PRIVATE PIANO LESSONS
Enjoy top-quality piano lessons in Bournemouth with one of the most experienced piano teachers in Dorset.
Unlock the joy of music through engaging, one-to-one, private piano lessons tailored for all ages from complete beginners to advanced players up to Grade 8 and beyond.
Whether you are aiming to take exams with the Associated Board or Trinity-Guildhall or simply want to play for pure enjoyment, my piano lessons are designed to inspire and nurture your musical journey.
If you are passionate about classical music or eager to explore pop, rock, jazz, or a blend of styles, I can help you choose the approach that resonates with you!
I recommend that piano lessons be attended weekly for a minimum of 30 minutes, especially for younger students. For a more comprehensive session, I also offer 45 or 60-minute lessons, which are ideal for covering all aspects of learning.
How long are piano lessons?
Where will the piano lessons take place?
I teach piano lessons in Bournemouth at my home music studio. Virtual lessons can also be conducted through Skype or Facetime.
My piano lessons are thoughtfully structured to foster a deep understanding of music through a blend of practical and theoretical skills. This comprehensive approach lays a strong foundation for your musical growth, whether you are learning for fun or aiming for piano exams and higher proficiency. No matter your current level, I customise each lesson to ensure you feel comfortable and confident as you progress toward your personal musical goals.
How are piano lessons structured?
While there are budget-friendly options, both acoustic and electric pianos can be significant investments. If you're a beginner unsure about committing to the piano, I recommend starting with a few lessons to see if it’s the right fit for you. Should you decide to continue, I can provide recommendations for pianos that match your needs and budget. In order to excel and enjoy playing the piano, practice between lessons is a necessity!
Do I need my own piano?
I welcome students of all ages, but recommend a minimum age of 6 years old to start piano lessons. At this age, children typically have the necessary motor skills and attention span to benefit from structured lessons. However, I am happy to work with you in assessing your child if they are under 6 years old to determine if they are ready to begin. Each child is unique, and some may show readiness earlier based on their interest and developmental level. We can schedule a trial lesson to evaluate their readiness and ensure that learning piano will be a positive and enjoyable experience for them.
