Hi, I'm Jo!
I am a pianist and an organist. I have obtained grade 8 electronic organ with the London College of Music and grade 8 piano with the Associated Board of the Royal School of Music. I have been teaching music to children of all ages for 15 years, first of all teaching piano, keyboard and music theory. After intensive training I then began teaching groups of children aged 4-6. Having gained skills and knowledge in delivering music education to children from as young as 4, I set up my piano studio in my home to offer tailored one-to-one lessons to adults and children aged 3 and above. I believe it is important for pianists to be musicians and so have British Kodály Certificates for Early Years One and Primary One Methodology, Repertoire and Teaching Technique. I continue my professional development on the Piano Teachers' Course and membership of the Curious Piano Teachers. I have an enhanced DBS check with a barred list check and have received training on child safeguarding through the NSPCC. I am a Professional member of the European Piano Teachers' Association and have Public Liability Insurance of up to £10,000,000. |
