Originally self taught Martina later studied accordion with Philippe Piquot whilst living in Paris and holds a teacher’s Diploma (LTCL) in music education (Trinity College London). Martina has many years of experience in teaching the piano-accordion to students of all ages. It is important to her to meet the needs of the individual student. This can range from preparation for graded exams to helping arranging for accordion or just having fun exploring this versatile instrument. Tunes can be taught by ear or using sheet music, always driven by the music and style the student wishes to learn.
