Essential Information
I teach adults and children. Lessons are weekly, in my studio.
Learning to play an instrument takes time, and brain research has shown that downtime is when the consolidation and organisation of new information takes place. Can you make the space in your/ your child’s life for this? If so, it might be time to begin! Please contact me so we can discuss how it works.
Parents do not need to have musical experience, but should come prepared to sit at the piano and learn a bit, to better help their children at home.
Parents and practice
At lessons, I set practice points and goals. Parents help their child repeat the practice points at home. To do this, parents must attend lessons and take notes. Eventually, music students can practise on their own, but in the beginning, the Suzuki Method relies on the mutually-supportive triangle of parent, child, and teacher.
RECORDINGS
PIANOS
I can share a voucher for a £500 discount from Mark Goodwin Pianos—please contact me for this.
Pianos need expert care—Gavin is my technician for tuning and more.
FOOTRESTS and BENCHES
Children need proper seating—here’s the bench I use in my studio.
Children also need their feet supported—click here for one option.
