About Anushka
- What kind of experience do you have?
I'm a versatile musician and enjoy playing a wide range of music including blues, latin and pop piano alongside classical favourites. I trained classically as a pianist and cellist, and have been playing the piano for 20+ years. I've played in a wide range of ensembles, including string quartets, orchestras, jazz bands and choirs. I also write music and regularly perform with my own band.
During my time at art school, I continued to teach, play and write music (piano, cello and singing), and play in ensembles. I began teaching 5 years ago whilst studying for my degree, and have run workshops for adults and children as well as teaching privately. I specialise in teaching complete beginners to intermediate level. As a teacher and musician, it's important to me that pupils develop a rounded sense of musicianship so that they have fun learning and enjoy playing their instrument. Then, practising won't be a chore!
- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?
No, but I am happy to obtain this on your request.

- How much do you charge?
I charge £30/hr, £25/45 mins and £20/30 mins for private lessons at the student's house.
I welcome the opportunity for a 30 minute trial lesson, with no obligation to continue; for this I only ask for my travel expenses (usually £5).
- Where do you teach?
I teach in Redbridge, Newham, Barking, Havering, Tower Hamlets & Hackney
I teach at students' homes, and am happy to travel to most areas in East & Central London.
- When are you available?
I'm available to teach on weekdays and evenings. I'm flexible and will try to find a time that works for us both.
- Which ages and levels do you teach?
I specialise in teaching beginners to intermediate level (around Grade 4), and teach both children and adults. I can teach complete beginners as well as people who have some experience and would like to improve. I can prepare students for grades, or teach people who would like to play for enjoyment and just learn something new! It's great when pupils know what music that they want to play, and I'm happy to teach music that they bring to me. This has ranged from Bach to Billie Holliday classics; to blues, pop songs, and many Disney tunes! Of course, if your passion is developing a classical repertoire, then we can focus on that.
I start teaching children at age 6. I have lot of experience with children of all ages, and I recommend waiting until children are able to focus their attention before starting lessons. This varies greatly with each child, so I welcome a trial lesson where we could meet each other first.
I really enjoy teaching adults, and admire having the perseverance to take up an instrument later on. I appreciate the time constraints that often arise with having work commitments, and advise adult pupils to try to keep regular lessons even if it's sometimes difficult to squeeze in time for practise.
- Which qualifications do you prepare your students for?
Piano Grades 1-5
Music Theory Grades 1-5
I can also assist with extra tuition for Music GCSE.
I have most experience with ABRSM as I myself have sat Grades 1-8 with them; however I am happy to prepare students for the Trinity exam board if they would like.

I have been learning Piano with Anushka for over a year, and she has also been teaching my daughter for a few months. Anushka is very professional and always on time. She is an excellent teacher, who will vary teaching methods according to your learning capabilities. I really like the fact that she is always open to my suggestions. She is very knowledgeable and I enjoy her explanations very much.
With my daughter she has been great. She is strict but fair and has a lovely manner of encouraging progress.
She is a lovely person and good fun to learn with.
Anushka is an excellent piano teacher. She has the ability to make one feel comfortable in their ability and is always challenging me to be better. Anushka is a knowledgeable, energetic and fun teacher who imparts good techniques and at the same time instils a love of music. She is very professional and responsive yet warm in her communication style. I am looking forward to and enjoying every lesson with Anushka!
