Piano Lesson FAQs
Where are your piano lessons based?
I teach my piano lessons from a dedicated music school in the heart of Southampton. The teaching room is only minutes from the city centre, so it’s convenient to get to if you want to have a lesson before or after work or school. My room comes with a piano, so you don’t need to bring any extra equipment. Also, it’s a warm and fun space where we can both share our love of music and explore the piano.
What areas do you cover?
My piano lessons are ideal for people of all ages living in Southampton, Eastleigh, Fareham, Portsmouth and throughout Hampshire. However, I can also give you lessons if you live slightly further afield. As part of my work at the University of Chichester, I also provide lessons around there. So, if you live in Chichester or West Sussex, contact me and mention this, and we can discuss having sessions in that area.
How many lessons do I need to purchase?
I believe that everyone should be able to learn the piano, no matter how they want to. As a result, you don’t have to buy lessons in bulk, and you can purchase them one-at-a-time if you wish. That also means you can change the amount of time per lesson, depending on your schedule, as well as the days we do them. I keep my timetable as flexible as possible, and we can organise sessions on evenings and weekends to suit your needs.
How experienced are you?
I have years of experience studying piano and violin classically and playing around the world. I’ve also performed at St. Paul’s Cathedral for Prince Charles and other distinguished guests. However, I’m most proud of the experiences I have connecting with new learners, young and old, who want to discover music. I hope that my piano lessons can provide people in Southampton with the knowledge and joy that the piano has brought me.
What style of piano do you teach?
My piano lessons don’t follow a prescribed pattern – instead, I devise a bespoke plan that works around what you love. If you want to learn classical pieces and music theory, I have the knowledge and expertise to help you reach a high technical level. However, if you’d like to learn pop or rock songs instead, I’m more than happy to explore this too. Our lessons are specific to you so that you can discover the piano uniquely.
Can you teach piano for beginners?
Absolutely! No matter how much experience you have, I’ll tailor my lessons around your level. That means you can pick up this beautiful instrument with me even if you’ve never tried before. However, if you’re a more experienced player, I hope that I can show you new techniques that’ll transform your style. Also, if you’re preparing for an exam or a recital, we can shape our lessons around them to get you ready.
Benefits of My Piano Tuition
1-2-1 Private Tuition
My piano lessons are private, so it’ll be just us and the piano. That means you’ll get a session with no distractions and ample time for you to learn and explore this beautiful instrument. While you play, I’ll also provide tips and feedback as we go. That means there’s no need to fear playing poorly, as we can always find ways to improve your technique.
Technical Knowledge
I’m able to teach piano lessons in Southampton to students of all skill levels. Because of this, you can learn concepts and techniques that are as complicated as you’d like them to be. If you’re a beginner, I can show you the fundamental techniques. However, for more experienced players, I can teach music theory and help with exams and recitals.
Based in The Heart of Southampton
My dedicated music school is only a few minutes away from the centre of Southampton. That means it’s a simple drive if you live around the city, and this space is also close to major bus routes. The location of my music school makes it possible for you to balance your life with lessons to, as you can take them before or after work or school as it suits you.
Flexible Lesson Times
Life can be complicated – so my lessons aren’t. Instead of sitting down with you and holding you to a fixed time every week, I keep my timetable open. As a result, you don’t have to worry about missing a session should something come up that you can’t avoid. We can reschedule to evenings and weekends, and even do shorter sessions if you need them.

Whether you’re young or young at heart, I can help you discover the piano at your own pace. My lessons are available to people of all ages, including children. My music rooms are an ideal space for education and a positive environment where everybody can enjoy and explore the piano. You’re never too old to learn some new tricks.
Live Tips & Feedback
When you play, I’ll be there to support and help you. During our sessions, I can provide you with tips and feedback so you can improve your technique. Whether you’re learning the basics or something complex, we can go over it as many times as you need to until you feel comfortable with it. That way, we can find your inner musician together.
Customer Reviews
“Our daughter has been having lessons for about two months and we can’t recommend Oxana highly enough. She is an excellent musician and an excellent teacher. Our daughter suffers from severe anxiety, but from the first lesson Oxana put her at ease and has motivated her to play, practice and improve – with very obvious effects on both her playing and her general confidence. On a technical level, Oxana is extremely rigorous and places great emphasis on producing a strong, clear sound, and precise timing – nothing escapes her, she picks up on the smallest details and corrects the students in a sensitive but effective way. Very highly recommended!”
