Piano teacher with 40 years of experience - classical, jazz, rock, pop, music theory or exams. Lessons online, in your home or at my home studio in Devon.

It is with great pleasure that I write this recommendation for Colin. Being an adult beginner, I wanted 1 on 1 in person lessons, found Colin after an on-line search for piano teachers in my area and have received his tuition for almost 2 years. Colin is a highly experienced teacher; selects pieces that perfectly match my abilities and his gentle and supportive nature makes his lessons extremely pleasurable and productive. Further, Colin has an incredible depth and breadth of knowledge covering all aspects of music and, coupled with his masterly piano playing, makes his lessons very informative. In summary, I am delighted with the progress I have made under his tutelage and am greatly impressed with Colin’s teaching style. I highly recommend him.

Colin has been an inspirational teacher and mentor to our son for the last nine years and has never missed a lesson!

Colin has an incredible breath and depth of musical experience and knowledge both playing and teaching.

His incredible talent and ability as a pianist and musician means he is able to play and teach a huge range of repertoire; From classical to Jazz to funk and pop, even hymns and more…

His patience, infectious passion for music and fun easy going nature means he is able to connect with and teach any age any style. We have recommended Colin as a teacher to many friends and their children over the years and they all think he’s brilliant too!

I have known Colin for a long time and I can tell you that he is a kind, patient and gifted teacher.

If you want an experienced piano teacher with a very high success rate at piano exams or if you always wanted to play piano but never got around to it then Colin is the one you need.

It's one thing to be a talented pianist but it's another thing to be a great piano teacher - Colin is both!

Would definitely recommend!

Colin’s teaching style and friendly attitude has made learning the piano a true joy. I look forward to my lessons every week!
He understands how people learn and develop musically, and his encouraging and knowledgeable approach to teaching makes the lessons feel fulfilling and rewarding.
I have had in-person and online lessons with Colin throughout my tuition and he is always flexible and supportive.
Highly recommend, 5 stars!
