Elena Cornes Children's Piano School.

Elana taught my daughter from the age of 10 until she was 16! I could not of picked a better teacher, she has such a way with younger children and teens that keeps them interested and eager to learn! My daughter Steph, had never played a piano until she started with Elana, by the time she was 16 she had grade 6 under her belt and could of gone on but collage and uni had to come first! I cant praise Elana highly enough! Recommend her without hesitation!! :)

Elena has been teaching our youngest daughter Annabelle for five years now and we are delighted with the progress she has made. Elena is a warm and natural teacher with Just the right balance of fun and strictness; Annabelle adores her and the lessons are always punctuated with laughter as well as serious concentration. To see all of Elena's students performing in one of her concerts or in the Eastbourne festival is to appreciate just how gifted Elena is and the confidence that she imbues in her pupils. We consider ourselves very lucky to have been recommended her by a friend and we would unhesitatingly recommend her to others

And here your journey into the fantabulous world of piano begins! I am bursting with joy for you. Here is one of the most powerful ways to exercise your mind and soothe your soul. Learning to play the piano means teaching your brain how to work in overdrive. You have to perform a lot of tasks simultaneously and, as a result, youre giving your brain a monster workout that will boost all your languages, improve cognition, dexterity, discipline, self-esteem, academic skills, logical, creative, visual, auditory, emotional, motor functions, help develop spontaneity and mechanisms to reduce stress via the medium of music rather than breaking crockery or beating yourself up, or someone else. It will add another dimension to your worldview. The mental demands of the piano are enormous, and the players brains are structured differently than other peoples - it strengthens the bridge between the right and left hemispheres and makes the connections in the frontal lobe more efficient. Jai has been very lucky to have Elena Cornes as his guide into this beautiful new world. She is known as a very talented teacher. Teaching to express a multiplicity of your innermost emotions through piano playing is one of the cornerstones of her methodology. She is a very talented teacher indeed, and Jai is in excited anticipation of every next lesson.

In my son's words "I have been learning to play the piano with Elena for about 10 years now. Elena is a fantastic teacher, always considering my requests or suggestions and shaping her lessons to the type of music I like while untiringly guiding me always to do my very best. Piano playing is not just another skill that I seek to hone, I find it leaves me mesmerised by heightened feelings when I'm playing a piece I particularly enjoy. I have learned so much about myself through piano playing. Elena is a true teacher who with her unflagging energy and patience motivates her students to perform to their full potential and allows them to flourish, all through the journey from an absolute beginner to Grade 8. As one of her long standing students I think of Elena more like family than a teacher. I would fully recommend her as her lessons are fun, enjoyable and truly inspirational". Aryaman Verma
