Piano Lessons Heckmondwike

Darren is a brilliant teacher he's patient kind and makes lessons interesting and easy to learn and understand. He does not rush you he let's you learn at your own comfortable pace. He explains things in a very simple way. I would recommend him to any one young or old. I look forward to my lesson every week. Its my best half hour of the week.
