Report
Alan is a brilliant teacher and has made every effort to continue lessons despite the challenges of lockdown over the past few months. I have picked up playing again at an intermediate level after several years of not playing at all and have seen significant progress in my ability and confidence. Alan has a fantastic technical knowledge of music and has helped me to develop pieces beyond the notes written on the sheet music and broaden my overall understanding of key signatures and the general makeup of music - would really recommend if you are looking for a new teacher!
