What People Say

Hear from students, parents, and choir members

Jordan is an incredibly patient and encouraging teacher. I started piano as a complete beginner at 45, and within six months I was playing pieces I never thought possible. His approach makes every lesson something to look forward to.
Sarah Thompson

Piano Student (Adult Learner)

Our daughter Ellie has come on leaps and bounds since starting lessons with Jordan. She passed her Grade 2 with distinction and genuinely loves practising. We could not recommend him more highly.
David & Claire Roberts

Parents of Piano Student (Age 9)

Jordan brought a fresh energy and professionalism to our choir that has been transformative. Attendance has increased, the repertoire is exciting, and the standard of singing has risen enormously under his direction.
Rev. Michael Hughes

Choir Committee Member

I had never had a singing lesson before coming to Jordan, and I was terrified! He immediately put me at ease and helped me find my voice. Now I perform confidently at open mic nights and even sang at my sisters wedding.
Emma Griffiths

Singing Student

Jordan has been my piano teacher for four years and has guided me through every grade with flying colours. His knowledge of music theory is brilliant and he makes even the most technical pieces feel achievable.
James Patterson

Piano Student (Grade 7)

Rehearsals with Jordan are always well-prepared and enjoyable. He has a real gift for bringing the best out of singers at every level. The learning tracks he produces are invaluable for home practice.
