Ashbea Music Avis 

We have been so lucky to come across your 11+MAT videos on YouTube that gave our daughter a deeper understanding in all the sections of the exam. We also subscribed for the app which helped her practise daily during the summer. I highly recommend this as it gives instant feedback to your child’s answers and prepares them for the real MAT exams. I could see how this extra tool gave her confidence and after a few sessions of online tuition she in fact achieved a good result to go through the second stage. Bea has been exceptionally supportive. Her expertise with the 11+ exams guided our daughter with how to prepare best and what to expect during the exam. Our daughter achieved a good ranking overall and we have a good chance to get in the first preference school. Thank you, Bea

We had x3 online lessons with Bea and x1 with Ash for our son to familiarise and prep for state school music aptitude test. They are lovely musician professionals, very knowledgeable about the format of both round 1 and round 2 test, and provided positive comments and encouragement throughout the lessons - it seems that our son is securing the spot now! He said that the lessons really did help. Thanks so much Bea and Ash.

Bea was really helpful in preparing for the music aptitude tests for secondary schools. She was warm, friendly, encouraging and knowledgeable. She helped my daughter know what to expect, what each section of the test was looking for and offered exam tips. The app was also really helpful for additional practice. We would highly recommend Bea if you are looking for someone to help your child prepare for 11+ music exams.

Bea has been teaching my sons for almost two years now. They are working towards grades 8 & 6 and the level of teaching from Bea has been at the correct level for their grades. They hadn’t had regular online lessons previously, but I have been impressed how smooth this has been with the setup Bea has in place. Both boys have moved up a grade in the last year and Bea is good at ensuring that as well as working through the grades, the lessons are enjoyable. I find Bea very thorough and keeps the boys on their toes by ensuring that focused homework is set. Thanks Bea for the last two years.

It's amazing how much I have learnt for just half an hour a week! Because of this course I managed to pass both my grade exams and my GCSE music exam with flying colours! Definitely helps with revision and generally just learning about the music, if you're looking for a course, this one is it.

Bea has been my daughter's music and piano teacher for almost three years. In addition to her talent as a musician, she has the ability to motivate her students and organise her curriculum so that the student acquires knowledge at their own pace and in the way they learn best. Her enthusiasm, her gift for teaching, her patience with children and her ability to know when to challenge and when to offer the student space to create their own music is extraordinary. This past year she also prepared my daughter for the 11+ Music Aptitude Test (both the Listening and Performance tests) and after a lot of work and effort between my daughter and her, the result has been great - my daughter got 42 out of 45 points. I also recommend her classes because she is always there for us, always professional and kind. We love her!

Bea has been an incredible music teacher for my 8-year-old son. From the very beginning, she created a warm, welcoming environment that made him feel comfortable and excited to learn music online. Her teaching style is perfectly suited for young children—she’s patient, encouraging, and knows exactly how to make lessons fun while ensuring real progress is made.

Bea’s ability to keep my son engaged and motivated is amazing. She balances the technical aspects of music with creative activities that spark his interest, and I’ve seen his confidence grow week by week. Whether it's learning to read music or mastering a new piece, Bea makes every step enjoyable and rewarding.

I couldn’t be happier with my son’s progress under Bea’s guidance. She’s a fantastic teacher, and I highly recommend her and Ashbea music to any parent looking for a skilled, caring music instructor for their child.
