Linda's Piano Tuition Newport Piano Lessons Reviews

I’m really glad I chose Linda as my piano teacher. I started with absolutely no musical background, so I was a bit nervous at first. With Linda’s guidance, after just 10 lessons, I learned how to read music, understand it, and gradually play with expression and life. Linda has very strong musical knowledge and explains things clearly with a lot of patience. She adapts her teaching to each student, which makes learning feel comfortable and encouraging. The 30-minute lesson each week is always something I look forward to, because every class comes with real takeaways. I highly recommend Linda to anyone who truly wants to learn music.

Linda is a fantastic piano teacher, patient, encouraging, and really clear when explaining both technique and theory. I'm an adult learner and I’ve improved a lot, things make clear sense since starting lessons so much that I always look forward to them. Would definitely recommend.

I started taking lessons 6 months ago as a total novice. I can’t recommend Linda highly enough. My progress in only 6 months, for me is just incredible. I’m playing so many things, reading music, understanding what I’m playing at my current level. Linda has a great manner of not only teaching but really helping me to understand the piano and reading music. It’s such a fabulous instrument, and challenging at times but Linda makes it simple, fun and pushes me through each lesson. Thanks Linda, let’s see where we get to in an other 6 months! Anyone wishing to learn just contact Linda you won’t regret it!

When I started Piano I couldn’t read any music whatsoever and now a few years later I have a distinction in Piano theory and a merit at Grade 1 and am now into Grade 2. This all thanks to Linda’s tuition. She is patient, extremely knowledgeable and encourages me to push my abilities. She also teaches my father and my daughter so has taught 3 generations within one family.

My daughter Lilian has greatly enjoyed learning the piano with Linda. Linda is very patient and her lessons are always enjoyable. Lilian looks forward to coming to each lesson every week and has progressed wonderfully. After missing years of tuition through the covid epidemic, Linda has successfully managed to get her back on course for a successful musical future. Linda is very professional.

Thanks to Linda, I have benefited and made great strides in my piano learning! In a little over a year my skill and theory have soared all thanks to her patience and knowledge. She's very pleasant and all of her lessons are enjoyable while being at my own pace, she's also given me a lot of exciting opportunities. The piano is now a big part of my life and it's all thanks to my teacher.

Linda is very professional and committed in her job. She is very punctual and more focused in delivering lessons, also communicates promptly and advice about every thing needed to be done in time. Because of her sincere effort my son has achieved distinctions in his ABRSM theory and practical exams. I would definitely recommend Linda as a piano teacher to anyone.

Being able to play the Piano has been a dream of mine since a young age. Turning 30 this year was my chance to reset some goals and tick off many things on my wish list, being able to play the Piano was a top one. I started lessons with Linda just under a year ago and can’t believe how much I have progressed in that time. Linda is a fantastic tutor with a wealth of experience, a lot of patience and has great confidence in her students. In under a year, I can confidently read sheet music and play pieces that I never thought would be possible. I achieved a distinction in my grade 1 music theory and I’m now working towards my grade 1 practical exam and grade 2 theory. I enjoy every lesson with Linda, each one is tailored to enable me to reach achievable goals and I am always encouraged to progress to the best of my ability. I would highly recommend Linda’s Piano Tuition, it’s easily one of the best things I have ever done! Thank you so much Linda.

As a mature student with a very basic knowledge of reading music. I was initially nervous about taking up piano again but Linda has been patient, putting me at my ease, she has provided huge encouragement at my weekly lessons and has given me the confidence and self belief in my ability to play piano. The lessons are structured to my own individual ability which I enjoy and find encouraging. Linda is an inspirational and an excellent tutor.

I have been learning piano with Linda now for a year and the progress I’ve made is amazing. As an adult beginner I knew absolutely nothing about playing the piano or reading music. A year on I can safely say I am comfortably reading music and playing pieces I never thought I’d be able to play! Linda is incredibly patient and a brilliant teacher. Highly recommend!!!

I really enjoy taking piano lessons with Linda! She is always very welcoming every lesson. In lessons we move along at my own pace, with a challenge. Linda always accommodates to the pupils time schedule, even down to how much homework during the week. Lessons are always enjoyable and I look forward to them every week. For the first lesson I was quite nervous, but as the weeks went on, we gained trust and I didn’t feel nervous anymore. Even online lessons are exactly the same as face to face lessons. Every lesson always moves me a step forward. I have been attending lessons since September however, it feels I have been playing a lifetime.

Our daughter has progressed so much in her ability because of the caring and professional way Linda teaches. Her lessons are tailored to the ability of the pupil which helps them grow in confidence. The recent pandemic hasn’t halted Linda’s passion for teaching and my daughters lesson is never a chore, she always looks forward to learning something new. I would highly recommend Linda to anyone who was looking to begin learning piano regardless of age or ability.

I started piano lessons with Linda about one year ago. As a mature student, I was a little worried at first about doing this, but Linda’s patient and friendly attitude made me feel completely at ease, and now I look forward eagerly each week to my next lesson. Linda is an excellent teacher, and her vast experience allows her the ability to tailor each lesson specifically to ensure that my progress is steady, and in an orderly fashion. In my particular case, I never thought that I could advance my piano playing capabilities as far as I have in just one year. I am more than satisfied with the tuition that I have received from Linda, and would thoroughly recommend her without hesitation to anyone that is interested in taking piano lessons.
