About – PIANOANDGUITAR.CO.UK

Here at PIANOANDGUITAR.CO.UK we’ve been delivering fantastic music lessons for over 20 years. It doesn’t matter if you take your lesson face-to-face or on Zoom, you will always receive the quality and enjoyment from your lessons that you would expect to receive from South East London’s most highly-rated piano and guitar lessons. Established by Ben Singer in 2001, we built our practise from local teaching in Blackheath and Greenwich areas of London. Since 2015 we have grown into a small team of like-minded teachers adhering to the same highly-regarded standards that first allowed Ben to grow his own dedicated group of now long-term students. Between us we have several years experience teaching on Zoom, allowing us to make the most out of the incredible advantages of teaching music on this platform. In fact, many students who’ve had face-to-face lessons with us in the past have found taking lessons on Zoom a huge benefit and appreciate the special techniques we’ve developed from experience to get our online lessons working so well for them. We love working as a team as it means that we can offer maximum flexibility to our students. Ongoing training and feedback means we’re always feeling fresh to the game and ready to try new things. Lessons on Zoom are £35/hr for any duration you request e.g. £17.50 for half an hour. Show your interest today and receive a free online Zoom lesson to decide if it’s for you. You will also get dedicated technical support to ensure the very best ongoing experience.

Ben is very simply an absolutely fantastic music teacher. He has taught our eldest son flamenco and classical guitar,... and our youngest asperger son piano (jazz, rock, classical) and guitar, plus grade 5 theory and supported him through aspects of his GCSE music and some musicality elements of his Sound Engineering BTEC course. He's also played in their father's band, and other bands, and taught many of our friends. As a teacher of multiple musical instruments and theory, a manager of a music school carefully selecting, training, mentoring and directing his teachers, and as someone with an extraordinary aptitude for gently supporting all manner of young people with myriad learning styles, - and as a lovely person - we cannot recommend Ben highly enough. He communicates well with parents, and adopts a holistic, patient approach to each person's learning and always goes the extra mile in terms of choosing suitable pieces and approaches, suggesting instruments, equipment and books; recording students etc. He is also community minded, hosting regular concerts - with refreshments - for students where every pupil, from 5 to 50 (and beyond) is encouraged to perform for others regardless of their level; then gives donations to charity. In short, we feel incredibly lucky to have Ben in our family's musical life.read more

Ben has been teaching me piano and guitar since I transitioned to secondary school. I am now in my first year of... University. I don't remember what learning music was like before I met Ben, but I know for a fact I would not be studinying Music Psychology at Leeds had it not been for him. Despite my recent move to Leeds - Ben, being the ever so creative and knowledgeable teacher he is - created a way for us to continue our lessons online (Guitar & Piano!) & now I continue my weekly lessons as I would if I were in London anyway. As a teacher of Music, Ben has helped me with everything from understanding Music theory, performance confidence and of course technical ability. I would not be the Musician I am today without Ben and I am eternally grateful for everything he's taught me. I would highly recommend Ben as a teacher to any piano or guitar student as he is incredibly creative and adaptive with his teaching techniques and always comes prepared with a lesson plan.read more
