Piano Lessons in French or in English from a Qualified Bilingual Music Teacher!  ~ Beginners to Intermediate ~

Highly recommend Sarah! Relaxed teaching style and good lesson structure focused on improving speech and grammar.

Sarah is a brilliant teacher - patient, encouraging and makes the lessons fun and informative. I needed to learn some French quickly for a new job and she’s been really helpful. I especially love her knowledge and insight on language and gender.

Sarah was amazing working with my son on his French VCE (senior secondary school qualification). Her warm encouragement and excellent tuition went a long way to giving him the confidence and skills he needed to achieve a great result.

Sarah has been an excellent French tutor and has helped my daughter achieve impressive results in her French studies in secondary school. She is professional and reliable in all of the dealings we have had with her, and always has a friendly, enthusiastic attitude towards learning that has really helped encourage my daughter to give her learning her very best. Sarah's natural warmth is always evident and her understanding of the curriculum and standards expected of students were instrumental in helping my daughter achieve her goals and I highly recommend her services.

Our two children (aged 4 and 7 years) have been doing piano lessons with Sarah for over a year now after she was recommended to us by another family. We have done a mix of in-person and online and now fully online lessons.
Since we are a bilingual French/ English family, Sarah gives the classes in French and this has been great for our kids’ language skills as well as their musical knowledge.
Sarah is engaging, patient and highly knowledgeable, and experienced in teaching kids. She has exceptional multi-instrumental skills and has been great for teaching our children tone, singing and reading music, scales and theory, and of course playing songs.
We would highly recommend Sarah’s piano lessons in French or English!

Sarah was amazing with helping me learn French. She was very supportive and encouraging whilst still pushing to do my very best in my final years of high school. I would highly recommend her as a tutor.

As the coordinator of the EFM After School Program at Caulfield Junior College, I’ve had the pleasure of working with Sarah Carso, who has been running our music classes in French for primary students.

Sarah’s classes have been a true highlight of our program. She brings wonderful energy, creativity, and warmth to every session — blending music, movement, and French language learning in a way that completely captivates the children. Her lessons are joyful and inclusive, and she has an amazing ability to engage students of all levels.

The feedback from families has been consistently positive, with many parents commenting on how much their children look forward to her classes each week. It’s been fantastic to see the students grow in confidence — both musically and in their French expression — while having so much fun.

We feel very fortunate to have Sarah as part of our after-school program. Her enthusiasm, professionalism, and passion for teaching make her classes a wonderful addition to our offerings. I would highly recommend Sarah’s French music program to any school or community looking for something both educational and inspiring.

Sarah was our twins' piano teacher for many years, and taught them in French and English. The she adapted her approach to each of our kids needs and style, and was able to keep them motivated. She is reliable, trustworthy and an professional musician and teacher. She is an expert in her field. Sarah also taught them the ukulele for a couple of Xmas concerts. She had a fantastic ability to engage with children and understand their strengths and gaps, to then help them perform at their best. I have recommended her services to many parents.

Sarah worked with my 2 oldest kids during senior high school for weekly online French lessons from 2020- 2023 and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the progress they made during this time. I believe the lessons were engaging, well-structured, and really tailored to their level.
What really stood out was the wonderful rapport Sarah built with both kids — they always seemed to look forward to their lessons each week and felt comfortable asking questions and practicing their French. I believe her tutoring helped build their confidence I both writing and speaking and prepared them well for the exams.
I would highly recommend Sarah to any person or family looking for a lovely, friendly and effective tutor.

I'm a university professor and began to learn piano only recently as an adult. I cannot recommend Sarah to highly! As an adult learner working with Sarah has brought me true joy and satisfaction. Sarah is thoughtful, expert, well-organised, highly engaged and able to craft a path into music that builds out from understanding the individuality of my learning style.....and also just making it fun. I look forward to every lesson. THANK YOU SARAH.

Sarah is an amazing tutor. Not only is she Parisien and will help you with the correct accent but she is a teacher and goes through methodically the grammar side of learning French. I cannot recommend her highly enough

Sarah has been an amazing music teacher for my two sons for several years, teaching them guitar and ukulele. Over the years, she taught them online and in person.

We chose to have all lessons in French, which was a great way for my sons to connect to the language in a different setting.

She has played a big part in my sons’ passion for music. I highly recommend Sarah as a music teacher.

Sarah has been teaching our daughter piano for a few years (both in person and online). She is very patient, gentle and understanding of her needs. She engages with her in an age-appropriate manner that helps her to concentrate on the task at hand.

Sarah has always provided valuable feedback on our daughter's progress, with recommendations for improvement. Sarah is very clear in her communication regarding fees, availability and lesson scheduling, the latter of which she has also been very flexible.

Sarah has a fantastic voice and musical ability. We are very satisfied with her as a piano teacher, and would highly recommend her.

Both of my children have had the pleasure of learning music with Sarah here in Melbourne, Australia. My eldest took guitar lessons for several years, and my youngest piano. Having a French teacher was such a wonderful bonus, as all the lessons were conducted entirely in French.

Sarah is a talented and pedagogical tutor who perfectly combines technique, theory, and pleasure, not the traditional French method that spends the first year only on reading music. Under her guidance, my kids not only learned a lot but truly enjoyed every lesson.

Although we’re sad she’s returning to Europe, we’re very happy for her and wish her all the best. Sarah is an outstanding teacher, and we highly recommend her to any family looking for an inspiring and passionate music tutor.

I highly recommend Sarah. She is an amazing teacher. She has been teaching my daughter for a year.

Sarah is such a knowledgeable, fun, caring, and thoughtful tutor. She helped me achieved my French DELF B2 certificate and was so patient and supportive — I learnt so much from her. Can highly recommend, you won’t regret it!

Sarah was an amazing French tutor! She taught me for a few years online until I decided to stop learning. She was very professional but also friendly and nonjudgmental and made me feel at ease, the best kind of environment to learn in! I would recommend her to anybody. You would be so lucky to have her.
