David is such a lovely person who is very passionate about his work as a teacher. Ever since I started lessons with him, my skill and understanding of the piano has increased significantly. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who was thinking of learning piano/everything else he teaches.

David was a very good teacher for my daughter Maddalena during her first few years of piano lessons. He kept her attention and interest alive through reading, exercises and improvisation. He has a joyful and playful way of teaching music, and children love it!

David has worked with my son for the last 2 years, tutoring him for his music GCSE. David has been a tremendous teacher in a fun but structured way. He has been a huge asset in dealing with the pressure of assessed performances and compositions and has made a great difference to my son's confidence as a musician. I would recommend David to anyone and am considering learning myself!

David is an outstanding teacher. Wherever you are at for each lesson, both mentally and in terms of your skills development, he is ready to meet you with just the right tools and approach. Fun, friendly, expert, whip smart and excellent at delivering real results, would recommend without any hesitation.

Our 8 year old adores David! We have had David come to ours for 2 years and what impresses me most is the balance between improv, set pieces, theory and silliness…! David understands that learning happens best when the child is having fun and engaged. He is very patient with children who get easily distracted, but also firm when needed. The improv duets are wonderful and fill the house with beautiful music.

Leonardo has been enjoying very much the classes with David. Even though Leonardo is young, David has managed to keep him enthusiastically engaged with the classes and he is very keen to keep learning piano. David has been easy to approach and very responsive to our queries. I will recommend his classes if you want your child to start learning piano around primary school age

My daughter says David is very helpful, patient, and funny! His enthusiasm is infectious and he tailors the piano lessons to her interest and skills.

"I like piano lessons with David because he is a great teacher and I can always choose the song I want to play. I recommend him to other children"

David has been an amazing piano teacher for Esme. She really enjoys the lessons, especially improvising. Playing music she has chosen is really motivating. She has made so much progress not only in technique but also her confidence. I'm really impressed by how David is able to make that happen

David was a patient and supportive teacher. He diligently worked with my daughter, who suffers from hearing loss and neurodiversity, taking time to explain to her everything that she needs to do and why. He tailored the lessons to her needs so that she not only got the most out of each but also enjoyed them. We have since left Oxford, but my daughter still practices in her own time using the techniques taught by David. Thank you, David
