Approach

Genoveva's aim is to inspire students to become great pianists and

musicians by helping them choose reportoire that they can fully

connect with. She is proud to be using her own unique piano method

in which she draws upon her University learning and her experience

in the UK. She does not believe that one particular piano teaching

method is good for everyone, rather, that every student is different

and tailors her lessons to suit their abilities and interests.
