Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Dora is an accomplished musician and an excellent teacher! I had the privilege to work with her and I can wholeheartedly recommend her for her dedication, patience and attention to detail during her lessons.
Theodora has taught my 8-year-old son for a couple of years and both form a winning team. She has helped him to achieve his goals with patience and a bespoke methodology. She went the extra mile to ensure he passes the exam by travel to our home and increasing the lessons when required.
She always discusses with us (parents) the lessons in details, areas of improvement before committing to a plan. Her communication and interpersonal skills are excellent.
She exceeded our expectations during the Covid health crisis by moving the classes onto an online platform avoiding any disruption in my son learning.
Theodora is very flexible by structuring individual lessons based on client preferences and goals (preparing grades) however she is really strong teaching the repertoire and music theory.
Thank you Theodora.Dora has been my daughter's tutor for several years now. She is firm but kind, and she is flexible as well. She will push to make you better, but she also understands the needs of having fun with the piano. I would recommend her.
Theodora has been teaching my 2 daughters for over a year. She is an excellent piano teacher, confident and reliable. She always gives me feedback after each lesson and keeps me informed of their progress. She is able to work very well with children .
Theodora is an excellent technical piano teacher. She is able to break down tasks into manageable steps and to explain the theory simply and clearly. However, it is Theodora's style of teaching that makes her special - she is kind, thoughtful, warm and encouraging. We love working with Theodora and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others.
Piano teacher for my two sons, Theodora is patient and kind; her love of her subject shines through. She adapts her teaching style to suit their differing needs and is always reliable and punctual. I would highly recommend her.
