COMMON QUERIES
HOW MUCH DO YOU CHARGE FOR LESSONS?
Lessons cost £55 per hour or £30 per half hour.
CAN YOU TRAVEL TO MY HOUSE FOR THE LESSONS?
Unfortunately, due to a busy schedule, it is very unlikely I will be able to travel.
DO YOU HAVE SPECIFIC TEACHING QUALIFICATIONS?
I completed my PGCE in secondary teaching at Reading University. I also have completed grade 8 with ABRSM in piano and cello.
WHAT IS YOUR APPROACH TO TEACHING?
Everyone is different in how they learn. Therefore, I have a range of resources to ensure that all my students are able to reach their full potential.
WHAT WILL HAPPEN DURING THE LESSONS?
Apart from learning piano, I will also cover aural tests, sight reading and a few music theory games. Although these are your lessons, so if you're not keen on one of them, we can just skip them.
MUST I DO EXAMS?
No! I encourage everyone to do exams as I believe it gives you good goals to aim for, however, if you don't want to do them, you don't have to do them.
I'M A COMPLETE BEGINNER TO THE PIANO AND TO MUSIC. I KNOW NOTHING. IS THAT OK?
Yes! We'll just start from the very beginning.
DO YOU DO AD-HOCÂ LESSONS?
Yes, for those students who might travel quite a bit for work, or live busy lives, I do ad-hoc lessons. I will do my best to try and fit in as many lessons as we can.
