Our daughter has come a long way since she started attending the Stringnote Academy. The best music academy you can send your child to! Incredibly professional and talented teachers. They have been brilliant in helping our daughter continue the sessions online during the lock down and they kept the same quality of sessions. Highly recommended.

My daughter joined Stringnote over 3 years ago and I have seen her love for music and piano grow exponentially through the excellent teaching and approach of the academy. You can tell that Marcello and Sylvia are passionate about their students and know how to nurture and encourage. The Fulham Tree method motivates the children as they move through mini grades before giving the Grade 1 piano exam.
