Family Loyalty · 2 daughters, 1 hour drive
“We are so lucky to have found Kathleen. She was recommended to us. Her way of teaching is broad and systematic. She teaches my 2 daughters who always pass their exams. We moved house and it takes almost an hour to drive to her but we stayed with her as there is no way we would find another piano tutor who is as good as her. We are very happy and grateful for Kathleen. She is the best!”

Adult Returner · 75 years old · 55 years away
“I am 75 years of age. I played when young at a high level but after not playing for over 55 years could not envisage playing properly again. Some bad habits have been identified and no doubt there will be more to come. She is gradually bringing a lot back to me. She has awakened my interest in music again, especially the piano. She is an excellent communicator. She is patient. She is an overall amazing teacher. She is quite inspirational.”

Parent · 4 weeks vs. 2 years at school
“Kathleen is amazing. My son had been having piano lessons at his school for almost 2 years and he has learnt more in 4 weeks with Kathleen than he had in the years doing lessons at school. We wished we had found Kathleen sooner. She is super knowledgeable and patient with my son and he thoroughly enjoys his lessons.”

Long-term student · 12 years · Now advanced
“Kathleen has been teaching my son piano for 12 years! Now, aged 16, he is a confident pianist comfortable performing for large groups. He is now working towards advanced grades. Kathleen has a considerate approach to teaching and adapted her lessons and the timing of her exams so they fitted around my son’s recent GCSEs. I would thoroughly recommend Kathleen.”

Confidence Building · Shy child, school performance
“My daughter really wanted to learn the piano and as she is quite shy and not very confident, I wanted to find someone who could help her one-to-one and help bring out some confidence in her. After a few months we were really proud to see that she played a song in front of the other learners in a school hall. My daughter looks forward to her lessons and Kathleen is very friendly, approachable and good with children. I would definitely recommend Kathleen.”
