Accordion Lessons Beginner to Advanced Button & Piano Accordion
From 100.49 C$ /h
Accordion is a versatile instrument, used across both folk and classical traditions. In this course, I offer personalised accordion lessons tailored to your level, goals, and musical interests.
I specialise in both button accordion and piano accordion, and I work with students who are complete beginners through to more advanced players looking to refine technique, musicality, and repertoire.
My teaching approach is supportive and flexible. I combine practical playing with a strong focus on listening skills, musical understanding, and expression.
Lessons can include:
Basic technique and posture
Learning tunes and repertoire
Reading music and/or playing by ear
Rhythm, timing, and musical expression
Music theory and understanding what you play
Building confidence and performance skills
Each lesson is adapted to your personal goals, whether you'd like to explore pop songs, folk songs, or classical. My aim is to make learning the accordion enjoyable, structured, and inspiring, while helping you make steady progress at your own pace.

Hi, I’m a professional musician from Scotland, with a Master’s degree in classical music performance at the Royal Danish Academy of Music.
I really enjoy teaching piano because it’s such a versatile instrument and a great way to build confidence and understanding in music. My lessons are friendly, supportive, and always adapted to you as an individual — whether you’re just starting out or already have some experience.
In our lessons, we can work towards your own goals, whether that’s learning pieces you love, improving your technique, understanding music theory, or simply becoming more comfortable at the piano. I want lessons to feel enjoyable and relaxed, while still helping you make real progress.
My approach is influenced by both classical training and folk music traditions, and I often focus on listening skills and musical understanding as well as reading music. I believe that when you understand music deeply, it becomes much more enjoyable to play.
