Paul is an excellent piano teacher. He is very knowledgeable and patient, has an engaging teaching style and always comes up with interesting and challenging pieces to play. His feedback and tips are insightful, he uses technology well and he has helped me develop my piano playing.

Paul is a wonderful piano teacher, and I would highly recommend him to both children and adults. My daughter started lessons with him just before COVID, when she was around seven or eight. When lessons moved to Zoom, I was so impressed by how well he taught online that I decided to start learning too!
We built a lovely relationship with Paul and were delighted to return to face-to-face lessons once restrictions lifted. He is incredibly patient, knowledgeable and encouraging, while also giving us the gentle push we needed to practise consistently and keep progressing.
I particularly appreciated his emphasis on music theory, which became an important part of learning for both of us. His years of experience really show, and we have both been so pleased with our lessons. Thank you, Paul!

I restarted the piano after a gap of 50 years, and found Paul to be an extremely experienced tutor. I hadn’t imagined I was still capable of playing - and not just classical pieces, but also popular and jazz. Though I didn’t want to take any formal exams, we worked through the ABRSM set pieces and the theory, so that I knew I was making progress.
I also liked the piano that Paul teaches on - a combination of acoustic and digital, with a lovely tone. And his technological set-up allows for video lessons from home if required.
Although it’s now possible to learn an instrument entirely via an app, I would strongly advise the guidance of an experienced teacher in a professional setting. There are also musical conversations to be enjoyed - about classical composers through the centuries, orchestral performance, the birth of jazz, and new modern approaches.
Highly recommended.

Paul makes good use of technology, so that you keep learning between lessons, and he can see the progress you are making. He also has endless patience, and the experience to know what will work with each learner, as of course we are all different!
