London

Hampstead Piano Academy is a private music school in Hampstead London that provides one to one piano tuition at all levels and ages, from young beginners to enthusiastic adults. Piano lessons in Hampstead take place at our studio in NW3. It is based in a quiet street within walking distance to public transport and nearby parking. Additionally, our piano studio is located in close proximity to surrounding areas such as St. John’s Wood, Golders Green and the London borough of Camden: Hampstead Village, West Hampstead, Swiss Cottage or Belsize Park. Our classes include individual piano lessons in classical, jazz and improvisation, as well as tutorials to prepare ABRSM, Trinity College and LCM theory and practical exams at all levels. Being a soloist can often be a lonely pursuit so we also offer piano duet lessons (ideal for siblings, couples, friends or neighbours) and music playgroup sessions for the little ones. Each lesson is carefully planned and our pupils get the teacher’s undivided attention. The learning process is tracked weekly and the students can request a termly report: a personalized guidance to know what to practice and how to do it. Likewise, Hampstead Piano Academy organises public concerts where pupils can showcase what they have achieved through hard work, dedication and fun. Prizewinners of international competitions, our piano teachers hold Master’s Degrees from London’s most prestigious colleges and conservatoires such as the Royal College of Music and Trinity Laban Conservatoire. Their performance experience, not only as soloists but also as a professional four hands piano duo, provides the students with a broader understanding of music making. Hampstead Piano Academy is open Monday to Sunday, 9 am to 9 pm. Get in touch to book a consultation lesson with one of our teachers.

Piano Lessons North London

My name is Pippa King and I have been teaching piano ever since I was 16 (I’m now the wrong side of 40). I studied piano to Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) Grade 8 standard and also have ABRSM Grade 7 Musicianship, the highest Musicianship Grade at the time I sat it. I also have Grade 7 Recorder, Grade 5 Oboe both ABRSM qualifications and A Level Music. I have recently made the move from sunny Hull in Yorkshire to North London. (I am now based in N6, in between Crouch End and Highgate Village, very different to Hull and very nice too). I left some great pupils behind but am very much looking forward to teaching in London and already have a timetable that is filling up with equally great students, some being adults but mostly school students – there is never a wrong age and always a right age to start playing the piano! My emphasis is absolutely that learning music and piano should be fun, enjoyable and rewarding. Students learn at their own speed and are able to explore areas of music that interest them as well as learning a sound grounding in past and modern popular piano music and good rudiments. I worked for Hull Music Service teaching piano and keyboard where I also supported Music GCSE students from 2002 to 2007, when I left to concentrate on my private teaching practice. I have a very high success rate with practical, theory and musicianship exams though sitting exams is not compulsory. See FAQs for more info. I am a registered teacher with the ABRSM, a member of the Musicians Union and have an Enhanced Certificate to work with children from the Disclosure and Barring Service (formerly known as CRB check, now a DBS check). I also played keyboard for Hessle Ceilidh Band for over 10 years who were based in East Yorkshire – moving to London makes this now just about impossible (!) – and I worked in a Hull high school from 2016-2018, teaching piano/keyboard to support the V-Cert course there. Previously I have directed a recorder group entering music festivals, I played oboe with the Sheffield Philharmonic Orchestra and I have accompanied instrumental exams and music festivals. I teach on Mondays to Fridays from 3.30pm until about 7pm and on a Saturday. I charge £15 for half and hour/£30 for an hour… See FAQS for more info. I can truly say I love passing on my passion for music. I want my pupils to be musically curious, inspired, interested and eager – to enjoy music, to be musicians and accomplished pianists. As with anything regular practice is essential but let’s make learning fun! Everyone learns at a different speed and in a different way, enjoying different aspects of music – this is what makes my job so very interesting.
