Hello, I’m Alex. Thanks for visiting my profile!
I am a musician and have been since before the age of five. After 25+ years of playing the piano, passing on the knowledge and experience gained in that time has led me to teaching and helping to inspire others on their music journey and experience with learning an instrument.

Piano Lessons
Working with Alex has been amazing. I didn't really know what to expect but I must say it's been better than I would have expected and I am looking forward to having more sections with Alex. I'd highly recommend Alex to anyone. More...

Why should our clients choose you?
Bringing my whole self to the world of teaching helps connect the experience with passing the grades, playing in front of others, playing in bands, theatre shows, musical directing, and all of the behind the scenes hard work it took to achieve the glamourous side, with the new and upcoming musician to show how both the theory side and the practical sides of music are crucial to one another.
Successful completion of the ABRSM Piano Syllabus up to Grade 7 and Music Theory to Grade 5 opened a lot of doors for me and I am sure it will for anyone who wants to explore that path. However, even if grades are not of interest, simply learning just for the fun of it comes with all the same benefits as learning for grades.
The benefits of learning the piano in particular spread much further than just the black and white keys. It is not just for kids, it’s for adults too! It has been studied and discovered that there are many intellectual, emotional, personal, social, and physical benefits to learning and playing the piano. Why not call me, or send a message to discuss these benefits in more detail before you decide to commit to lessons?
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
My teaching practice is in person and online. For in person lessons, I cover the Essex area, specifically Chelmsford, Harlow, Braintree, Witham, Halstead, and Maldon. Of course, with the internet there is no boundaries for online lessons so if you are further a field that is the option for you! Try not to be too skeptical about online lessons, they are of exactly the same benefit as in person lessons, just that we are not sitting side by side.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
The provision of online classes helps to protect those who are vulnerable. Whereas in person lessons can be a little more tricky, the measures that can be put in place remain as per the initial government guidance of hand washing before a lesson, sitting further apart than usual, and ventilating the area as much as possible. If there are any further requirements that you have, these can also be accommodated for the duration of our time together.
