Children & teenagers
Kids piano lessons in Melbourne.
One-to-one piano lessons for children from around age 5 or 6, and for teenagers, in West Melbourne. Steady progress, never rushed.
Children
A good start at the piano.
Piano lessons help children build focus, coordination, reading skills and confidence, and give them something they are proud to share. Young students do best with short, varied activities, so lessons mix posture, rhythm, note reading and simple pieces.
I work with a practice routine that parents can follow at home, so you know what to listen for and how to help. Good habits from the first lesson, such as relaxed posture and healthy hand position, avoid habits that are hard to undo later.
Teenagers
Real skill, music they love.
Teenagers combine strong classical foundations with pieces they choose themselves, including film and contemporary music. Solid technique and theory support school music, auditions and performing with confidence.
I prepare students for AMEB and ANZCA piano exams when they want that goal, with practice run-throughs before exam day. Exams are optional, and some students prefer concerts or simply playing well.
Safety and trust
Teacher and background.
I have taught for more than seven years and played classical piano for more than 13. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Classical Music and a current Working With Children Check in Victoria. I also teach students aged 5 to 15 at CS Music School in Caroline Springs, Andrew Talka Music in Point Cook and Bumble Bee Art Center in Brighton, and I take private students at my own studio.
Lessons can be in English or Persian, so children and parents can learn in whichever language feels most comfortable.
