My name is Sarah Farr and I am a keyboard and piano teacher based in Horsham, West Sussex. My life long love of music started with learning the piano and trumpet as a child, playing at home as well socially in jazz bands and orchestras.
I trained as a primary teacher, with music as my specialism and currently teach specialist class music lessons. I have 20 years of experience of teaching piano and keyboard lessons and in my role as 'Lead Teacher for Keyboard' with West Sussex Music, I led a team of piano and keyboard teachers throughout the county.
I believe music lessons are something that everyone can benefit from. I currently teach a range of ages, from reception children to adults; as well as a range of abilities, from complete beginners to Grade 8.
Every student is an individual, with their own particular musical interests, learning styles and progression rates and I tailor my teaching to meet their individual needs. I teach a range of musical styles, including Rock and Pop, easy listening, classical and jazz.
I also work with students to achieve their individual goals. These may be:
- learning an instrument for relaxation or for the fun of developing a new skill,
- needing support with the performing aspects of their GCSE or BTEC course work
- enjoying the challenge of music grades.
