Home Tuition
Friendly & Patient Teacher
Emphasis on Reading (not just memorising)
Proven Teaching Strategies
All Styles Taught
Specialising in Learning Difficulties

Home Tuition

I teach pupils in the comfort of their own homes. Working in pupils’ own homes has helped me to create a relaxed, fun environment. I teache adults and children; however when teaching children, visiting the pupil's home has also helped me to maintain a good relationship with parents.

Friendly & patient tuition

I maintain that people tend to learn more if they like their teacher. For this reason, one of my central aims is to be highly approachable and patient with pupils.

Proven Teaching Strategies

I have spent the last 20 years carefully developing and fine-tuning my teaching strategies. I use clearly formulated goals in order to monitor the effectiveness of my teaching techniques. Making reference to clearly defined goals enables me to ensure that I am now able to achieve my aims in a fraction of the time it took me when he began teaching 20 years ago.

All Styles Taught

I teach all styles of music, including Classical and Pop. I teach reading music as well as teaching pupils how to build piano accompaniments for themselves. I have found that many pupils who are taught to read music do not actually learn to read properly, but simply memorise their pieces over time. I have therefore gone to great lengths to develop teaching strategies that ensure pupils who wish to read music are actually learning to read and not simply memorising pieces.

Specialising in Learning Difficulties

I have found that only around a third of pupils possess strong natural musical gifting. Working with pupils who struggle to learn musical skills can be a challenge. However, I have always maintained that the true test of a good teacher is whether or not she is able to teach the least gifted pupils.

Chess Lessons

I also teach online Chess lessons. For more information, please visit my online chess lessons website: https://philipewarren.wixsite.com/onlinechesslessons

Phil teaches all of my children to play piano whose ages range from 6 - 14. We were looking for a piano teacher who could inject some 'fun' into learning and to encourage the older children not to give up music in their teens. The children learn music they love, and have progressed quickly, building their confidence all the time. The younger children enjoy his calm and methodical approach. Phil is a great guy & a great teacher.

Phil is such a friendly, lovely, down to earth person. My 6 year old daughter enjoys her lessons very much. We have introduced him to our friend too.

Phil has been teaching my 5 year old son for about a year now. He mainly teaches him the piano but also the guitar for a short while during the lesson. He has recently started teaching my 3 year old daughter the piano for a few minutes a week. Phil has the patience and personality for teaching young children. He knows how to calm them down and get them playing! They always look forward to seeing him and showing him what they have practised. Both of my children can now read music notes: in about a year, the older one has progressed from not playing anything to playing simple songs using proper piano fingering for both hands. He can also play a few notes on the guitar. My daughter can also play a few simple pieces on the piano.

It was a very useful one hour session pointing out some of my faults.
