Holistic Approach to Learning

Empowering all pianists to play freely with skill and confidence

  • "In the 4 years Serena has been teaching Frankie, we have found her to be a most inspiring teacher with her bubbly personality, her expertise in teaching all styles of piano, and her firm, but cheerful encouragement of practice and good piano habits. Serena has become a mentor and role model for Frankie, always helping her to move forward and to play to the best of her abilities. Thank you to Serena for all of her hard work and dedication, and making piano such a positive and fun experience."

    - Kate D. (Parent of Frankie)

    “Serena is an awesome teacher that manages to make things fun when teaching. I have learnt a lot in each of her lessons and I would recommend my teacher to friends if they need lessons as well. She has helped me achieve a high distinction in my first theory exam. One of my favourite teachers!”

    - Jocelyn H. (Student)

  • "I love the way Serena gently but firmly encourages her students. With a huge variety of music, she gives them the opportunity, the tools and the techniques to be the best they can, or want, to be. She also gives her students the opportunity to participate in a variety of festivals held throughout the year."

    - Wendy R. (Grandparent of Lilith R.)

    "Serena and I have so much fun in lessons – she isn’t just a teacher, she’s a friend. Serena makes sure she knows the students’ boundaries and pushes them as far as they are capable. I have never had a better teacher."
