Student Testimonials
"My daughter has been having lessons with Leigh for about six months. She has made excellent progress and is already doing a grade exam. Leigh is very patient and a good teacher." - Jenny
"Maestro Music have been first class from day one, relaxed and easy going, the learning style is superb.

The flexability on dates and times has been very helpful." - Tim
"Very professional teaching. My daughter loves her lessons and her teacher must have the patience of a saint with her, as she is an easily distracted 7 year old. Other music teachers who have heard her play the Violin say she has been taught very well." - Lisa
"My daughter (aged 7) has had Piano lessons with Maestro Music for a few months and I am amazed with how much she has progressed in such a short time. Leigh provides fun, friendly lessons, which incorporate practical and theory tuition.

He is a patient, positive and encouraging teacher and his enthusiasm has helped boost my daughter's confidence and excitement to want to learn more.

I would highly recommend Leigh to others for Piano tuition. - Karen
