About Rhys
Rhys holds a Bachelor of Music degree, where piano performance was his primary study. Alongside his performance training, he took modules specifically to become the best teacher he could be, including instrumental teaching and learning, music psychology, and analysis. He has over a decade of teaching experience, honing his skills and has helped his students engage with the piano, meeting and exceeding their initial expectations. He is a member of the Incorporated Society of Musicians and holds a current DBS certificate.
Getting Started
All new students begin with a short online consultation via Zoom, around 20 minutes, for £6. This is a relaxed conversation to get to know each other, discuss goals and experience, and make sure we are a good fit before committing to lessons. Parents of younger students are warmly encouraged to use this time to ask any questions they may have. The consultation is available to all prospective students regardless of whether lessons will ultimately be online or in person.
Rhys currently has limited availability for new students in person and greater availability online.

Lessons are built around a proactive, structured approach. Rather than reacting to mistakes as they arise, the focus is on developing technique, musical understanding, and confidence together from the ground up. Theory is introduced where it naturally supports the music, not treated as a separate subject. Repertoire spans the full classical tradition, from Baroque through to Classical, Romantic, and Modern, including contemporary and avant-garde music for students who want to explore beyond the standard repertoire. ABRSM exam preparation available, and students have achieved distinctions.
Every lesson ends with a summary session. Together we look at what has been achieved in the lesson and set a clear direction for next time. This celebrates the improvements and progress always feel concrete.
New to Piano?
- A warm and unhurried environment where we explore the instrument together
- Lessons begin with the geography of the piano, the sounds it can make, and how to start producing a natural and comfortable tone
- Technique and musicality are introduced from the very first lesson, not added later as an afterthought
- Note reading is introduced as we go in a manageable way that will build your confidence
- You will always leave knowing exactly what you have achieved and what to focus on before next time
Returning after time away?
- No judgement and no assumptions about where you left off
- The first lesson is as much a conversation as anything else, taking time to listen to your experience, your goals, and what has and has not worked for you before
- Lessons adapt constantly to suit you, rebuilding confidence alongside musicianship and technique
- Many returning students are surprised by how quickly things come back and how enjoyable it can feel with the right support
Younger Learners:
- A patient and encouraging space where children can explore the piano without pressure
- Lessons are engaging and varied, keeping younger students interested and motivated
- Parents play a key part of the journey and are kept informed of progress and what to encourage at home
Advanced Students:
- For students working towards Grade 8, beyond, or preparation for music at university level
- Repertoire and technique are developed in depth, with serious attention to musical detail and interpretation
- A broad classical repertoire is covered, with room to explore less conventional works
- The goal is always a musician who can think and perform independently, not just pass an exam
Online or In Person
Online lessons are available and work just as well as being in the room together. A dual camera setup is used throughout, giving a clear view of the keyboard at all times, so nothing is lost technically or musically. For students with busy schedules, online lessons offer the convenience of learning from your own home without compromising on the quality of professional coaching. In person lessons are also available in East London for those who prefer it. Either way, the teaching is the same and you will

Rhys has been a great tutor for me - I came back to piano as a double bass player, and he made the whole process really easy and enjoyable. He’s super patient, explains things clearly, and always adapts lessons to where you’re at.
I’ve definitely gained confidence thanks to him. Would 100% recommend, especially if you’re getting back into piano :)))I took piano lessons as a child but nothing stuck. I just couldn’t engage with my piano teacher’s teaching style and she actually made me feel quite hassled. In the end, I just gave up on the whole thing. So, when I came to Rhys for lessons in my mid-30s, having not so much as played a note in two decades, my level of ability was very low. As were my expectations for what I could hope to achieve. But Rhys has been very patient and kind. He has demystified a lot of things for me and I’ve actually been amazed at what I’ve been able to pick up under his guidance.
I'm Bill, I came to Rhys as an adult learner when starting out on my Piano journey two years ago and I've made a lot of progress from no experience at all to achieving distinctions in all of my exams !! I'm now working through Grade 3 and he's been helpful every step of the way !!
I started my piano lessons at 7; however, I stopped after a year because I couldn't find a teacher who was engaging. Until I met Rhys 4 years ago, as an adult learner, I can say that Rhys is very patient and thorough in his lessons. He spends time tailoring every class and has helped me improve.
