Just piano is located in a quiet rural setting, providing students with a comfortable learning environment and the opportunity to
develop their musical skills without interruption.
It boasts a newly refurbished reading/study area where parents are invited to relax and enjoy listening in on the lessons.
The studio has an upright piano for use during lessons and a grand piano which facilitates the opportunity for students to showcase performances.
Just Piano has an established student base of varying age ranges and encourages children and adults to study the instrument.
Just piano was opened in 2012 by Sylvia McCullough who studied music at the University of Ulster to Master’s level.
Sylvia has also completed the PTLLS (Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector) course with SERC, enhancing her facilitation skills in teaching.
Sylvia’s early influences include classical and church music and she was encouraged to learn the piano from an early age.
The study of music at Ulster University paved the way for the creation of the music studio.
Sylvia is a member of the Incorporated Society of Musicians. Working in the private sector as a piano tutor, this is an opportunity for her to exchange ideas, share common interests and voice concerns in all things music.
It is Sylvia’s personal belief that music instruction and experiences could be key in early education. Learning piano is a focused study, with learners acquiring attitudes and disciplines which will help them in other areas of study.
