Testimonials
“Her progression impresses me a lot and I am happy to see that she really enjoys the lessons and keeps playing the piano by herself at home. It seems to relax her and a way to cope with the stressful school days. Many thanks for this!” — Melanie, mother of current 16-year old student
Garreth is a fantastic piano teacher. As an adult who had not played piano for over a decade, I can just imagine how tricky it must have been to try and figure out how to go about teaching me. Nonetheless, Garreth immediately found a way to make our lessons both fun and extremely effective, while also customizing our sessions to suit my exact needs. Could not recommend him enough! — Brahm, former student
"I believe you are enhancing my girls' life journey and am so grateful we met you and have you!"
Alma, mother of two current students.
"Garreth is a fantastic piano teacher. He is adored by my children who take piano lessons from him each week. My twin girls get very excited when Garreth arrives to teach and he is a joy to have in our home. Garreth makes learning fun at the same time educational and he is very organized and has well thought out lesson plans. Garreth has also started to teach the girls some composition skills during their lesson time and this makes me very happy. Being a professional singer and voice teacher myself, I worked very hard to find the right music teacher to give my children a strong start to their musical education. Picking the right teacher was of great importance to me and I can say that I am truly pleased with our choice of Garreth as their teacher." - Brenda Christensen, Canadian soprano and singing teacher, mother of two students.
"Garreth Brooke is an incredibly talented pianist and a gifted teacher who knows how to make piano lessons both instructive and fun. He’s great with kids and takes the time to find each child’s strengths and particular interests, which he’ll then incorporate into his lesson plans. Garreth’s dedication to teaching goes well beyond the actual lessons and their preparation; he’s also a great communicator who kept us in the loop with weekly progress reports, and he’s meticulous to the nth degree when it comes to working out schedules. Our daughter loved taking lessons with Garreth, and we were all quite sad to say goodbye to him when we left Frankfurt." - parent of a former student
