Piano Lessons
Each lesson is tailored to my students' individual needs. For children, I usually only provide half hour lessons, unless a full hour is preferred. I monitor how long my students can cope for - music is meant to be fun. I ask parents to buy their own books at their own cost - everybody has a different learning style. I can recommend good books that I use. Books provide the backbone of learning in my lessons. In addition to the books, I create my own visual resources and activities, or use other teachers' resources - just to add some fun. These additional resources are covered under the cost of my tuition fees. Visual resources include personalised activities and games related to music theory, as well as any particular pieces my students would like to learn to play. Also covered under my tuition fees is a folder or scrapbook for my students to keep all their resources and special pieces safe. I have been teaching students for some time - my students all say my lessons are fun and easy to remember. As with my own piano playing, I teach students to break down their practice into chunks - perhaps playing tricky parts single-handedly or concentrating on small, tricky parts until mastered.

Teaches students aged 5+
Hi I live and breathe music. Having played piano for 50yrs. I have extensive experience as a special needs teacher aide and disability support worker. My son has a disability - which is where my passion lies in teaching and having fun. I have been teaching beginner piano for 16mths.
My lessons can be as long or as short as you like - half or full hour - to suit the needs of my students. I sometimes make my own visual resources. My lessons are a mixture of fun theory activities and practice. I have extensive experience in how people learn, so I break activities down.
I travel to you or teach online.
