For Parents
With many years of experience teaching and a natural sense of humour, Paul makes lessons fun! Children explore their interests, develop skills, and learn music theory at a pace that suits them.
Music lessons have many benefits: they help children develop confidence and focus, and regular practice develops fine and gross motor skills.
