My teaching methodology is based on encouraging students to enjoy playing and learning piano, whilst also progressing. For beginners, I use a mix of a beginner's piano book , teaching well known songs, and engaging games to teach students the basic concepts of theory and piano playing. For grades, I use my own as well as my student's experience in ABRSM exams to give in depth training of scales, aural tests, sight reading and playing a range of musical pieces.
I am a young, experienced piano and maths tutor, who is enthusiastic about encouraging children to enjoy music and piano. I have 4 years of experience in piano tutoring children from the age range 6 to 13, from beginners to grade 5 level with my students achieving two merits and performing highly on ABRSM exams. I received my merit in Grade 8 piano , and Grade 5 music theory qualification, in addition to working towards the ARSM diploma.
