Feedback from students past and present. Here’s what others have said about taking piano lessons with Lucy:

Quotation markThe children have been taught by Lucy for over a year now and we are really pleased with their progress – Martha has just passed Grade 5 and George Grade 3. She relates very well to the children and manages to get the best out of them. We have found her to be very reliable , always willing to “go the extra mile” and would have no hesitation in recommending her – Philippa, Mum to Martha (12) and George (11)

Quotation markMy older daughter has been taught by Lucy for the last 2 – 3 years and I would wholeheartedly recommend her and often do! She’s brilliant with my daughter and has a great manner. Her timekeeping and communication is always good and she has not been a “pushy” teacher as we wanted it to be a casual hobby although we are now starting the grading process. She has also introduced specific pieces from musicals which are of interest to my daughter – Caroline, Mum of 1 daughter (8) and 1 son (6)

Quotation markI have been taking piano lessons with Lucy for a year & a half. I started as a complete beginner and during this time I have made a massive amount of progress. I put this down to Lucy being a highly skilled, understanding and motivating teacher, who very importantly makes the lessons fun & enjoyable. I love my lessons with Lucy & I would highly recommend her – Joanna (adult learner)

Quotation markWe are really pleased with Lucy’s teaching – she has developed a good rapport with my son, and has a lovely manner, as well as being very professional. As a parent, I get good feedback on his progress, and she sets him small pieces of work without putting any pressure on him, keeping him focused and interested – Shahnaz, Mum of 8 year old son

Quotation markI’ve been having lessons with Lucy for a few months now and would struggle to praise her higher really, I have always found her to be patient, encouraging, inspiring and fun. My musical knowledge before starting with Lucy was zero (bar an attempt at the recorder for a few weeks about 30 years ago!) and there’s been times when I’ve felt that maybe I’m not cut out for learning an instrument/to read music at a later age but whenever I have got to a piece that I’ve struggled with (and been convinced I’d never get!) she has offered different ideas and suggestions which has enabled me to work through and get it. This constant support has given me more confidence with learning and I can’t believe that after a fairly short time I’m able to actually play songs I’ve loved for years. I only wish I’d taken up the piano sooner now so if anyone’s reading this and not sure if it’s for them I would definitely say just go for it as I doubt you’d ever look back…Thank you, Lucy! – Nicola (adult learner)
