Testimonials

We feel incredibly lucky to have Cristian. His knowledge, teaching style and adaptability to individual students are fantastic and allow each student to first play because they love playing and to absorb technique, skill and music theory as part of playing as opposed to technique or the theory being the drivers.

Cristian has been teaching our son for 5 years and has adapted each lesson to suit what Bryn wanted to learn.

We can’t recommend him high enough. His manner, his knowledge and his teaching style are wonderful – and he is a lovely person to work with! 10 stars if possible.

Sam Kamleh-Chapman – Teddington mum

Cristian is an excellent piano teacher and musician, he comes to our house in teddington every week to teach our 11 year old daughter and he is always punctual and friendly. I am very pleased with how much my daughter has progressed under his tuition achieving grade 1 in only 4 months and already working towards grade 2. He has also inspired my daughter to create her own music and enjoy learning music she enjoys singing to. Cristian is very encouraging and has the patient of a saint! I would hightly recommend him to anyone.

Janette Douglas – Teddington mum

Cristian is a fantastic piano teacher. He is very relaxed easy going and makes learning fun! He brings the very best in my son who has been a student of his for the last 3 years. In my opinion, there is no better teacher and I would never consider having anyone else tutor my son.

Jo Emerson

Cristian is an amazing piano teacher and musician – I cannot recommend him highly enough. My 9 year old son is so enthusiastic about piano practice since Cristian has taken over his piano tuirion. I can have recently taken up piano lessons again with Cristian and find I am progressing very rapidly as I feel encouraged and motivated to practice daily. Both my son and I look forward to our weekly lessons and feel very lucky to have a piano teacher with such talent, dedication, humour and patience!

Lisa Hutson – Teddington Yoga

Cristian is an absolute amazing, he has been teaching our 7 year old Kai Purnell for the past 2 years and has worked wonders with a child whose concentration span is not very long. It is all starting to pay off as a recent visit to the Wharf Restaurant shows, as soon as we walk in, Kai spotted a grand piano, ran to it and proceeded to play it for a good half hour, with a huge grin on his face, all thanks to Cristian’s gentle and patient teaching. We simply can’t recommend Cristian highly enough.

Pauliina Purnell – Teddington mum

Have been having lessons here for about 9 months and am very impressed. The lessons have been tailored towards what I want from the start and are pitched just beyond my capabilities so I’m always improving. Would certainly recommend.

Ross Jacksosn – adult learner

Cristian is a great teacher. Very patient which is exactly what is needed when learning to play for the first time. A great experience, couldn’t have asked for better.

Elizabeth Lyne

I have been learning piano with Cristian for the last few months. He is helping me to play all of my favourite pieces. He is a really good teacher with a passion for music. He goes out of his way to ensure you get the most out of the hour and is very patient with all my mistakes. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who wants to learn piano!!

Jessica Buckle

I always look forward to Cristian’s piano lessons – he is a very talented musician and inspiring tutor. Every week he sets interesting homework to challenge comfort zones and reaffirm the work done in the lesson. We’ve convered various musical genres, and included improvisation techniques, sight-reading, covering pop songs and worked on original composition. Cristian is also full of fun and has a contagious enthusiasm for music. I’d thoroughly recommend his lessons!

Sophie Tailby

Cristian is an excellent teacher, very courteous and patient, and helpful at guiding me though my mental blocks! He’s given me the impetus that I needed to persevere and develop my playing, and I’ve enjoyed learning the pieces that he has suggested as well as the routine exercises. I look forward to continuing my lessons with him.
