My Story
My aim is to make every lesson feel inspiring, confidence-building, and genuinely enjoyable.
I strongly believe in the developmental and emotional power of music. It strengthens focus and memory, supports emotional regulation, boosts confidence, and offers a safe space for self-expression. This shapes my teaching approach: warm, adaptable, and student-centred. Every lesson is tailored to the learner’s personality and goals, blending solid technique with creativity, musical games, songwriting, and foundational theory to nurture both musical progress and well-being.
My own musical journey began over fifteen years ago, training under an RCM concert pianist who shaped my technique, expression, and love for the instrument. During my Psychology degree — part of which I spent studying in Groningen, Netherlands — I explored how music connects people across cultures and how deeply it intertwines with emotional and cognitive development. This insight inspired my path toward formal training in music therapy, which I plan to pursue in the coming years to further integrate mental well-being into my teaching practice.
For the past four years, I have taught piano, flute, guitar, harp, and singing to students aged 3 to 70 years, working privately across Maidenhead, Windsor, Marlow, Henley, Beaconsfield, Amersham, Gerrards Cross, and in a school in the Oxfordshire countryside.

What they say about me
Hear what my students and their families have to say about their experience.
My daughter has been with Maggie now for nearly 2 years and she loves her lessons. Maggie is friendly, reliable and patient. She aims to help students achieve their potential by giving them just the right amount of stretch. She gives great advice on planning and preparing for exams. My daughter has made great progress with Maggie and sees her as a real role model. She wouldn’t want lessons with anyone else.
Maggie has taught both of my children for the last four years and has been truly inspiring. She makes lessons fun, and they always come out smiling. Maggie is kind, patient, and knows how to bring out their best — even our nearly teenage son! We couldn’t recommend her more.
Maggie has been an amazing piano teacher for our son. She manages to keep every lesson fun and positive while still helping him learn a lot and we’ve seen such a big improvement in his playing over the last two years. Our son has done very well in his piano exams as a result of Maggie’s very patient and encouraging teaching approach. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and upbeat piano teacher.
