Nina's School of Piano

I am an experienced teacher based in Portadown, with Grade 7 in piano (currently working towards Grade 8), Grade 5 in music theory, and grades in various other instruments such as flute and violin. I've also played in the Down Junior Orchestra, local Church band, and flute band.

With 4 years experience of teaching, I have a high success rate in entering pupils for exams and have received positive feedback from parents and pupils for the professional service and relaxed atmosphere.

Lessons cost £10 per each individual, half hour lesson. The first lesson is free and will only last 20 minutes, so we can see where you're at and talk about what you would like to do, whether it's pursue grades or just play for fun.

I use a range of tools in lessons to keep them light-hearted and encouraging, such as colouring in, helping pupils write their own songs, and musical games.

I also offer theory of music lessons, which can be incorporated into the lessons. We'll work through a workbook, and if you would like to, you can take exams in music theory. I also offer block advice sessions for pupils taking GCSE music.

I'm very flexible in terms of what you would like to do during lessons. Whether you're keen to work through the grades, or simply learn to play a favourite pop song, I try to keep it relaxed and fun.
