Music Lessons in Cashew
Patient, one-to-one piano and violin lessons that build real skill — and a genuine love of music. For children and adults, taught at a pace that's right for you.
Why Music with Pat
Finding the right music teacher shouldn't be stressful
Most Cashew families aren't looking for a big commercial school with rotating teachers and crowded waiting rooms. They want one dependable teacher who genuinely knows their child — or who can make an adult beginner feel at ease. That's exactly how Patricia teaches: patiently, one-to-one, and at a pace that fits the student, not a timetable.

About Patricia
Patricia has been teaching music for over ten years, and works regularly with families and adult learners across the Cashew area — from first-time beginners to students preparing for their ABRSM exams.
Her background is unusual and valuable: a Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education with Music Education gives her both musical depth and a real understanding of how people learn. She reads where each student is and adjusts accordingly.
She teaches piano and violin, with ABRSM exam preparation available for both — and is equally committed to students who simply want to play for the love of it.

Exam or just for joy
Full ABRSM exam preparation when you want it — or a relaxed, enjoyment-first path when you don't. Patricia adapts to the student's goals.

Lesson Structure
What lessons look like
Lessons are private and one-to-one, running 45 to 60 minutes depending on the student's age and stage. Younger beginners start with shorter, focused sessions that lengthen as stamina and confidence grow.
Each session balances instrument work on piano or violin with musicianship — theory, sight-reading, and ear training — sequenced so students stay engaged without losing the thread. Progress is steady and visible to both student and parent.
The experience is consistent whether you visit the Tengah studio or Patricia travels to your Cashew home. Either way, you get the same attentive, tailored instruction.

Not Just for Children
Adult beginners are welcome too
Plenty of adults in the Cashew and Dairy Farm area pick up an instrument for the first time — or return to one they set aside years ago. Patricia teaches adult piano and adult violin learners with the same patience she brings to her younger students, at a pace that fits around work and family.
There's no such thing as being too old to start. Adults often progress quickly because they bring focus and clear goals — whether that's playing for relaxation, working towards an ABRSM grade, or finally learning a piece they've always loved.
