Ignite your passion

Our Ethos

Our goal as a music school is to help you cultivate your own unique sound as a musician. By tailoring lessons to the students' tastes and interests, we teach the basics in a fun and supportive way that encourages their passion and creativity. We favour dynamic and creative methods that excite and help you discover your own abilities as a musician.

The key to our teaching philosophy lies in a flexible approach. We understand that not every student learns the same way, so we are committed to being as adaptable to your needs as possible. We believe music lessons and practice should never feel like a chore, and our approach reflects that. Whether you’re a novice or someone with a lot of experience, we’ve got

you covered.

Bronwen

"What a transformation for my daughter! She has gone from being anxious to being confident and happy around her music. She has learnt such a lot, benefitting from the encouragement and guidance in the lessons. She is having a great music adventure with Raven’s Den and looks forward to lessons each week. We can’t wait to see what she’ll learn and do next."

Grace

"At the start of my lessons I was very shy and didn’t know a lot about music. Now I can play guitar chords, read music and have been recording tracks. This has given me the confidence to keep singing and recording. I really have such a lot of fun at Raven’s Den. ."

Sinead Ryan

“Who knew learning music could be such fun for kids? Not the way that I remember it to be! It's so wonderful to see my son looking forward to his piano lessons with Sinéad and coming out energised and beaming afterwards! Sinèad is an absolutely wonderful teacher and has a real passion and love for her art! She has a knack of passing her love of music onto her students too! Would highly recommend her and Ravens Den school of music to anyone! I would give ten stars if it was possible!.”
