I am a professional Pianist and tutor with expertise in teaching students to play the piano up to grade 8 (ABRSM, Rock school or Trinity).

Tutoring Experience:
I provide piano lessons for all ages from beginners up to grade VIII standard. This may be your first time playing the piano and have always wondered how to approach learning your favourite song. On the other hand you may have already had lots of experience playing and you are seeking expert guidance on how to pass your music exams with high marks. Regardless of your experience, I can take you through a rich and diverse musical programme that is designed to challenge, motivate and improve your piano performance to its highest potential.
If you are a beginner who wants to learn to play your own favourite songs for the first time or an advanced student who wants to take exams to progress into music college, you have come to the right place. I have over 5 years of experience of tutoring students from the very beginning elementary stages of learning to play the piano and developing them into highly skilled musicians. The lessons that you will have, adapt to your own style of learning which for some will mean wanting to learn solely by ear but for others, this will be focusing on developing knowledge from the fundamentals of music theory and reading notation.
Tutoring Approach:
*Provide lessons in Jazz, Classical and Pop
*Tuition for learning to play music from written manuscript notation or from ear
*Develop a solid foundation of correct piano technique, rhythm, aural and musical expression
*A dynamic and creative approach for teaching children using musical games, popular songs and more
*Get the best quality tuition from an experienced pianist who can teach you how to perform on stage
*Cover ABRSM and Rockschool exam grades

He explains concepts thoroughly and clearly, and is very patient. He doesn't rush me at all, but rather works at my pace until I understand things.

I would like to wish you the very best for the future
This came through for me recently when I sat my Grade 2 Piano exam. Sam covered everything I needed to know and helped me achieve my full potential. I recently received my results and managed to score 134, which is a Distinction. This would not of been possible without him. He is a great teacher and I highly recommend him.
He will give me scales and music to practice before the next lesson.
