very patient if I make a mistake<\/h4>\n

Romero (aged 12) <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

I really like Jane as a teacher because she chooses some cool songs that aren\u2019t too hard like \u201cChocolate Carpark\u201d and \u201cKeep Cool\u201d. She is also very patient if I make a mistake in Theory or a piece of music.<\/p>\n

she makes the lessons fun<\/h4>\n

Laura Canton <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

This is my fourth year learning piano from Jane. I look forward to my lessons with Jane as she makes the lessons fun. Jane\u2019s always very kind, patient and helpful. Before giving me a piece, she makes sure that it is one that I would like to learn.<\/p>\n

Jane is wonderful at adapting her lessons to each pupil\u2019s progress<\/h4>\n

Brook Family <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Jane is a very friendly, helpful teacher. She is patient with her students, and does everything she can to help them learn to play the piano. She has an entire bookcase of pieces you can choose to play, and she has clearly taken the time to become a master of the piano.<\/p>\n

Jonathan Brook<\/p>\n

As well as being a fine piano teacher equipped with marvellous resources, Jane is wonderful at adapting her lessons to each pupil\u2019s progress. Jane has taken our boys from novice status to passing many grading exams, and all with a smile and a genuine interest in each pupil. Thanks Jane!<\/p>\n

Greg & Lesley Brook<\/p>\n

Jane is fostering a life-long love of music<\/h4>\n

Hesson Family <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

I enjoy Jane as my piano teacher as she is nice, she is funny and she stays calm when I am finding it hard to concentrate! She has lots of different songs to play. I also like the music games we play away from the piano.<\/p>\n

Holly Hesson<\/p>\n

Jane has taught my daughter Holly since she was seven. She has allowed Holly to develop her skills at her own pace and tailored her style to fit Holly\u2019s nature. As a person who went through all the Grades at school, I have found it easy to step back and not interfere with Holly\u2019s learning as I am very confident with Jane as her teacher. Holly is growing in confidence too and Jane is fostering a life-long love of music for her.<\/p>\n

Kate Hesson<\/p>\n

she brings the best out of her students<\/h4>\n

Benjamin (aged 16) <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

I started piano lessons with Jane when I was eight years old. She is a very organised and professional teacher and makes learning interesting and enjoyable. With difficult pieces Jane is able to explain concepts in a way that I can relate to, and has a lot of patience and is always positive and encouraging. Jane is a very good piano teacher and she brings the best out of her students like she has with me.<\/p>\n

she is calm, encouraging and thoroughly professional<\/h4>\n

Amberly, Emma and Christine Orr <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

We have had the pleasure of having Jane as our piano teacher over the past 10 years both privately and at Saturday Morning Music Classes. Jane is a natural teacher \u2013 her passion for what she does is evident. She can easily adjust to the individual needs of her pupils. My girls have learned so much from Jane \u2013 she is calm, encouraging and thoroughly professional. I would definitely recommend Jane to anyone who is considering learning the piano.<\/p>\n

a caring, patient and disciplined teacher<\/h4>\n

Hoult Family <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Over the past three years my daughter, Annika, had been learning piano with various music teachers. She had, however, begun to lose interest and was close to giving up. Last year she moved to Jane Trotter. Since being with Jane, Annika has made excellent progress. She now thoroughly enjoys and looks forward to her weekly lesson and is self-motivated to practice at home.<\/p>\n

Jane has broadened Annika\u2019s appreciation of music by introducing her to a wide range of composers and styles. In my opinion Jane has a very well rounded approach in her teaching which includes a mixture of theory and practice.<\/p>\n

Jane is a caring, patient and disciplined teacher. She is incredibly approachable which has helped put Annika at ease. Jane is aware of other commitments in Annika\u2019s busy life and keeps her motivated and on track without overtaxing her. We feel very fortunate to have found Jane and would highly recommend her as a piano teacher.<\/p>\n

Philippa Hoult<\/p>\n

I have been learning piano from Jane for the past year. Jane is an amazing piano teacher. Her understanding and patience help me to learn. She is kind, friendly and very approachable. Jane selects music that she knows I will enjoy learning. This year I have been able to expand my repertoire of tunes. One of my favourite things about Jane is that she encourages me to do my utmost best with every piece of music that she gives to me.<\/p>\n

Annika Marriner<\/p>\n

Every session is relaxing and fun.<\/h4>\n

Amelia (aged 13) <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Jane has been my piano teacher for the last seven years. Every session is relaxing and fun. Jane has taught me many skills and techniques, and has given me confidence to play the piano in public. She takes the time to find interesting pieces of music for me to play, and then patiently goes through the pieces with me. Through her teaching I have achieved \u2018Distinction\u2019 passes in both my music practical and theory ABRSM exams. I am very lucky to have Jane as my piano teacher.<\/p>\n

Lessons are never boring and I love Piano<\/h4>\n

James Hurley <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

I love going to piano lessons with Jane as my teacher. Jane is kind and lets me pick the pieces of music I play. She a very good teacher and and I have learnt so much from her and and she makes the lessons fun. I have been going for 5 years and the lessons are never boring and I love Piano. Thanks Jane<\/p>\n

Jane is really nice and a great teacher<\/h4>\n

Hall Family <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

I like learning with Jane because she teaches me new notes and she\u2019s funny sometimes. I really like the flashcard game.<\/p>\n

Matthew Hall<\/p>\n

Jane is really nice and a great teacher. She is patient and calm even when I make a mistake. Sitting exams is really stressful but Jane helps us stay focused.<\/p>\n

Olivia Hall<\/p>\n

I like Jane because she doesn\u2019t get grumpy if I make mistakes. She also chooses some cool songs for me to learn like the Star Wars theme.<\/p>\n

Jacob Hall<\/p>\n

Jane is awesome and fun and super!<\/h4>\n

Mulder Family <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Jane creates a relaxed learning environment. I find she is great at picking the areas where I can improve technically and providing useful tools to do so. Jane chooses great pieces that are enjoyable to play and really help extend my capabilities. She is also happy to work on various pieces I am practising at any given time and provides great insight even when I spring them on her without any notice. Jane also teaches my two children, Freddy and Lucy. They both feel very relaxed with her and have a great time.<\/p>\n

Tom Mulder<\/p>\n

She\u2019s funny and smiley and we love our lessons. Jane is awesome and fun and super!<\/p>\n

Lucy (aged 8)<\/p>\n

I like that she gives us stickers and lollies at the end of the lesson and I like doing the flash cards with her.<\/p>\n

Freddy (aged 5)<\/p>\n
