Jill trained at the Royal Academy of Music and has since become an accomplished award-winning pianist composing and playing as an accompanist and chamber musician. She has also developed as a piano teacher helping young beginners flourish as they engage with the instrument for the first time learning technique and to read music to working with adults who want to advance at a swift pace with an intensive course.
Currently, Jill is composing a children’s tutor book and is constantly writing technique pieces for her students and many other piano pieces. She is also working on some choral pieces.

The Adult Intensive Piano Course £350
Jill put together The Adult Intensive Piano Course after meeting a lot of adults who want to explore playing the piano or revisit lessons they took when they were young but are put off by the prospect of having to invest a lot of time in lessons, something, adults are notoriously short of.
This course takes place one to one with Jill but there is the possibility for lessons to be taken via Skype.
After five one hour sessions, the technique of teaching Jill has developed results in most adults being able to play interesting pieces hand together, an exciting prospect that spurs students on to commit to regular practice and become accomplished piano players over time.
