The Piano Teacher Peter Wall ATCL (Lond) Newcastle

Thoroughly recommended if your eager to learn and appreciate the piano.

I have been learning Piano with Peter for well over 1 year now. Coming back to piano as an adult can be a very humbling experience. Peter's teaching style, however, has made the experience one to enjoy and remember.nnI have found Peter to be one of the most inspiring, passionate, encouraging and reliable teachers I have ever had. He provides direct and honest feedback about your playing, in a respectful manner and never lets you think that you cannot achieve your goals.nnPeter provides a well rounded musical education in his home studio, covering all styles of music from Classical to Jazz, theory, technical work, aural and sight reading. I would highly recommend Peter to any student of any age and level, because he takes the time to get to know you as an individual and adapts his teaching style to meet your needs and goals. I thoroughly enjoy every lesson I have with him, because of his wealth of knowledge and experience.

I started lessons with Peter having never played piano before. Within a few months I was playing movements from Mozart sonatas. More importantly, Peter taught me not just how to play the correct notes at the correct tempo – he taught me how to play the music. By using simple examples and analogies he helped me to understand complex passages, which meant that every lesson broadened my knowledge and appreciation of music which, in turn, made it easier and more fun to learn the music. Even now, almost 20 years since I had lessons with Peter, I still have his advice in mind when I play the piano, and I will always be grateful for the world of music he opened up to me.
