What parents and fellow teachers have to say…
Rhiannon is a wonderfully gifted music teacher and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking a fun, creative and experienced tutor. My son has difficulty concentrating and focusing, and would be incapable of sitting still at a piano for 30 minutes. After taking the time to get to know his learning style, Rhiannon has been able to tailor the lessons to his individual needs to ensure that the lessons are accessible to him by incorporating movement and games, as well as practical piano practice. Rhiannon's lessons are full of energy, enthusiasm and she has seemingly endless patience. I asked my son for his own review and he described Rhiannon as 'lovely, has the best ideas and she a great teacher'. I honestly can't recommend her enough.

Rhiannon has an infectious energy and enthusiasm when teaching the children. My son really enjoyed his lessons and has remembered much of the content several months later.
This is good quality teaching both in content and approach. Highly recommend!

Rhiannon has been teaching my son piano lessons since he was 4 (both in-person and online when needed to through the pandemic). Not only is she a brilliantly talented musician herself, she has an energetic and accessible approach to teaching young children with heaps of creative ways to engage them. Her weekly notes from the lessons mean we always know what we should be working on in the week and my son really enjoys his lessons and seeing his progress. Having learnt the piano myself for many years I am particularly fussy when it comes to music teachers for my children and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rhiannon.
NICKY K., piano parent
Rhiannon is great with children and my daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting piano lessons in the new year. From having no piano experience she is now progressing well in both practical and theory. Would highly recommended her.
GERALDINE S., piano parent
Despite there being so many music teachers around, there are only a couple I could genuinely recommend. Rhiannon is top of this list! As well as being a talented and successful musician, she is an imaginative, passionate, versatile and experienced teacher. She covers for my preschool music classes, Mini Music Makers, and everyone loves her sessions so much, commenting on her energy, the thought that goes into each session, as well as her natural way with kids. I know the same care goes into her private teaching and she is always talking about the latest ways she has discovered for making piano and singing lessons more fun. It’s hard to imagine anyone could be as animated and excited while talking about piano practice incentives as Rhiannon is! Would highly recommend her as a music teacher for all ages.
LUCIA VERNON-LONG, music teacher and founder of Mini Music Makers
I covered for Rhiannon while she was on maternity leave, and it was wonderful! All of her students are very well rounded not only in their chosen instrument, but also in music theory and musicianship. Even the very littlest ones were able to tell me all about where the notes live, and how to sit properly at the piano. Some of the wonderful things your student will learn from Rhiannon (as well as their instrument!) include confidence, self assurance, independent and critical thinking, good manners, open mindedness, and a thirst for knowledge. She is a fantastic musician and teacher.
ERIN ALEXANDER, local music teacher
Rhiannon is wonderful, simply lovely and really enthusiastic. Rhiannon started teaching my daughter piano about 6 months ago, Sofia has gone from not knowing a key on the piano to playing very well in such a short time as well as being able to read the music she is playing. Sofia has found her one to one lessons fun and enjoyable yet learning at the same time. I would highly recommend Rhiannon for music lessons. She is professional and has a fantastic connection to her students.
AIMEE K, piano parent
Freya plays ‘music class’ at home all the time now and instructs her Daddy in the different exercises. It has been brilliant for her confidence in general and as a piano enthusiast myself it has been great to spark her musical interest and enthusiasm.
NIKKI W., Mini Musicians parent
Thank you SO much for doing this course for this age group. Gabriel and I really enjoyed it and we will definitely keep our ears open to the instruments played when listening to music.
MARIA L, Mini Musician parent
Rhiannon taught my daughter in an online mini musicians course which I would highly recommend as an introduction to music. She provided lots of fun material and my daughter went from being initially nervous to volunteering answers in the lessons and looking forward to it each week. Great teacher and great course!
