About

About

I enjoy meeting students of any age with the desire to take on a new challenge. Specialising in beginner learning, I use a variety of different approaches to ensure more than anything, enjoyment is taken from learning a new instrument.

I have been teaching for a number of years and really enjoy helping students to progress with their learning, regardless of their personal goals. I am happy to support grades or provide challenges for enjoyment. Having worked in schools alongside my teaching, I have experience working with children who find some social and emotional situations challenging, and those who have dyslexia. I feel that music can be an excellent tool to provide opportunities for success beyond the classroom and encourage self-esteem through a new hobby.

I offer both in-person learning from a purpose-built studio where lessons can take place, as well as online piano lessons to students based around the world via Zoom.

Why not book a trial lesson now. Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you would like any further information. I look forward to meeting you soon and helping you with your musical journey, wherever it will take you!
