About Rika
I am a dedicated musician who aims to inspire through performing and teaching. My specialisms are piano repertoire of all genres and periods, and music theory and improvisation. I am active both as a teacher and performer, giving regular masterclasses, workshops, and concerts. I have taught at the University of York for 4 years, giving piano tuitions and chamber music coaching, and happy to cover ABRSMGrade/GCSEs/UCAS exams as well as more performance oriented entrance preparation for conservatoires and music schools. In 2016, I have founded a summer music festival Tudeley Festival of Chamber Music and Voice in Tudeley, Tonbridge, where I act as the music director and hold annual masterclasses. I have been involved with various projects, collaborated with numerous composers to bring their compositions available to the audiences at both major concert halls and more intimate performance platforms. I make teaching visits to university music departments and conservatoires and give a private teaching practice from my home in Tunbridge Wells, Kent. A trained hypnotherapist, one-to-one enhanced piano lessons with hypnotherapy to unblock your true potentiality is also available upon request.

Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to real lessons experienced by the students of Rika.
Perfect! Rika was very knowledgeable of the Baroque style of music and was able to help my son gain a greater understanding of the piece he is learning. She also identified some ways he could improve his posture in order to improve smoothness and accuracy of playing.
Perfect! Rika is absolutely lovely. A very patient and thoughtful tutor who went above and beyond for my daughters - looking into pieces that would interest them according to their taste in music, sending the sheet music over for any piece that interested them. She even attended my daughter's music concert at her school. Recommend her highly.
Perfect! Rika is very gentle and stands back to let you play. She had useful comments and advice on physical and technical factors relating to problems - some of which I’d identified myself, and others that she picked up from watching me play. She had good suggestions on interpretation, with useful advice on how to implement changes. I enjoyed the lesson very much and am looking forward to more.
We have agreed to concentrate on two pieces, which are both pieces I want to play, and which she has advised as they have different but complementary characteristics.
I liked the Yamaha piano and the playing space is glorious.See more reviews
