Piano for adult beginners
I provide an encouraging and supportive environment in which adults can acquire a new skill.
This is a great chance to carve out a corner in your life, that’s just about you, it gives you a break from work and family and allows you to focus on something fresh.
Adult learners are motivated by the progress they make week after week. A private Facebook group is set up to share with other adult learners what they’re working on, and to form a small community where you can encourage each other.
Home education
I offer a programme for those being educated at home.
This programme takes an all-encompassing approach, including learning classical piano, jazz piano, music theory and composition.
Students are also introduced to various composers and characteristics of various genres and music periods. Lessons can be in person, online or a combination of the two.
Video lessons
Beginners learn to read music and play their favourite pieces with a bite sized breakdown of each step using a combination of short videos and handouts.
Lessons are divided into three terms, each term ten video lessons are sent to students, one video a week.
At an extra cost students are offered the option to send videos once a week to show their progress and receive feedback on a pdf file or in a video aid tailored to that students specific needs.
A group recital is offered on Zoom at the end of the summer term.
