About Michelle
I am a piano tutor with over 14 years of experience and a Bachelor of Music in Jazz Piano. Music has always been my passion, especially composing and songwriting. I love sharing this passion with my students in a fun and engaging way. My teaching style is personalized to fit each student’s needs, whether they are school students, college students, adults, or professionals. I focus on building strong skills in chord theory, performance, sight-reading, and improvisation. These areas are essential for becoming a confident and creative pianist. I have helped students at all levels—from intermediate to advanced and even professional or expert players. Each student’s progress is important to me, and I adapt lessons to keep them motivated and challenged. Playing piano is not just about technique; it’s about expressing yourself through music. I aim to make every lesson enjoyable and rewarding. Whether you want to perform, compose, or simply enjoy playing, I am here to guide you. Let’s start your musical journey together and unlock your full piano potential. I look forward to helping you achieve your goals and discover the joy of music.

My teaching approach focuses on building a strong foundation in piano while keeping lessons fun and inspiring. I tailor each lesson to fit the student’s goals, whether they want to play classical pieces, jazz, pop, or explore creative music styles. Alongside practical piano skills, I include music theory to help students understand how music works. This makes learning easier and more meaningful. I prepare students for exams like ABRSM, Rockschool, and A-Levels, following the curriculum closely to ensure they are ready and confident. History lessons help students appreciate different music styles and composers, adding depth to their playing. I encourage creativity through composition and improvisation, helping students express themselves through music. I support learners who want to excel in jazz and pop piano by focusing on techniques and styles relevant to these genres. My lessons balance structured practice with flexibility, allowing students to explore their favorite music. I listen carefully to each student’s needs and adapt my teaching accordingly. Patience and positive feedback are key parts of my method. Whether a beginner or advanced player, students develop skills step-by-step while building a real passion for piano. My goal is to make every lesson engaging and rewarding, helping students reach their full potential.
