About Vinnie
Hello Future Student! I’m Vinnie, a professional musician, educator, and all-around creative enthusiast who lives and breathes music, creativity, and education. With over 20 years of teaching experience, I’ve had the privilege of working with students from all walks of life and ages, helping them connect with music in meaningful ways. As an artist (STERGIN), I was honoured with the prestigious ‘Do It Differently Award’ from Help Musicians UK, and my projects have received support from Arts Council England. My commissions include creating a piece for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and other exciting multimedia projects. BBC6 Music's Dave Gilyeat says "One of the most inventive musicians". I perform with my band, Shiny Brain Crayons, and have been lead creative at InHouse Records, a social enterprise empowering young offenders through music. I hold a BA in Music Education (Mozarteum Salzburg) and an MA in Music Composition (Trinity College of Music, London).

What makes my lessons unique? Most of my current piano students are beginner children and I really enjoy opening up the world of music for young learners. It's very rewarding and I learn so much every week by doing that, for that I'm grateful. I’ve also developed the Mindful Teaching Method, a one-of-a-kind approach that combines meditation with music lessons (I teach this way mainly with my adult/young adult students not so much with children). This method helps you: - Build confidence and overcome creative blocks. - Foster a deeper connection with yourself, your instrument and music. - Learn in a calm, fun, and supportive environment. We start our session with a short meditation and then explore music! What can we work on (very often we end up doing all!)? Piano Playing (classical, rock, pop) Songwriting Music Production Singing Whether you’re a beginner or looking to refine your craft, my lessons are tailored to your goals and learning style. Together, we’ll celebrate your progress and bring out your unique musical voice. Let’s create something amazing together! Reach out to book a lesson or ask any questions—I can’t wait to meet you and start this musical journey. Best, Vinnie

My daughter has been learning piano with Vinnie for a number of years now and is getting along great. She is steadily improving and enjoys going to her lessons every week. Vinnie is fun, approachable, knowledgeable and encouraging. He adapts lessons and learning to suit the individual, which is particularly apparent during the wonderful student showcases he organises. These are a lovely way for his students to experience performing to others but in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.
We would highly recommend Vinnie as a music teacher!My 8-year-old son loves his piano lessons with Vinnie! They have an absolute blast and Vinnie makes it so fun he's happy to practice between lessons too, and is making great progress. Highly recommended!
Vinnie creates fun music lessons with a relaxed vibe, tailored to your interest and level. He listens to his students and encourages their interests while also encouraging them to practice - and helps them to succeed. Five star piano tutor.
Amazing piano lessons with Vinnie! I've already seen noticeable improvements in my skill level with only a few lessons!
I love the initial mindfulness exercise to help get yourself in the mood for a relaxing session
Would highly recommend for people looking to improve their skills or just try something new out!I have recently started taking guitar and mindfulness lessons with Vinnie and I would highly recommend to anyone.. I really enjoy the mindfulness as it helps to relax and get in the zone for the lesson and adds skills for everyday life! For the guitar part Vinnie is an excellent and very patient teacher who helping me to understand the instrument a lot better and become more comfortable and confident playing..
I've been having lessons with Vinnie for a few years now, having received a batch from my wife for a birthday.
Not only is Vinnie a wonderful musician, he's a superb teacher. He is patient yet meticulous and has plenty of strategies to put you at ease and get the best out of your playing,
On top of learning huge amounts from him, we also laugh a lot. Lessons are never boring and I never feel any pressure.
I would recommend Vinnie - and have done - without hesitation.Guitar lessons with Vinnie are superb! He sets the music at my level and directs the sessions centred on what I want to get out of them. He is always happy to answer questions along the way and paces the lessons with dynamic exercises and interesting approaches. Vinnie is an inspiring and friendly teacher with high level playing skills that make you want to do better each time.
