I am an adult learner, who started playing the piano over 40 years ago. I am thoroughly enjoying lessons with Claire. She is an excellent communicator and knows her craft. She has reignited my enjoyment of playing the piano, embedding a strong foundation of best practice. The lessons are well structured and Claire gives positive, constructive feedback and encouragement.
When I was younger, I now realise I didn't always practise as I should. Claire has motivated me to practise at home and apply the learning from lessons. There is so much to learn and Claire is able to suit the content to my learning style and provides suitable challenges to embed the learning and take my skills and knowledge further. I highly recommend Claire as a piano teacher.
