Classical Piano Lessons for Children & Adults - Home visit available

From 52 £ /h

My piano lessons are designed for both children and adults, from complete beginners to intermediate learners. With a strong classical background and over seven years of teaching experience, I focus on building solid technique, musical understanding, and confidence while keeping lessons enjoyable and motivating.

For children, lessons are structured but engaging, helping students develop good practice habits, rhythm, reading skills, and musical expression through age-appropriate repertoire. I aim to create a supportive environment where students feel encouraged and progress steadily at their own pace.

For adult learners, lessons are tailored to individual goals, whether learning for personal enjoyment, returning to piano after a break, or improving technique and musicality. I adapt teaching methods to suit each student’s learning style, ensuring lessons are clear, practical, and enjoyable.

My teaching combines technical foundation, musical expression, and a positive, patient approach, helping students build long-term confidence and enjoyment in playing the piano.

I believe music lessons can be a real joy and it is very important to me that my lessons inspire students to develop a passion for it!

I approach all my students individually and build up lessons in compliance with their goals and needs. If your goal is to take exams (ABRSM, Trinity) or if you want to learn how to play your favourite song on piano I will make the piano transcriptions considering your level and technical ability.

I have been playing the piano for 13 years. I have always loved learning the instrument and music in general. I teach beginner classes for any age, however, most of my experience is teaching children.

I teach classical piano. I can teach for whatever ends are desired, be that going through the ABRSM grades or just playing for fun.

Learning music can be quite frustrating particularly when few teachers intertwine musical theory with instrumental proficiency in a comprehensive manner. Normally the focus is on one or the other and I personally found this quite frustrating. I always felt the best way was to learn both alongside each other - that is to apply musical knowledge to the instrument and to have the knowledge to appreciate and understand the music that is being played. The best part is this can all be done at the keyboard, keeping playing the piano a fun activity and not a chore.

(ENG -FR) Hi ! I am a Swiss concert pianist and teacher living in east London. Interested in all kind of arts, I am a relaxed, friendly and easy-going person, looking forward to meeting you !
My approach to piano teaching is very flexible, as every student is different, has another path and another story to tell through music.
We'll focus on your needs and desires and define the goals together. My job will be to take you where you want to go, step by step.
Music is a language, and I'll be able to help you understand the "grammar" of it if you need or want it.
In general, each lesson includes various learning aspects (sight reading, technique, breathing ...), all serving the musical expression.
I teach at my house on my lovely Yamaha baby grand piano (or can travel to your place if not too far from Lower Clapton).
I've enjoyed teaching the piano for more than 2 decades now, to children and adults of all age, both at home or in piano schools, with lots of achievements and satisfaction for both my students and me :-)
I have a professional teaching diploma as well as a master degree in performance (concert diploma) issued in Switzerland (university of the Arts - Bern)

As an educator, Fiachra is focused always on finding the way of making music which suits each of his students best, with a confident and comfortable way of working with the instrument (which then transfers into the rest of life). He has been praised for his patient and compassionate approach, and an openness and freedom which he shares in his performance.

When teaching young children, he makes use of imaginative imagery and games to help explain concepts in a way that children can understand. He has also been praised for his ability to listen and understand the needs of his students, helping them make progress in a rewarding way.

His methodology is tailored to each individual student, with a focus on providing enjoyment of the individual lessons as much as possible. He is understanding in giving constructive feedback and understandsi how important it is to foster a healthy self-image and self-story in all of his students.

Fiachra teaches at every level, and is always supportive of different learning approaches for each persons unique needs, and shows great awareness and understanding in particular of students with SpLDs.

I am very proud to be a keeper of the Russian Music School tradition, and also very proud of my musical and teaching legacy - my teachers’ line can be traced back to Beethoven himself!
I have vast experience in teaching classical piano to people of all levels, ages and backgrounds. In case you just don’t know where to start or want to get to know the basics of playing - I possess a very unique teaching method for beginners based on my teachers’ research and enhanced by my own experience (over 10 years), which allows you to get to know the piano and see how you’re feeling about it. If you are rather advanced and looking for expanding your knowledge - I’m ready to back you up with not just useful tips, but some history and more profound understanding of where the composer you’ve chosen (and maybe even this particular work you’re interested in) came from. My approach is very individual and well-rounded, so if you really want to explore what it is all about and how it works and have passion for that - so do I!

My name is Andrea, I have recently concluded my Artist's Master in keyboard instruments at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama. My passion for music induced me to apply in the “Conservatorio Profesional de Música de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria” in the course of Harpsichord as my principal study. After 10 years studying music and obtaining the diploma of “Grado de Enseñanzas Profesionales” in the conservatory, I developed a deep interest for Classical and Early music for keyboard instruments.

Discovering a historical and musical universe, I decided to continue my performing and theoretical investigation studying the bachelor course in keyboard instruments including piano, harpsichord and organ. I had the amazing opportunity to obtain a scholarship and study at the "Conservatorio Tartini di Trieste", in Italy. Working with exceptional teachers, i was able expand my linguistic abilities and cultural appreciation for the expressive diversity of Keyboard music. I have discovered the magnificent variety between many composers all around Europe and the distinct features and techniques they utilized to improvise and to embellish their pieces. During this artistic journey, i have had extraordinary performance experiences as a soloist including playing at the Parlament of Brussels and the National Gallery in Bosnia. Recently, living in London has inspired me to take part in a wide variety of exciting projects such as performing as a keyboard accompanist in Opera Scenes and with the Guildhall Baroque Orchestra in the Milton Court Concert Hall.

I am Teacher Agnes. I have been teaching piano for 22 years. I specialize in teaching piano and piano theory courses. I worked as a piano teacher in a school in Hong Kong five years ago and have a good communication relationship with students.

I am a classically trained pianist with a Bachelor’s degree in Classical Piano and a Master’s degree in Musical Directing, bringing over a decade of experience to both performance and teaching.

With more than 12 years of experience working with adults and children, including those with special needs and learning differences, I have developed a teaching style that is both patient and structured. I believe that a strong foundation in technique opens the door for true musical expression, allowing every student—no matter their age or ability—to discover the joy of making music.

I am well-versed with the different examination boards such as ABRSM/Trinity/Rockschool

Whether I am preparing a student for exams, guiding beginners through their first scales, or encouraging creativity through performance, my goal is always to foster confidence, discipline, and artistry at the piano.
