My children, aged 14 and 16 really enjoy studying Piano with Alexander for many years. Although my children never wanted to do any exams, they have enjoyed passing a few ABSRM grades as well as playing Piano for fun and shall be doing so for the rest of their lives. I am most grateful to Alexander who has always found the best songs and other materials, tailor-made for my kids and motivated them at all times!
Superb teacher, really recommend him to anyone!I have really enjoyed studying Piano with Alexander for a number of years. Between 2005 and 2011 I have progressed from a complete beginner through to approximately Grade 5/6 standard. I found Alexander to be a really committed, patient teacher with lots of enthusiasm, passion and creativity in his work as a music teacher. I really recommend his services to anyone, particularly adult beginners and intermediate.
