REVIEWS
Great Tutor
Lorraine is an amazing musician and tutor, she is so passionate about music and so invested in her students.
Old school ? yes,,,, she expects her pupils to work hard, to consistantly practice and to speak up if they need help. She bonds well with her pupils and wants music to be fun. Lorraine often organises music events for the pupils to get together and play to each other to help build confidence prior to the pupils exams. She also arranges theatre trips and invites all her pupils and families along to local live music events.
She has taught my daughter piano from Grade 1 to Grade 7 to date. She looks forward to her lessons and loves Lorraines teaching style. Fabulous tutor 🙂
