Perfect! Thank you for always making it as easy as possible for me. Superb tutor, I am happy to learn from you.

Perfect! Vanessa is the best piano teacher I have ever had ️. She is patient with you. She teaches a great balance of practical and theory. I told her my love for pop music and she takes time to teach and incorporate modern music in our training. Piano lessons are such a joy!

Perfect! Vanessa’s methodology has the perfect balance of theory & practicality, while making it easy to stay engaged and have fun. Vanessa is very patient and understanding which will help keep your mind at ease and help you enjoy your lessons!
- Mikho is such a fast learner, and she constantly has a beautiful smile while playing that speaks volumes of her achievement thus far. I am so lucky so have such a receptive learner in Mikho!Vanessa's response :
Perfect! Vanessa has been so incredibly wonderful to work with for piano and voice lessons. She is very soft and welcoming for beginners but will also make sure you really get something to take away for each of your lessons. I cannot recommend Vanessa enough!!
- McKenzie has such a beautiful, unique presence and her voice is exactly the same. I am looking forward to helping you achieve your singing goals and dreams xVanessa's response :
Perfect! Vanessa is a teacher well versed in the music language as well as the human language. Balanced in her ability to meet you where you are artistically and as a person whilst positively pushing you forward. Genuinely looking forward to learning from her.
- Buhle is quite a proficient pianist and very interested in upskilling his abilities in both classical, jazz practically but also theoretically. I enjoy teaching him and I look forward to seeing the growth that is bound to happen!Vanessa's response :
Perfect! Vanessa is really caring and kind. She is talented and encourages me to develop the different facets that make up playing piano. I would recommend her to anyone.
- Kaya is super talented and hard-working. It has been such a pleasure getting to know her and working with her. Looking forward to many more lessons, Kaya!Vanessa's response :
Perfect! I feel incredibly fortunate to have come across Vanessa in my search for a piano teacher. She is attentive, sensitive + gentle, and organised. She offers many different avenues for your learning, including the opportunity to practise performing in a small safe group setting. She also emphasises the fun of learning piano, which is so important for students like me who instinctively want to treat it like a conquest (which brings a whole lot of anxiety and tension with it). I honestly could say much more still, but hopefully it's clear by now that Vanessa really is a gem of a teacher!
- Tami has a strong love for music and has always wanted to begin a journey of playing piano. I am quite privileged to be able to guide her along on this journey. Looking forward to it Tami!Vanessa's response :
Perfect! Vanessa is a great tutor, not only instruct me how to play, but also explains music theories and stories with patience.

Vanessa made a huge impact in my life and instilled in me and my sister a lasting love for and understanding of music that has been a tremendous help in my music career. She is an excellent teacher.
Vanessa is passionate and professional, and is able to adapt her teaching style to suit the needs of her students. With her guidance and expertise, her students have flourished and developed a relationship with music that allows them to express themselves and develop a positive outlet to hone and work on their self-development through their craft.
I had the pleasure of studying piano with Vanessa and I can say without a doubt that she is an excellent and caring teacher.
She has a wealth of musical knowledge and she is able to effectively communicate it to her students. She takes the time to understand each student's individual needs and tailor the lessons accordingly, ensuring that our goals are met, progress is made and that I am enjoying the learning process.
Not only is she a talented musician, but she is also patient, kind, and encouraging. She creates a supportive environment in which I as the student feel comfortable to make mistakes and grow as a musician.
She has a remarkable ability to guide her students on a musical journey, bringing out the best in each and every one of us.
I would highly recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a piano teacher who truly cares about her students and their musical development and inspires her students to reach their full potential.
I have worked with Vanessa for a number of years and can confidently recommend her as a piano teacher. She is a qualified and experienced teacher who takes her work seriously and is student-oriented.
Vanessa is an excellent musician, teacher, intellect and overall person. I strongly recommend Vanessa as a tutor.
I would feel at ease leaving my child in the capable teaching hands of Vanessa - and so should you. Her compassionate and patient character shines through in the way she works with her students.
