Personal Description:

My particular forté is helping students who are keen to play the piano but lack confidence in their ability to do so.
• Seasoned concert pianist with proven history of performing at illustrious venues including Golden Hall in Vienna and several invitation-only performances at Windsor Castle
• Exceptional leadership and ability to motivate and inspire.
• Proficient in four languages (English, German, Russian, Czech), currently studying Mandarin
• Current enhanced DBS (CRB) check.

Tutoring Experience:

• 20+ Years of proven working experience as a tutor, having played piano in total of over 40 years
• Exceptional results of pupils from local, regional, nationwide and international music competitions and festivals, including first prize in International Chopin Piano Competition in Estonia (Jan 2023)
• Multiple awards from regional music festivals to students (Plymouth, Windsor, London, Marlow and Maidenhead) with 91+ mark (honors) for performances in the recital and composition classes
• Cultivation of young talents with aim to take on a piano as a career choice, currently enjoying 100% RCM/RAM audition success
• 100% ARSM, LRSM and FRSM diplomas pass rate

Tutoring Approach:

I enjoy teaching, helping and supporting pupils, no matter what level or age. I believe the suitability of the individual to learn piano is given not by the age, but by the ability to listen and follow the instructions. For that reason it is important to be able to determine whether the prospective student is capable to understand and so adapting the approach is important – treating adults in a same way as children and vice-versa might prove ineffective. I believe I have an outstanding ability to empathize with my pupils and therefore each lesson is a tailor-fit to the student's nature and abilities. Having a strong working connection with the parents is also a great tool to encourage young children – in a positive way - to practice and improve. Having said that, I don't consider myself some super teacher with high expectations. In fact, I realize vast majority of piano students are the ones having lessons as a hobby on the side. Contrary to popular belief, great students aren't found by a teacher. Great students are MADE by the teacher, and I have every confidence I can make you - or your child - a great pianist, through my guidance and ability to motivate, inspire and taking individual approach.
• Chinese/far eastern heritage students especially welcome!
