres and styles.
For the best results I would recommend weekly lessons however, some of my students take fortnightly lessons.
At Piano Lessons Wirral a 48-hour cancellation policy is in place meaning any lesson cancelled with less than 48 hours notice will be charged full price.
