The flagship online courses here on Teachable draw on 30 years experience in music eduction preceded by my own education (a music degree, post-graduate teaching qualification and piano performance diploma.
Playing an instrument brings joy to the day through total absorption, mental and physical challenge and emotional involvement. The aim here is to share my own passion for making music, to help others develop their practical skills, their musical knowledge and ultimately, foster a life-long love of playing the piano.
