About me

Are you interested in private piano lessons which are personalised and designed for your needs? I love to inspire my pupils and share my knowledge. I am a Doctor of Music and a Professor at London Performing Academy of Music. I am an award winning and chart topping world renowned Composer. I am also a performing artist, a Verified Spotify Artist, a Concert Pianist and a Private Piano Teacher. My teaching method and my students were featured in a special BBC program called ‘Making the Grade’ about the successful passing of ABRSM exams under my guidance. However my teaching philosophy extends far beyond the exam repertoire, focusing on cultivating a deep love for music. I like using a variety of creative and engaging teaching methods tailored to individual learning styles, where students feel inspired to explore their musical potential and ensuring that each student receives a personalised and enriching educational experience. Throughout my career I have successfully prepared students for recitals, competitions and exams, with many achieving top honours and awards. I am particularly proud of working with children with special needs and achieving success which underscores my commitment to student’s success and excellence in music education. In addition to my technical skills, I am known for my patience, creativity and ability to connect with students on a personal level. I strongly believe that teaching is meant to be a passion and not simply something someone does when a performance career doesn’t pan out as planned. Quite the contrary, one has to be very successful in order to share experience, knowledge etc. with others through teaching. The teacher has to be a source of inspiration. I continue to be creative in my teaching as well. Like with my compositions my style is ‘tailored’ to fit specific individual students.

Olga is a wonderful tutor, super professional, dedicated and interesting person. She is wonderful with pupils of all ages, very personal and ensuring the students are progressing at all times while having a great time!

After several uninspiring teachers finding Olga was a breath of fresh air. A former pupil of legendary piano teacher Anna Kantor [who taught Evgeny Kissin.] her engaging and very effective teaching style made learning the piano fun. My children made rapid progress and really enjoyed their lessons. Olga also teaches composition, theory and music history to all levels. I would highly recommend this gifted and inspiring teacher. ‘

Olga taught each of my four children. Her wealth of experience enabled Olga to tailor the lessons to suit each child (including one on the spectrum). Lessons were interesting, fun and each child developed a deep love and appreciation of music. Olga is an excellent teacher.
