John has completely reawakened our daughter’s love of playing the piano. In just a few weeks, he has transformed her enthusiasm and confidence. She now happily spends hours practising and playing simply because she wants to. John teaches through encouragement, inspiration and example. His own playing is extraordinary — full of emotion, character and musicality — and he has inspired our  daughter to bring those same qualities into her own playing. He is patient, kind and quietly encouraging, creating an environment where mistakes are simply part of learning. He hasn’t just helped her become a better pianist — he has reignited her musical fire. We couldn’t be happier to have found him.

John Mark is the most patient teacher and ALWAYS goes the extra mile. Whilst I am a mature student of John Mark’s I thoroughly recommend him for any age group. He is kindness beyond measure. THANK YOU John Mark for all your patience and support. ( I also feel the need to recommend the site as well!! A truly golden find! I have no hesitation whatsoever in thoroughly recommending)

John has been teaching my 14-yo at home working towards grading exams. John is a patient teacher and works with his student's current abilities, emphasising the need to feel the flow of music as much as reciting a piece. John has recommended books and pieces to aid their learning outside of lessons, and has been very reliable and accommodating for lesson times.
