I'm a professional Pianist/Composer with a strong knowledge of the theory and techniques required to teach, perform and compose works of music. I am academically and classically trained at the Conservatoire (both in Piano and Composition) but throughout my career I developed a very diverse musical background, which enables me to teach, perform and compose in a wide variety of styles, from classical and contemporary to pop-rock and recent trends. Throughout my more than 20-year piano teaching career I've taught it at all levels, from age 4 to adult, from beginners to diploma level. I'm familiar with the ABRSM and Trinity syllabi and I can teach up to grade 8 theory. I can in all honesty say that students are very comfortable with me, and I usually succeed in making them give their best.
