My 8 guiding principles for piano teaching
1. Making music is at the heart of all lessons
2. Learning is placed within a structured and progressive framework
3. Separating the development of pianistic skills from the teaching of musical concepts
4. Every student is treated as unique and is given an individual, tailor-made approach
5. Encouraging a sense of exploration and discovery in students
6. Engaging the imagination, energy and creativity of students and teacher
7. Teaching with honesty, commitment, integrity, professionalism and passion
8. Being committed to a process of ongoing professional development and personal music making
As a creative and curious piano teacher I believe.....
“I believe in creating an environment where music is valued in the teaching studio and the wider community and where becoming a musician and pianist is accessible to everyone”
“I believe in the power of music to change lives for the better and that piano teachers have part to play in making that happen”
“I believe that access to music is a universal right”
“I believe that music and playing an instrument help their students to become better human beings”
