What Adult Students Say

"As an adult learner I was apprehensive about starting piano lessons, but Janet put me at ease from the first moment of talking to her. The first lesson was a great introduction and 6 months later I am in love with piano playing and have developed beyond anything I would have imagined.

Janet takes pride in teaching and puts a large amount of effort if getting to know my style and finds pieces to keep me interested but also pushing my learning to higher levels. If there is anyone on the fence like I was about learning I would strongly recommend Janet, she will definitely show you your potential and why piano is for you."

Steve, Adult Student

"As an adult I thought it would be difficult going back to learning the piano after such a long gap but it was something I had wanted to do for a long time. Janet understood those concerns and tailored her lessons to suit me. Janet is an excellent teacher and after a few lessons she had convinced me that learning to play the piano again was definitely something worth doing. I find her encouraging and enthusiastic and she has a good sense of humour making lessons a good laugh as well as helping me progress. If you're thinking of taking up the piano give Janet a call."

from Phillip, Adult Student

"My piano lessons with Janet helped me achieve my grade 7 certificate and also helped me in my music A level exams. I always found my lessons extremely helpful and through these lessons I gained back my motivation and love for playing, as before this I had stopped playing for a while. I would recommend Janet to anyone wanting to learn to play, or anyone going back to playing as she is a brilliant teacher who brings out the best in her students. Thank you for helping me achieve the results that I had!"

from Natalie, Adult Student

"At the age of 66 I finally decided to try and learn to play the piano. An instrument I had not touched since I was a young boy who was probably more interested in playing rugby than playing a piano. What a pleasure the whole experience has been since I first met Jan. I immediately felt relaxed as Jan took time to find out what I knew and explained how we would proceed. She is an excellent teacher in every respect and quite obviously is interested in you. If like me you are starting out on your piano playing journey I have no reservations in recommending Jan to you. Go on take the plunge, you won't be disappointed".

Rob, Adult Student

"I hadn’t played piano since I was young, and Jan was just the right teacher to inspire and motivate me to play again. She is a great combination of enthusiasm and patience - keeping me on the right track".

Alyson, Adult Student

I found the whole experience to be very positive, from the choice of books, which helped me to get started again, to helping with posture and setting up the zoom so that remote learning was possible. All the time having comments from Janet which helped me to feel that I was moving forward and achieving my aims.

Caroline, Adult Student

"Learning something new as an adult is always an anxious time, Jan made me feel at ease and helped gain confidence in my playing. You are never too old to learn and resume a lost skill, Jan is patient and adjusts the lessons to your ability".

Sally, Adult Student

"Jan taught me not only to appreciate the skills I learned as a child but to really enjoy playing the piano again. She must have a lot of patience because I was never naturally talented! Jan is always encouraging and positive and never put any pressure on me - just sheer enjoyment of learning!"

Leigh, Adult Student

"As an adult learner, I needed flexibility and enjoyment out of playing the piano. After 10 years of not playing, Jan has given me the confidence to practice again. Over the past two years I have always enjoyed my lessons with Janet and her teaching style. Janet is very proactive and I enjoyed playing virtually at our Christmas concert. Diolch Janet am gyfnod o joio yn ein gwersi. Dwi wedi bod yn mwynhau ein deuawdau."
