“I have been learning with Koichi for over 4 years and I really enjoy our lessons, he always makes the effort to adapt his teaching to my needs and learning style.  As an adult beginner I find Koichi extremely patient, his teaching is 100% pupil centred, I always feel encouraged, even when I haven’t practiced much between lessons!  Koichi is also reliable and punctual and has a great sense of humour.”

“Koichi has worked with both my kids for over three years. The youngest was showing difficulties in learning the basics and Koichi found a creative and ludic way to teach him and raise his practice to an acceptable level. Our older kid was showing a great talent and Koichi was able to guide him in his exploration of music, helping him develop his taste and musical range. Koichi taught my son through the ABRSM grade 5, which he passed with ease. Koichi’s teaching method is both gentle and rich; he helps the kids progress fast and well without adding unnecessary stress or pressure on them. He is a great teacher and I miss having him around for his weekly classes.“

“The piano lessons with Koichi are adapted to my pace and I see my progress after each lesson. As I am rather a slow learner I am happy to find such a patient teacher. He gives me self-confidence and encourages me to go further. Playing piano is so much fun and gives me a lot of pleasure.”

“I consider myself a piano student of an advanced intermediate level and I’ve been studying with Koichi for the last couple of years. I am absolutely amazed by his knowledge of piano playing and he knows perfectly how to explain that to me. My level has gone up very quickly since I came to study with him. Highly recommended!”

“Koichi’s lessons are very inspiring and he always makes me laugh and relaxed during the lessons. I am sad that I have to go back to my country and stop having lessons with him… it will be difficult to find a piano teacher like him I’m sure.”

“Koichi is such an amazing pianist as well as a teacher I am in awe of him when he plays me some passages on a piano to show me how it should be done. He makes the piano sound so beautiful sometimes I can’t believe it’s my own piano. Hopefully one day I could play as beautifully as him.”
