About Cheryl

I am a Part-Time Lecturer at the University of Southampton; my primary residence is Cardiff, where I offer piano lessons from my home on a Kawai K300 piano. I am open to alternative arrangements, including commuting for lessons -- this is something that can be discussed at a later stage!

I graduated from Cornell University (New York) with a Doctorate in Piano Performance and Music Theory. Before this, I lived in Britain for seven years, where I completed my A Levels at the specialist music school Wells Cathedral School, earned a First Class Honours degree in Music from Oxford University, and obtained a Master’s in Piano Performance with Distinction from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama.

Throughout my academic journey, I have won several prizes: the John James Blackmore Prize at Cornell; the Gilbert Prize for Piano Performance and John Roberts Memorial Award at RWCMD; and the Organ Scholarship, Academic Scholarship, and Joan Conway Scholarship in Performance Studies at Oxford.

I began learning the piano at age 4, progressing through the ABRSM Practical and Theory graded examinations. I was invited to perform in ABRSM High Scorers' concerts on both the piano and violin, and I hold an LRSM in Piano Performance. My performance experience spans solo and concerto performances, accompaniment, chamber music, and orchestral playing, with experience and prizes in international competitions and festivals.

Teaching overview:
My tutoring approach is flexible and student-centered. In collaboration with you, we tailor lesson plans to align with your unique strengths, goals, and learning styles. Together, we will work towards developing a strong technical foundation while also nurturing musical expression and creativity. Whether preparing for exams, performances, or simply learning for enjoyment, I work closely with my students to help them achieve their full potential, with the goal of fostering a lifelong love of music.

I believe in a holistic approach to music education. We will hone not just performance skills but also integrate music theory and aural skills to cultivate a deep understanding of the music you play. The goal is to equip you with the ability to be empowered through your music-making skills and to develop a unique musical voice of your own.
