About Me

I am a classically trained guitarist and pianist. I have been teaching for the last 8 years. I teach students of all ages.

My background is a mixture of classical training, self-learning and years of live performing with numerous bands and solo recitals. My approach to teaching reflects my background - I will always focus on proper technique while also making sure that you're motivated to keep playing the instrument and have fun with it.

I like to have students work to set targets that you feel good about, whether that's an exam, performance, or your favourite piece.

I work from a variety if syllabus (classical, folk, pop, rock etc.) but we can also make it up based on what interests you! Whether you have played before, or have never played a note in your life, together we can find plenty to keep you interested and get the most out of your instrument!

Stephanie

I specialise in teaching private Piano, Singing & Music Theory lessons.

Having graduated with a First Class Honours Degree from the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama and continuing to study opera at the prestigious Royal College of Music, I have been singing professionally for over 8 years.

Through having this professional performance experience, I teach with enthusiasm and a sense of openness. I have developed a flexible teaching technique which I adapt to each particular student. I am friendly and patient whilst also being clear and concise. In our lessons I believe it is essential for the student to feel at ease, and therefore my main goal is always to create a safe and free environment to discover and try new things!

Perhaps you sing or play as a hobby, or maybe you would like to take serious steps towards training as a professional performer. My knowledge of singing provides advanced tuition to all of my students, whatever level or genre you may be at or would like to start working at- each one of my students have different goals and intentions we are working towards together. I can help you to proceed through singing/instrumental/music theory grades, also teaching the aural aspects, but I am also as happy to teach those who would prefer to sing/play/study for fun without taking grades.

In our singing lessons we will cover a range of skills, such as posture, diction, breathing, self-expression and the most important ways to take care of your voice.

I take great pleasure from my teaching and I work with pianists and singers of all ages and abilities. Please do get in touch if you have any questions and I look forward to meeting you!

I teach from beginners to adults.
I start with finding out what sort of music the student/s would like to learn and go about then finding out what their level is.
We need to find out at where the student is at from locating “middle C“, to finding their way around the keyboard further.
What their experience is and if they can play anything or share anything they have learnt.
