From the very first lesson, students are encouraged to think, listen, and engage with their instrument as musicians. I pride myself on being a friendly, enthusiastic, and passionate teacher, bringing energy and enjoyment to every lesson.

I encourage students to take pride in their progress, develop independent practice habits, and explore a wide range of musical styles. Lessons cover all aspects of musicianship, including improvisation, reading music, playing by ear, using chord charts, and composition.

Over the years, I’ve helped students achieve a variety of milestones—from writing their first song at 75 to performing in their first school showcase at just 5 years old. My goal is simple: to help every student enjoy the process of learning, build confidence, and stay inspired by the rewarding journey of making music.

Students build a personalised repertoire of six songs they genuinely love, with no genre off limits—from pop and jazz to classical and contemporary. Alongside learning their chosen music, they develop instrument-specific technique and practical music theory.

Every three months, we record their six-song setlist to track progress before selecting a new repertoire that reflects their growing skills and confidence.

This approach keeps learning engaging, encourages self-reflection, and gives students a tangible record of their musical journey. For those pursuing grades, I teach both ABRSM and Trinity syllabuses and maintain a 100% pass rate.

Whether you dream of becoming a piano virtuoso or simply want to play for enjoyment, I can help you set and achieve goals that accelerate your progress. If learning piano is on your bucket list—or something you've always wanted to try—you'll be playing music sooner than you think.

Thanks to modern online learning, you can start your musical journey from the comfort of home. Join the many students who benefit from weekly lessons, daily feedback between sessions, video tutorials, and ongoing support designed to keep you progressing.

Lessons take place in person at my home Studio in Waterlooville, Hampshire or online via Skype.

Younger students are welcome to come with parents/ guardians as I have a sofa inside the studio which they can make use of.
