PIANO TEACHER AND ACCOMPANIST
MUSIC THEORY TUTOR
OXFORD UNIVERSITY GRADUATE
BARBICAN, LONDON
I am a piano teacher, piano accompanist, and music tutor based in Barbican, London.
I studied piano with Stephen Coombs at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama Junior Department before attending the University of Oxford, where I graduated with a First Class degree in Music.
I work with students and performers of all ages and experience levels, both in person and online.
I have over 8 years of experience teaching piano and music theory to adults and children, both in person and online.
My students range from complete beginners to advanced pianists preparing for ABRSM Grade 8 and beyond.
Lessons are tailored to each student’s goals, whether that means building confidence at the keyboard, preparing for exams and performances, developing technique, or discovering new repertoire.
I offer private piano lessons across Central London and online, with a free trial lesson available for new students.
“Catherine is so much more than just a fantastic music teacher, she is a reliable and supportive friend and tutor with anything music or non-music related, and she is filled to the brim with kindness. She adapts her teaching to each student to make the journey of learning music fun, understandable and engaging. Catherine's GSCE tutoring has made me feel more confident with music and want to learn more. She has helped me understand the music and also how composers think and work. While not only being one of the brightest people I have ever met with a knowledge for music that is astonishing beyond words, Catherine is kind, funny, compassionate, and a shoulder to lean on. I am so lucky to be taught by her, I feel inspired, delighted and enriched by the end of every session with Catherine. I can’t wait to keep learning from her. I truly believe I have found the best teacher.”
