My focus is to help students 'enjoy' the process of learning to play the piano, because I believe we are more likely to learn when we feel happy and relaxed. I am classically trained and remember the hard work and dedication it took to achieve my goals. The whole process of learning an instrument is a journey which can never be truly completed, but it can, and certainly must be enjoyed, and personal successes and milestones are to be celebrated. I have a nice light and spacious studio set in my garden which is warm and comfortable overlooking a large pond, and welcome students of all ages, complete novices or returners. Parents are welcome to sit in on the lesson if they wish. I teach classical piano and improvisation techniques, which together encompass a huge range of music from the baroque period through to the modern era. I generally offer lessons of 30 minutes, to 1 hour, but am happy to offer 20 minute sessions if required.
