Music has been my life’s passion and being able to share that passion with others is the best job in the world! Based in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire, your piano lessons are taught face to face in a purpose built studio. Whatever your starting point, age or preferred style of music I will tailor a course of lessons just for you. We can even learn online together with one-to-one video lessons.

I can also offer tuition that supports students with special educational needs. There are no barriers to learning music. As well as playing on a modern Kawai upright piano we will have fun learning music theory by playing a range of percussion instruments, synthesisers and musical games.
/ Wai Sum C.
In over 20 years of teaching, I have taught a wide range of students from young beginners to vocational musicians and adults who learn for pleasure.
The teaching environments I have worked in include peripatetic teaching at independent schools (Belmont House School), vocational schools (Purcell School and the RSAMD Junior Department), and community music trusts (Cumbernauld Music Trust).
I currently teach piano privately and at the King Edward School. I have students preparing for GCSE, ABRSM and A Level performance exams. No student will want to keep coming for weekly lessons if they don’t enjoy their lessons so as a teacher, I always aim to inspire and motivate my students with creative teaching practices.
I run Rhythm Circle in Sutton Coldfield, a musical holiday club for young children aged 5-9 years. It teaches the basics of music via multi-sensory games and activities. Recommended for young beginners as a friendly introduction to formal music lessons
Music has been a huge part of my life since beginning to learn the piano when I was 13 years old. I quickly taught myself to play the piano and my mom would often ask me to learn songs from the radio by ears. Soon I have developed an ear for music, showing family and classmates my unique talent for music production and song writing. When I was 16 years old, I started a rock band with my brother and a friend. During this time, I learnt to play several other instruments (guitar, bass and drums). Soon my reputation grew, and I became known throughout the area for my quick fingers on the piano and powerful stage presence. After 3 years of touring the clubs and the most popular music festivals in Slovakia, the band broke up and I went into full time employment. After 2 years, the allure of making music and performing was too much and I applied for the Slovak/Czech version of the X-Factor. I truly enjoyed the experience and learnt a lot, making it through to the final 10 males in the Under 25s category. This exposure gave me the opportunity to have a brief stint as a touring musician, playing abroad in venues and hotels throughout Europe. However, due to being homesick and not enjoying travelling, I returned to Slovakia and got a job as an AV technician with the Slovakian National Theatre. It was at this time when I also built my own home studio and began producing and mixing music for up-and-coming local rappers, bands and artists. As my reputation grew for beat making, mixing, mastering and producing. Very soon I realised that I needed a premises and opened my own studio in Bratislava. As a young entrepreneur I quickly started to attract popular Slovak and Czech artists such as H16, Aless, Plexo, Otis, FobiaKid, Ego and collaborated with some of the best producers in Eastern Europe. Soon my productions were being played on national radio and television. Being called one of the Best Young Producers of 2017 by a reputable online magazine. After being offered a distribution deal from an international record label, I decided it was time to take my career to a new level. I felt the UK music scene was where I needed to be and sold my studio at the end of 2017. I moved to the West Midlands and began applying for work in recording studios and theatres. Soon, I found the Beatsabar Music Project and I have been working out of there until now – Recording sessions, mixing & mastering, music production, song writing, music production workshops and tuition. My musical production skills have developed from roots in musical composition and live performance experience. I have added to my journey via the studio route, having spent time as a recording engineer, in my home studio and later in my own premises. As a producer, I move between two roles, depending on the needs of the artist and music. Sometimes I involve myself in every detail of the musical arrangement of the artists’ songs, becoming an extra member of the band. Whereas at other times I take more of a back seat, subtlety guiding the artist through the maze of multitudinous options available when making contemporary records.

I teach from my home in Vale Street, Amblecote, and also travel to my pupils to teach where time and distance permits (and where a suitable instrument is available for both tuition and practice between lessons). Currently I teach around twenty-five to thirty pupils per week, ranging in age from five to sixty-five. Lessons are usually on a regular weekly basis and range from 20 minutes (for very young beginners) up to an hour for more advanced students. Fees are tailored according to duration and location of lessons.
Entrance to ABRSM graded exams is encouraged (but not obligatory), as is participation in local music festivals each year. I believe exams are a means to an end but should not be an end in themselves. Understanding and enjoyment of the music performed are paramount, as is developing technical proficiency on the instrument. Likewise, I place particular emphasis on the experience to be gained from performing music in front of an audience, rather than the purely competitive side of music festivals. I aim to teach to the highest standards, and many of my pupils obtain merits and distinctions in both their practical and theory grades, as well as regularly achieving 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places in their respective festival classes.
I aim to teach my students not only to become good pianists, but well rounded musicians. To this end, I place emphasis on developing good sight-reading skills and aural ability, as well as encouraging my pupils to adopt good practice habits from an early stage. Theory and history of music, including awareness and understanding of different musical styles and forms, is also something which I incorporate into my teaching, as is the compositional element - being a significant requirement of the GCSE and A level school music curriculum. Theory tuition is also offered separately.
By developing the above skills on the piano, I fully believe in helping my students to become self-sufficient musicians who can then continue learning and enjoying music for themselves. In addition, I believe this will help them develop skills relevant to many other disciplines, activities, and everyday situations, including: gaining in self-confidence; the ability to communicate and interact well with others; improving manual dexterity; and improving brain function (in terms of cognitive ability, lateral thinking, spatial awareness, and motor co-ordination skills) - even for those who do not go on to study or perform music at higher levels.
