Friendly and caring. Irreplaceable.”, Saeeda Hussein, mother of Leila 5, , “I’m 47 years old and they say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks but in Rosie’s case it’s not true. She’s kind, patient and what she doesn’t know about music isn’t worth knowing.”, Neil McAdams, 47, , “Our son started learning piano with Rosie and has made fantastic progress. He loves every minute of his lessons and practice. He has benefited from both the excellent theory work and the fun aspects that Rosie brings to piano. As parents we couldn’t ask for a better learning environment or tutor.”, Natalie Hargreaves, mother of William 10, , “Rosie gave me the confidence to believe in my ability, and thanks to her structured approach and understanding of my strengths and weaknesses I recently passed my first two exams with distinction!

Piano Experienced piano teacher, pianist and author, studied at Chetham's music schol and the RNCM (see www.aaronpublications.co.uk). Welcomes all ages and abilities - for graded examinations or just for fun! Everyone is different, and lessons will be structured according to your individual needs. Some may wish to learn at a steady pace (simply for relaxation and enjoyment), whilst others may desire more intensive training. Rachel believes in the importance of having a solid foundation and therefore technical instruction plays a key part. Other essential elements are taught, of course, such as music history, music theory, aural. Memorization of pieces is encouraged to improve aural/listening skills. Students are given opportunity to perform in music festivals and concerts (highly beneficial since students also hear others play, and receive feedback/marks about their own playing from distinguished musicians/ adjudicators)., , Practical exams are optional (Rachel advises students enter for Grade 5 and Grade 8 but leave out the grades in between [since grades 1-8 do not demand much from students and they should know far more than the exam requirements. A grade 8 distinction does not mean you'll get into music college, which accepts students upon audition!]). However music theory exams are highly recommended and helpful, to support practical training (100% pass rate for all exams taken). If needed, you can work towards ABRSM or Trinity Guildhall Grade exams in theory and performance, A-level performance or exams, GCSE performance or exams, or any other structured learning you would like.
