Hello! I’m a professional music educator, pianist, choir director, and composer with a Bachelor’s degree in Music from the University of Lagos, Nigeria.
I have experience teaching students of different ages and skill levels in piano, music theory, musicianship, ear training, sight-reading, harmony, and ensemble performance. My teaching approach focuses on making lessons practical, engaging, and tailored to each student’s goals, whether they are complete beginners, preparing for examinations, or looking to improve their performance skills.
Throughout my career, I have taught in schools, directed choirs, prepared students for performances, and helped learners develop confidence, creativity, and strong musical foundations. I believe every student can succeed with the right guidance, encouragement, and structured learning.
Beyond teaching, I have served as President of the NYSC National Band, where I led rehearsals, coordinated musicians, and developed leadership and teamwork skills while promoting musical excellence.
My areas of expertise include:
* Piano
* Music Theory
* Ear Training

* ABRSM and graded music examination preparation
Whether your goal is to learn your first song, pass a music examination, develop improvisation skills, or become a confident performer, I am committed to helping you achieve measurable progress in a supportive and enjoyable learning environment.
