Hello! My name is Simon and I run Piano Lessons Belfast - a dedicated piano school located in Belfast, Northern Ireland welcoming students of all ages and abilities. I have many years teaching experienced, having gained a Music BA from the University of York. After completing my music degree I went on to become director of music at St. Thomas's church in York, where I ran the church's gospel choir.
Alongside my work as a musician both in York and now here in Belfast, I helped students to learn to play the piano, from beginner levels upwards. I am keen to ensure that my students learn to play the piano by playing the music that they listen to and inspired them to start playing the piano in the first place. I work hard to incorporate their prefered styles of music into our lessons and I offer lessons that cover jazz, classical and contemporary genres of music.
I would be delighted to help you to learn to play the piano whether you are a beginner student or are returning to playing the piano. For more information simply get in touch!
