Some students love to play by ear; others want to learn to read standard pieces; still others want to play their favourite pop chords.
We can cater to all of your heart's desires!
We create personalized lesson plans for each student based on their individual needs, goals, and learning style, to help them progress quickly and efficiently.
Once we know where you want to go, and how much time you can put in, we'll get a feel for your their level at the start; your level of reading; and how you're picking up tunes by ear.
And don't worry, you don't need to spend hours a week to make real audible progress- many students progress nicely on 15 minutes a day.
We are dedicated to providing a positive and supportive learning environment where children can develop their musical skills and build their confidence as pianists. Trust us to turn your child into a confident pianist.
