Teaching Testimonials

"For 15 years I witnessed Chris teach our students at the School of Music, UEA with utmost commitment, dedication and enjoyment. He has taught, nurtured and mentored students of all levels; and has been able to realise their full potential." 
Prof. Sharon Choa, former Director of Music, School of Music, University of East Anglia 
"Piano lessons with Chris are a joy. I returned to the piano, with no great expectations, more than fifty years after passing Grade 8 while at school. Chris has encouraged me, with patience and professionalism, and I have been astonished at the way in which my playing has developed. He is sensitive both to the music and to me as a person. He has helped me to develop confidence in my own ability, a new understanding of the piano and of performance, and a new delight in composers whose work I thought I knew well. So much to explore!"
Dr Dilys Wadman
