Coaching and Mentoring

Director, Liz Giannopoulos provides one to one coaching for delivering effective piano lessons, tailored to meet the specific needs of each individual teacher and delivered through a combination of email, telephone calls and video-calls.

​

During an initial consultation, key objectives will be identified and a mentoring plan proposed and agreed. Thereafter, regular mentoring sessions will include feedback, guidance, suggestions, recommended resources, further reading advice and much more.

​

Throughout the mentoring process, tutors are encouraged to think creatively and develop their own ideas about piano lessons, thus nurturing self-belief and confidence.

As a newbie to piano teaching back in 2014, Liz was everything I could have hoped for in a mentor. Liz’s background knowledge in teaching materials is vast, and her experience of teaching children of all ages really shone through whenever I came across any ‘speed bumps’ that inevitably showed up on my learning path.  It really is a supportive, creative and exciting place to be as a piano teacher.

As a learner, I get lots of valuable advice and tips from Liz about teaching strategies, repertoire and pedagogical methods in general. As a person, I always feel supported by Liz, who has advised me when I was uncertain and encouraged me to develop my teaching.
