Marco has been teaching my 15 year old son for a few years now. His teaching methods are extremely effective and he is an inspiring and committed tutor. I highly recommend him as a piano and music production teacher. |

I've been studying piano for many years on and off and always found it hard to progress past a certain level. As a vocalist I was looking for a piano teacher with street knowledge of performance and arrangements to help me reach the next level. After 6 months of lessons I can see a definite improvement in my playing and song arrangements. I see Marco as a coach and mentor not just a piano teacher. |

Now I finally get it |

As a professional drummer and drum teacher I've always been very comfortable with
the concept of rhythm and how music is structured around it. But I never really got
around to fully understanding scales, chords etc until I took a music theory course with
Marco. Now I finally get it and I never thought it could be so simple. Marco's approach
makes things very easy to understand and I actually have a lot of fun working with it
now. |

"I started playing the piano at aged 10, taught by my grandmother. I enjoyed learning
how to play pop songs, but she often complained that I wasn’t really reading the music.
Regrettably as a teenager I dropped the piano as it wasn’t cool with my mates, and
only took it up again many years later. I tried to teach myself and found songs and
chords off the internet, but I got stuck. My playing sounded much more advanced than
my early music training, but it never really sounded good and I didn’t know why. I
downloaded some on-line lessons but the lack of practical support and regular face to
face lessons meant I didn’t make any progress. I was at a stale mate.
I loved to play and knew I needed lessons but I hated the fact that you got into trouble
for playing a crochet instead of a semi quaver. I wanted to put my own twist on a song
to my taste, not the person who wrote the music. If it sounded good to me, I was
happy, but classically trained music teachers usually do not agree. You must do exactly
what the music tells you to do. I got discouraged and stopped playing.
Then I found Marco. He is exactly the teacher I have always dreamed of. He is happy
for me to only learn songs I want to learn, and play them how I want to play them. He
also teaches at the pace I learn (slow or fast). There is no set routine of boring stuff.
But very importantly he has brought discipline and structure into my playing. As a
properly qualified piano teacher, he has helped to get a more professional sound to my
playing that I have never had before, and has a great mix of theory, practise exercises
(scales etc) and fun songs. A perfect balance.
Marco is a great teacher who is very encouraging yet provides constructive and honest
feedback, where improvement is needed. He is helping me teach myself so I am not
stuck between lessons and I couldn’t recommend him more highly!" |
