Music Lessons

Considering taking music lessons for yourself or your child? You’ve come to the right place, with a range of subjects available; Piano, Vocals, Bass Guitar, Music Theory and of course Music GCSE and 16+ Music Courses Support. I have a large knowledge of exam paths and various tutor books so I can advise you how best to progress.

Lessons are tailor-made to suit your interests and goals. In each lesson you will be set clear goals for practise and improving your musicianship.

Each year I enter students into both Trinity and ABRSM Exams, students achieve excellent results and progress well. Which exam board you study is up to you and I can advise which will suit you best. I have taught all the way to Grade 8 and everyone who has sat Grade 8 with me has passed it. Equally you don’t have to study exams, these are your lessons to study what interests you.

If as a parent or student you’re totally new to music education, I can explain how the Grades work, UCAS points for grade 6-8 etc.

I have an early year’s deal for children under 7/8 years old so they can access shorter lessons which are age appropriate.

I also teach a large number of adults and retired adults and design my approach around what you’d like to do.

Since 2022, I have been teaching GCSE Music privately, in August 2023 my student achieved a 8 on their GCSE Music. if you want to do your music GCSE outside of school I can facilitate this. If you are doing your GCSE in school I’m happy to help with all aspects of NEA (Performance and Composition), and the listening exam.

I have a wealth of experience with additional support needs, (ASD, VI, ADHD) there are no barriers to learning with me and everyone is welcome. I can speak basic French and teach using solfège (Do-Si). If money is a barrier to accessing music lessons please get in touch and I will see what I can do.

“My daughter, Alice attended piano lessons with Nikki, her teaching method is very effective and she is a very attentive teacher. She has an excellent rapport with her students and manages easily to make her lessons fun and not stressful for children. Last year, Alice prepared for her Grade 3 ABRSM piano exam and passed with merit. She enjoyed her piano lessons and went with pleasure to the concerts organised by Nikki. She especially loved going backstage to Made In Dagenham where Nikki was the Musical Director. Alice was happy to help Nikki in the pit and could see another side of a professional musician’s work. We wish Nikki a lot of success with her professional projects.” - Natalia mother of Alice

“I have been having singing lesson with Nikki for two years and cannot recommend her too highly. After suffering from throat problems around ten years ago, I had begun to think that my singing days were over, but Nikki has taught me how to look after my voice and how to sing out with confidence. The lessons are great fun and I am now tackling songs which I had never dreamed I would be capable of singing. Thanks Nikki” - Sandra, Adult Vocal Student
