About Me

After having reached grade 4 at age 12, I quit my piano studies finding it difficult to be interested. 9 years later, I started developing a deep interest for the piano again and have been practicing and playing intesively (4-5 hours) everyday since.

I aim to provide accessible, flexible and interesting classes for every student. I have provided face-to-face, group and webcam lessons for children and adults.

Although I enjoy listening to classical piano the most, I listen to all genres piano music.

I have been teaching flute, saxophone, clarinet, piano, music theory and folk woodwinds for more than 15 years.

Let's convert your passion for music to something bigger!

Looking for a teacher to help develop your child's musical skills? Getting ready for a school audition? or just really interested in performing a specific song/piece?
I am an experienced performer and I teach singing and piano to students of all levels, making sure all students enjoy the music making process and give them the necessary tools to grow more confident in their craft.
The lessons are tailored to the student's personality, goals and musical background, and therefore there is always the freedom and opportunity to communicate with me any changes to make the course more suited to the student's needs and wants.

Hello! My name is Emily and I’m a professional singer and a passionate and experienced singing and piano teacher with 15 years of teaching experience to students of all ages and abilities.

As a teacher, my main goal is to make your lessons fun, rewarding and enjoyable (as music making should be!) whilst supporting and encouraging you every step of the way in your development.

I am dedicated to ensuring that online music lessons are as effective and engaging as in-person lessons; please don’t hesitate to get in touch to discuss options further!

In your singing lessons, we will work on building your technique and musicality, your repertoire in multiple genres as well as your confidence as a performer. I teach a solid classical based technique which can then be applied to multiple genres of music. As an accomplished pianist I will accompany you at the piano as you sing your chosen songs. (For online lessons I will find suitable backing tracks.)

In your piano lessons, for beginners - I will determine the appropriate starting materials based on your age, innate ability, and level of understanding. For those who have already been learning and are looking to resume their studies, I will facilitate a seamless and supportive transition. I will work closely with you to gain a thorough understanding of your needs and ensure the most effective path forward.

If you are interested in having both singing and piano lessons, you can have an hour lesson comprising of half singing and half piano.

I have over 10 years of experience in preparing students for exam grades, and work with the ABRSM syllabus and the Trinity syllabus. My students have a 100% pass rate, with the majority achieving a Merit or Distinction.
