I have over four years of experience tutoring both online and face-to-face. During this time, I have taught piano to children as young as three and worked intensively on exam preparation, including English tests and the ISEE, often with only three months’ notice. I’ve also helped students exceed their grade level in English writing, reading, and comprehension. Additionally, I have worked with children with autism, ADHD, and anxiety, focusing on building trust and creating a fun, engaging learning environment where we can grow together.

Sutton Coldfield, England
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

The Musical Box is a privately owned and run music school dedicated to teaching contemporary music skills in drums, guitar (acoustic and electric), bass guitar, piano/ keyboards, ukulele and vocals to students of all ages and abilities. We offer a comprehensive and varied syllabus to cater for beginners, grade students, intermediate players and experiences/ semi professional musicians. While TMB is a ‘School of Rock’, we also teach classical, jazz, folk, pop, funk, soul and all points in between. Every teacher at TMB is handpicked and chosen for a combination of his/her qualifications, music capabilities and the ability to communicate and empathise with people from all walks of life. All teachers are DBS checked before working at TMB.
TMB believe passionately that fun and pleasure in making music are fundamental to good learning so that while every lesson, within reason, is planned and tailored to the student’s individual requirements, the key element will be just that – FUN! Once you have honed your skills in your personalised one to one lessons, we believe whole heartedly that playing an instrument or singing is best done with other people, although this is not compulsory!! So at The Musical Box we actively encourage musicians to meet and play with other likeminded students for fun or for more serious ambitions as well as take lessons. TMB want music to be seen as a serious career choice for those who take it that seriously and aim to provide the skills and experiences required to make it in the music industry. We also appreciate more and more every day what great stress buster music is, and how sociable and relaxing it can be to play for an hour with a band or teacher learning to better your skill and improve your well being.

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. Your piano lessons will be relaxed and fun with structured learning at the heart of each and every lesson.
With 22 years experience of being a qualified primary and secondary classroom teacher and offer age appropriate lessons that are always fun and engaging. 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.

As a dedicated tutor with over 10 years of experience in piano and music theory, I have a huge appreciation for the intricacies of music and its ability to enrich lives. My journey in teaching began with a passion for sharing the beauty of melody and harmony, guiding students through the elegant dance of keys and notes. Each lesson is structured not only to impart technical skills but also to inspire creativity and a genuine love for music in my students. Whilst I am expert in teaching the ABRSM curriculum, I am also happy to teach those curious to learn outside the realm of exams and structured pieces! In addition to my musical expertise, I have spent the past five years nurturing young minds in key stage 2 English and maths. I bring a patient and engaging approach to the lesson, recognising that every child learns at their own pace. My lessons are infused with interactive activities and relatable examples, making complex concepts accessible and enjoyable. Whether exploring the rhythms of a sonata or unraveling the mysteries of grammar and numbers, my goal is to empower my students with confidence and knowledge, setting them on a path to success.

i am a great believer in adults as well as children learning to play piano, and that the process should be fun! But i am also looking to teach more than piano... we regularly write reviews of Operas, and do Workshops about how to write music. And we teach you how to write and publish a Song For You, in oher words, you too can create something for yourself, or someone you care for.
Best thing is.. reach out to me, have a chat, and delighetd to seer if I can help.

Hello! I'm a music teacher with 5 years of experience and I specialise in harmony/theory, composition, and jazz improvisation. Whether you/ your child is a complete beginner, or you're a professional musician looking to 'add more musical ingredients to the cupboard', or anywhere inbetween, I'd love to hear from you so we can sort out a free taster lesson.
If you are completely new to music, the piano/keyboard (or the drums) is the best place to start. The layout of the keyboard forms the basis for our understanding of harmony and theory, without which, learners of instruments (other than drums) will be at a significant disadvantage.
Things I can help with:
- inspiring young beginners to take up music-making, with a joyful, creative and holistic approach.
- electric bass (bass guitar) lessons, beginner to intermediate
- saxophone lessons, beginner to advanced
- provide a method and structure to beginner/intermediate students looking to take the next step with piano, saxophone, or electric bass
- inspire teens and adults to delve into the world of music with no prior experience
- help intermediate - advanced pianists develop better technique, up to grade 8 level
- provide a comprehensive training in jazz harmony, advanced rhythm, classical composition, songwriting, or improvisation
Things I can't help with:
- Diploma-level classical piano
- Advanced virtuoso electric bass
- Forcing students to learn things they are not interested in
- Forcing students to try to play things they are not yet ready for
- Someone who is looking for the traditional 'strict piano teacher' who doesn't let you choose your own music, punishes you for making mistakes, and has a rigid teaching style that is not adapted to each student

Providing tuition for all ages at pupils homes only.
Based in West London, I been tutoring for the last 25 years all ages and ABRSM grades, inspiring them to learn and play four hands repertoire, as well as preparing for ABRSM exams. I'm tutoring pupils for their own pleasure or ABRSM grades, in relaxed, positive, encouraging and motivational atmosphere towards achieving better levels of performance. From classical to contemporary and popular music, the choice is yours. All that matters is having joy of playing music, whether beginner, intermediate or advanced. 12 years of experience, piano or keyboard is perfectly fine with me, what matters the most is enthusiasm and genuine desire to improve. I'm based in West London, references upon request.

Hi my name is Laura. I have always enjoyed music and I believe it is one of the best ways you can express yourself as an individual. I started learning the electronic keyboard at the age of 11 at a music school, later migrating to piano in my teens. My obsession with music continued all to the way through to my late teens and early 20s when I later graduated with a Bachelor's Degree with Honours at Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge. While studying music at university, I was lucky to receive expert tuition from Jazz Pianist and composer Chris Ingham. Since graduation I always wanted to be in a funk or soul band and even now regularly turn up to jazz gigs and jams and play at open mics as I feel its so important to keep your music fresh and learn off other people.
I have been teaching piano as a peripatetic and private teacher since I left University, so when I was 21 years old.
I was really lucky to experience tuition in such a contemporary, 'non stuffy' manner, I truly believe this is the way music should be taught. There's nothing worse than dull piano lessons! Music is like a language, we learn it through the art of doing. I believe in teaching music in a friendly, non-fussy way and I like to bring out the best in my students by tailoring their lessons around them and their goals. My students study their music and theory then take exams when they are ready, I would never put a student through the pressure of an exam unless they are ready. All lessons are taught in a relaxed environment from my home and I am friendly and approachable, so why not give me a call on the phone and see what you think?
