Piano lessons

As a teacher, I understand every student is unique and has different aspirations. For this reason, every lesson is tailored to the student’s needs making sure it helps them to work effectively towards improving the skills they want to develop and achieve the best results.

In my lessons, I cover a variety of essential areas when it comes to piano playing, such as reading music, mastering piano technique, and developing musicality. I also prepare students for exam boards such as ABRSM and Trinity up to grade 8. Since I believe that stimulating creativity is essential for a healthier and joyful life, I encourage my students to take their first steps in improvisation and composition, allowing them to feel free to create something uniquely theirs.

My kids have made really fast progress and are really enjoying playing piano thanks to Camila. She has really enthused them and seems to be great at making the little ones feel at ease.

Piano lessons for children

In my lessons, we learn how to read music, play piano pieces and nursery rhymes, improve aural skills, and have fun with musical games.

For preschoolers, I use My First Piano Book which was specially made to make learning enjoyable for this age.


I also help students prepare for piano exams like ABRSM and Trinity. While exams can motivate some students, they’re not suitable for everyone. I never pressure a student into taking an exam if they don’t feel prepared. Exams should always be a positive and fulfilling experience, not a source of stress.

Piano lessons for adults

I teach adult piano students whether they’re taking their first steps into piano playing or returning to it after years of absence. My primary goal is to make the lessons an enjoyable and fulfilling experience.

While I cover the essential techniques and foundations necessary for your musical success, that doesn’t mean your piano lessons have to be boring.
Whether you’re a fan of Beethoven or prefer pop songs arrangements, jazz standards, or accompanying your local choir, your desires will shape the lessons. Your goals and aspirations at the piano will be my guide to tailor the sessions specifically to you.

For a long time, I’ve always wanted to learn how to play the piano, but reluctant due to my inexperience and age. When I signed up with Progress Academy, I was immediately put at ease. My piano tutor, Camila Valerio, has been amazing and very supportive, with sessions tailor-made to my needs. As a tutor, Camila has been very approachable, adaptable, and easy to follow. I would strongly recommend anyone who has been itching to learn, to sign up. You will not be disappointed.

I have been having lessons with Camila for just over a year now, and have made more progress in that time than I did with any other tutors or by using online resources. Camila is patient and takes time to explain musical concepts, and is invested in making sure I am getting the most out of my lessons by delving deeper than what is suggested in the grade books. Camila is supportive of my ambitions for music and ensures that the lessons align with this, by setting challenging but achievable objectives. Camila has had a significant impact on my approach and attitude to learning the piano, and I highly recommend lessons with her.
