Jacqui Chudleigh
Hello and thank you for taking a look at this course.
My name's Jacqui, and I've been teaching the piano and music for over 30 years, and still loving it!
My aim is to give access to music to everyone, no matter what their ability, lifestyle, age or aims.
I hold a Certificate of Teaching for The Royal Schools of Music, The Royal Academy of Music, London.
I have taught both privately, from my studio in Southern England, and also in many schools and colleges. I have had the pleasure of teaching students from the age of 3 to 96!
I have two published music education books, and have had articles printed in music teacher publications.
Teaching music is the best profession in the world and I love to share this with as many people as I can!

Took this course for my 10 year old son. I see that his progress has been excellent. The teacher is very good at the piano and best of all, she knows how to teach keeping the interest of the student alive. Glad that son has developed a liking for reading music as well. The way the course is structured and the way the teacher progresses with the lessons with gradual steps really deserves an applause. Thank You.

This course is awesome! I'm 44 with ZERO experience with the piano/keyboard. I love how Jacqui teaches. Nice and slow but yet consistent. This course has made it not so overwhelming to me, to learn my bucket list goal. I haven't accomplished the whole course but what I have learned is great!

I have enjoyed Jacqui's wonderful ways of teaching the important fundamentals of the piano or keyboard.
By Joy Thornton on 2/9/2017
This is a brilliant course. It is like the instructor is in the room with you. The choice of music and how the course progresses are perfect for beginners and easy to follow. You can tell Jacqui is a very experienced teacher. I think it would take many private lessons to get through all the information given, I'm amazed at the music I'm playing already, and all for less than the price of one private lesson. Thoroughly recommend, and I would happily do a follow on course with this teacher!

I was fortunate enough to purchase this course during Black Friday, but it's definitely worth paying the full price. The instructions are clear, and each step builds on something else. I've done a few piano courses over the years, and a lot of online piano tutors are basically showing off their skills, rather than actually teaching - they make things too complicated. In this course, the tutor plays slowly, gives full instructions, PDFs are provided, and everything is in bitesize. The course ranges from simple tunes like Good King Wenceslas, to trickier pieces - O-Sole-Mio. Considering piano teachers charge anything from £15 per half hour (depending where you live) - and yes that's worth money too, because you have someone physically present to correct you and provide valuable feedback, but once you purchase this course, and providing you actually use it, you'll very soon get your money's worth. Highly recommended :)

Instruction well done. Covers all the necessary information as it comes up.
By Scott Petrie on 11/21/2016
Wonderful course and such a lovely knowledgable tutor. Jaqui has the knack of putting you at your ease from the very first lesson and indeed you do learn manage to learn without "dropping the ball" on any of daily things that you need to carry out, be it cooking, cleaning, attending meetings or attending to the miriad of things all of us have to do - and moreover, learning the piano becomes fun and addictive as you realise once again the joy of owning a piano or keyboard. This course is a must for everyone from schoolchild to senior citizen!
