Poppy Gonzalez
Poppy Gonzalez is a very experienced piano teacher. Studying from the age of five at the renowned Childs Pianoforte School, attending the Purcell School of Music, Watford (previously Harrow on the Hill) and the Royal Academy of Music, London. Poppy now runs her own private piano school in the Hanover area of Brighton and achieves outstanding results with her students.
Poppy specialises in teaching and inspiring children from as young as four years old in a fun and very easy way to understand. Starting with the Lisa Childs Piano books, beginners can enjoy making music very quickly. Colours and stickers are used for younger children who do not yet know their ABC, (this is just a teaching aid and not a colour 'method').
Having previously taught at the Childs Pianoforte School where she was trained, her own extremely successful school in Buckinghamshire for many years and more recently, a summer school in Marbella, Spain; Poppy's reputation as a dedicated, passionate teacher of quality has grown over the past 10 years in the Brighton & Hove region .
Pupils can play for fun or make progess to the Royal Schools of Music exams and school scholarships, always receiving most excellent results. Piano lessons are also available for those who have 'tried and given up years ago' - it is never too late to learn!
"Poppy Gonzalez is an exceptional and talented piano teacher, with a dynamic character and a warm personality. She encourages her students to have fun and stimulates excellence in their piano playing".
