It’s been a real pleasure to learn with Robin! His classes are always exciting, simple to follow, informative, and most importantly, entertaining! He has aided me in further realising the beauty of the piano through the fascinating genre of jazz music. I look forward to improvising new melodies and tunes every day thanks to Robin’s patient and skilled instruction. A fantastic piano teacher, 10/10! – Nathan, Hong Kong
I have to say that I knew you were brilliant at what you do but listening to your work …. wow! Gabriel gets so much from you and your teaching. He loves his lessons.

He self-released 3 rock pop piano albums and teaches pop piano from beginner piano lessons through to advanced piano lessons and diplomas.

He holds a Fellowship diploma in composition.
Learn Pop Piano – The Melody
We’ll start off by learning something you’ve already internalised. Perhaps your favourite chart topper that you’ve already heard over a million times over.
We attack the pop piano melody first and once you have that down, we’ll add chords for a fuller sound.
When you learn a rock pop song that you love, practising doesn’t seem like a chore any more. You start enjoying it so much that you fully internalise it.
Practice Pop Piano Chords & Bass
Next in your pop piano course, we’ll add a bass which will eventually lead to chords, playing around with inversions and styles. We can then create personalised variations, pop piano covers, on your pop rock song so that you make it your own.
We can then explore which scales interlock with rock pop piano chords.
Improvise Pop Piano Covers
Music doesn’t flow through the pages of a book. It doesn’t even flow through your piano. It flows through you. When you freeze, so does the music.
But with your pop rock piano song internalised and practised well, you’ll stop freezing and you will freely improvise.
PLAY YOUR HEART OUT
through your rock pop piano.
ROCK POP PIANO REVIEW:
Ed – Classical Piano & Pop Piano Player
I learnt classical piano for associated board exams for a long time and hadn’t really done anything else. I kind of wanted to branch out a bit and, not having any experience in improvising or jazz rhythms didn’t matter. I said I wanted to do some improvisation so that’s what we do. He shows me how with little exercises that teach without you knowing your working or practising until you have to use that particular skill and you realise you can just do it. I feel like he makes it easy to learn because you keep doing new things, he shows you how in a way that’s unique to both him and you because if that’s how you learn best then that’s how you’re going to learn. There’s no ‘This is how you do it, now repeat a million times’ it just flows naturally and you learn how you want to.
I still keep up the classical piano and I bet I could ask to throw in other styles and genres, for want of a better term, and we’d just roll with it. I think that keeping up with the classical aspect helps improve my technique so that I don’t have to think about it, I just do it.
