Robert has been an incredible teacher to our son, letting him express himself while gently and expertly teaching him piano and also working on his singing technique. We couldn't recommend him highly enough.
Rob teaches piano, theory, composition and gamalan to a very high level. (degree) He is exceptionally good with beginners through to advanced, is loyal, very conscientious, reliable and creative in his teaching methods. 100% of students seem to make rapid progress and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
