Largs Piano Lessons

Having unsuccessfully tried to learn piano from a book, the benefit of having Colin as my tutor has been immeasurable. His feedback is always constructive and being able to send video/audio of my practice sessions has been great.

Colin also makes his pupils feel part of a communi...

Colin prepares his lessons ahead of time and shares material in advance plus notes for each of the sessions to track tasks and homework for the week ahead. Even now, at this challenging times, the live online classes are super engaging, motivati...
