What my students have to say.... 
Rachael has taught all three of my children over the last five years, and I couldn't have hoped for a better teacher. Her mixture of patience and love of music has really inspired them all, and they all enjoy and look forward to their lessons immensely. She has tailored her teaching to their different personalities to get the most out of them, and she just seems to get the different ways they approach the piano. My oldest son won a music scholarship to Trinity, which was undoubtedly due to Rachael's amazing teaching, and I'm very much hoping to find time to have lessons with her myself at some point! I couldn't recommend Rachael highly enough.

As an adult beginner I’ve found Rachael’s lesson’s to be encouraging and inspirational, with just the right amount of rigour to keep me moving forward at a good pace. As I've progressed to higher grades I’ve come to appreciate more fully the depth of her knowledge and how well she tailors her teaching to the individual student.

Rachael is a very friendly teacher and her lessons are well organised. My daughter has really progressed since starting with her over a year ago and really enjoys the lessons. I have also started taking lessons as a complete beginner. Rachael has been thorough in teaching me the basics of reading music, she is also very patient and I am enjoying learning with her. I would definitely recommend her to budding pianists of all ages.

I started taking piano lessons with Rachael 7 years ago aged 8. I am now studying towards my ABRSM grade 7. I always look forward to my piano lessons with Rachael. She helps me find music that I not only enjoy playing but that challenges me too. She is thoughtful and cares about her students a lot.

My children have loved being taught by Rachael for years! She is fun, patient and ensures that the lessons remains unpressured and they always enjoy themselves, but they have made fantastic progress.

Rachael is an excellent teacher, she encourages my children to do their best and gets the best out of them as a result. She prepares the children thoroughly for exams so that they are confident, and knows exactly when they are ready to take exams so that they progress at the right speed. She has given them an outstanding grounding in music theory which has already benefited them when learning other instruments. The children enjoy her lessons and they are the right balance of fun and serious learning.

My daughter and I both have lessons with Rachael. She is very organised and professional and most importantly, extremely patient and encouraging. She has also been very flexible in adjusting her lesson content to fit our needs. We enjoy participating in the end of year students’ concert, which she organises to showcases students’ achievements and to help overcome performance nerves. My daughter also particularly loves Rachael’s music appreciation and composition holiday workshops.

Rachael has taught my daughter for six years and has managed to maintain Isabella's interest and enthusiasm throughout, with a steady progression through each grade level. Now 13 years old and working on Grade 4, Isabella can see really see the benefits. She recently said "It means I do well in music at school and I’ve found something that I’m passionate about.” I am very grateful to Rachael for continuing to teach my daughter the piano and I would not hesitate to recommend her.
