About Rianne

I’ve taught over 25 students, from complete beginners to advanced players, children through to adults. Several have stayed with me for more than a year, my longest was over three years, and three families have brought both of their children to me. That matters more to me than any exam result. It means the lessons are somewhere people actually want to keep coming back to.

I teach from my home studio in Camberley on a Kawai baby grand, and online for students further away.

Playing the piano is where I go to think clearly, and what I most want is for students to find that too, whether they’re heading for Grade 8 or just want to finally play something they love properly.

I don’t only exist between 4 and 5 on a Tuesday. Students message me between lessons with questions, or send me a piece they’ve found and want to learn. That’s always welcome.

About the lesson

Every student is different, so I don't teach one way for everyone. Some want exams, some just want to play their favourite film music, some want to sit down after work and unwind for half an hour. All good reasons to learn.

In lessons we work on technique, sight reading and theory alongside your pieces, but the piece always comes first. I'll explain why a hand shape or fingering works instead of just asking you to trust me, because that's what actually sticks when I'm not in the room.

Exams. I prepare students for ABRSM and Trinity, Grades 1 to 8, including Grade 5 Theory. I'll always tell you honestly where a student stands. If another term would turn a nervous pass into a confident one, I'll say so, but it's always the family's call.

Beginners. No experience needed, no age limit. Adults who stopped as kids and always meant to go back are some of my favourite students to teach.

Between lessons you'll get a clear practice plan, what to work on and how, not just "practise this." Feel free to send me a recording or a question anytime.

On pace. Everyone learns at their own speed and I never compare students to each other. We celebrate milestones as they come. Nobody is ever behind, and there's no such thing as a silly question at my piano.

Mandarin and Cantonese songs. I'm a native speaker of both, so if you want to play and actually understand Chinese pop or classical pieces, lyrics, tones, meaning and all, I can help with that too.

Find out more about Rianne

When did you first develop a passion for music and your favourite instrument?
I started learning piano when I was 6 and felt really passionate when I was 13 years old. My favourite instrument is the piano.
Is there a particular type of music or artist that you listen to on a loop without it driving you crazy?
Soft classical music has always my favourite.
Explain to us the most difficult or riveting course you could personally give to a student of music.
The most difficult one would be grade 7 with theory in piano.
What do you think is the most complicated instrument to master and why?
I think the most complicated instrument to master is the oboe. It requires the player to control multiple things at the same time. It demands a lot from the mouth, lips, tongue and breath because the sound of the instrument's notes isn't just controlled by finger placement.
What are your keys to success?
The key to success in piano really requires lots of hard work and patience and most importantly a passion for music.
Name three musicians you dream of meeting in your favourite bar in the early hours of the morning. Explain why.
I would really love to meet Lang Lang,Yuja Wang and Louis Lotie. I want to hear their personal experience about them and their journey with music
Provide a valuable anecdote related to music or your days at music school.
I hated sight reading when I was young but I really want to learn a lot of new pop songs quickly. I always get bored practising pieces over and over again. Eventually, my sight reading improved and I could play with both hands immediately after I scanned through the pieces.
What are the little touches that make you a Superprof in music?
There's never a shortcut, practice day by day you will see the difference eventually.
