Taylan Oliver

My teaching approach is very hands-on, and I always aim to make lessons fun, engaging, and tailored to each student. With over 10 years of private tutoring experience, I cater to all musical styles and am always happy to teach new songs upon request.

The following lesson plans serve as a guide to the types of topics and methods I use when teaching both guitar and piano.

Lessons can be face to face up to a 10 mile radius from Epping.

I do also offer an online lesson option either using Zoom, Google video messaging or WhatsApp video.
