If you’re looking for piano lessons in Gilwern, you’re in exactly the right place.

For many years, I’ve had the privilege of teaching piano at Gilwern Primary School in Monmouthshire, helping children from Year 1 through to Year 6 discover the joy of music. Whether a child is taking their very first steps at the piano or is already working towards ABRSM graded piano exams, every lesson is individually tailored to help them develop confidence, musicality and a genuine love of playing.

Watching my students grow—not just as musicians but as confident young people—is one of the greatest privileges of my job.



Piano Lessons During the School Day

Having piano lessons at Gilwern Primary School makes learning music simple and convenient for busy families.

Lessons take place during the school day in the school’s music room, meaning there is no need for parents to travel to after-school lessons. I collect each child from their classroom and return them afterwards, working closely with school staff to ensure lessons fit around the school day as smoothly as possible.

Lesson times rotate each week so that children don’t repeatedly miss the same lesson, activity or class, giving everyone the opportunity to enjoy all aspects of school life alongside their music tuition.

Children can choose either:

  • 20-minute individual piano lessons

  • 30-minute individual piano lessons

Every lesson is taught in a relaxed, encouraging and friendly environment where children feel comfortable learning at their own pace.



Piano Lessons Designed Around Every Child

No two children learn in exactly the same way, which is why every lesson is carefully personalised.

Some pupils simply want to learn piano for fun and enjoy playing their favourite songs.

Others enjoy setting goals through ABRSM graded exams, performances or school concerts.

Whatever their ambitions, lessons can include:

  • Classical piano

  • Pop music

  • Film and television music

  • Reading traditional music notation

  • Playing from lead sheets and chords

  • Improvisation and creativity

  • Ensemble and collaborative performances with other pupils

The aim is always the same—to help children become confident, independent musicians while making every lesson enjoyable.



Growing With My Students

One of the most rewarding parts of teaching at Gilwern Primary School is seeing children continue their musical journey for many years.

Many pupils begin lessons as complete beginners in primary school before continuing with me as they move on to secondary education.

Students often progress to lessons either:

  • At my purpose-built piano teaching studio at Clydach Village Hall, near Abergavenny.

  • At Crickhowell High School, where I continue teaching students from Year 7 right through to Sixth Form.

Building these long-term relationships means I have the privilege of watching children grow from nervous beginners into confident young musicians.



Becoming Part of a Musical Community

Learning piano is about far more than just weekly lessons.

Students at Gilwern Primary School are warmly invited to become part of the wider musical community through Hannah’s Piano Tuition.

Many choose to perform regularly in:

  • School assemblies

  • School showcases

  • Studio concerts

  • Group performances with other students

Families are also welcome to join in with a variety of optional events throughout the year, including:

  • Studio Hub musicianship classes

  • Creative workshops

  • Our annual Summer Family Fun Day

  • Our much-loved Christmas Celebration

This year’s Christmas Celebration will take place on Sunday 6th December 2026 at Clydach Village Hall, bringing together students of all ages for a wonderful day of music, performances and festive fun.

These events give children valuable performance experience while helping them make friends with other young musicians from across Monmouthshire, Powys and Blaenau Gwent.

Parents often tell me they appreciate that lessons are:

  • Friendly and encouraging

  • Individually tailored

  • Relaxed and enjoyable

  • Suitable for complete beginners and advanced pupils alike

  • Focused on building confidence as well as musical ability

  • Flexible enough to support each child’s interests and goals

Whether a child dreams of performing on stage, taking graded exams or simply enjoying music as a lifelong hobby, every achievement is celebrated.
