Keyboard Lessons - Any Age, Any Ability

Wendy understands that many beginners will have keyboards because they are much cheaper than full-size electric pianos, or acoustic pianos. She does however prefer to teach on the "real deal" so students learn proper finger technique right from the start.

Wendy graduated from the Queensland Conservatorium of Music in 1990, with a “Bachelor of Arts in Music” degree, majoring in Piano, with secondary studies in Flute and Voice. After graduation, Wendy returned to her home on the Sunshine Coast where she has been teaching ever since.

Wendy started teaching Piano, Flute and Theory in 1991, and
over the past 32 years, Wendy's students have consistently achieved very high results, with regular High Distinction (A+), Honours(A), and Credit (B+ & B) in AMEB exams. Wendy has been teaching Piano and Flute through to Advanced levels, and Music Theory through to Intermediate (Grade 5) level, throughout her career. Around 10 years ago, she also started teaching beginner level Clarinet and Saxophone as well, and in recent years took a tenor sax student through to Gr 8 level with Honours (A).
As an accomplished pianist herself, Wendy also enjoys accompanying her woodwind students (flute, clarinet, saxophone) for exams, concerts and eisteddfods.

Despite achieving great success in her student’s exams, Wendy has many students who just learn for their own enjoyment, and she enjoys teaching the vast range of personalities and interest levels that come her way - of all ages, abilities and past experiences. Wendy teaches everything from Classical to Contemporary; any age, any ability; for exams or “just for fun” ...

Wendy is passionate about music, and believes that no matter what your age or ability, it is NEVER too late to learn - if you WANT to learn, you CAN!! Whether you want the discipline of working towards an exam, or whether you just want to learn "for fun", music can be a tremendous benefit to your life in many ways. Wendy teaches individuals based on their own interest level and ability - come as you are and see where she can take you with it!
