Easy experience with Monica to find an instructor and book lessons for myself and my daughter. The instructor (Lizzie) is great, friendly and able to adapt well to our very beginner levels, very patient and encouraging. Billing and payments are also simple, and scheduling very personalised directly with the instructor. More...

Monica is very professional and well organised. It has been a pleasure to use her services which my 7 year old daughter really likes as she keeps wanting to proceed with lessons and you can see progress each time. I would highly recommend.

I had a great experience with Monica and her team! I got my husband piano lessons for Christmas, and Monica set him up with a great teacher - Nuno. He's made such progress and really enjoyed his lesson. My husband was mostly self-taught prior to his lessons, and he really appreciates Nuno's patience in helping to correct some not-so-great habits. Would definitely recommend Monica's business to help you find a good teacher. More...

Monica is hugely professional and a pleasure to deal with. My wife’s tutor is really good, very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and is helping her to explore other genres as well as the classical music. And very punctual and patient too!

Monica has been teaching our 6-year old son over the past six months and we have loved watching his love for the piano grow over that time. Monica is patient and encouraging and makes the lessons enjoyable which is very important to keep the attention of an active six-year old boy! Monica is reliable, thorough and very organised and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to other families! More...

We can't say enough good things about Monica Frank, who taught my 10-year-old son for about a year before she moved to London (and we cried). She is professional, patient and so talented! Her thoughtful lesson plans and teaching methods gave my son on a great start to learning the piano. She is awesome! More...

When I decided to re-start my piano lessons after a 35-year break (!!), I had the great fortune of finding Monica through a local music performance/teaching academy. We hit if off right away – she is patient, kind, thorough, knowledgeable and patient! She tailored music selection to my interests but also steered me towards learning new pieces and genres as well as always providing instruction on music theory and essential foundations and technique.

"After I retired at age 69, I took piano lessons from Monica from 2011 until 2017 when she moved to England. She was quite patient with me, and continuously made excellent suggestions on how I could improve. Monica simply inspired me to fall in love with playing the piano. Without any hesitation, I would recommend Monica Frank as a piano teacher." More...

Monica and I went to the same university and graduated only a year apart. We took many pedagogy and piano literature courses together. She was always (and continues to be) a very impressive performer as well as an intelligent and thoughtful person. I would strongly encourage anyone in search of a piano teacher to study with Monica!

What do you love most about your job?
We love spending time with animals, and I especially miss my own dog from the states, so it's been great to look after other people's pets. Walking dogs is a great way for us to get exercise and say hi to other dogs and neighbors.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I had initially advertised dog walking services thinking it would be a good, casual way to get some time with dogs again after leaving my own dog back in America with my family. I was pleasantly surprised at how many people were interested in booking with me, and now Dan and I are enjoying working with our many clients.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have had dogs in my life since I was a child, and have researched in detail the proper way to care for dogs. Dan and I have been caring for dogs professionally since I moved to London in August 2017, and we are proud to say we've received many strongly positive reviews from our clients. We also have a listing on a website called DogBuddy, which is linked here so potential clients can read what other dog owners have said about us: https://uk.dogbuddy.com/MLOII
Dog Walking
We offer dog walking for £10 per hour, and we’re looking for more clients. The dogs would be walked together in a pack, and we offer walk times between 30 minutes and 2 hours. We ask that, whenever possible, owners schedule a meet and greet with us before booking to ensure everyone is comfortable with the situation; we don't usually accept last minute requests from new clients. We also only walk dogs who are friendly, since we frequently walk more than one dog with us at a time and can't have antisocial/aggressive behavior. We’ve been fortunate to get a high volume of requests, so if you’re interested in finding a walker for your dog, send us a message to reserve a spot!
