Adult Beginner
Nervous you’ve left it too late? Start with calm, clear lessons that build real understanding from your very first notes.

Turn “playing by ear” into a real musical toolkit. Learn the chords, progressions, and patterns behind the tracks you love.
Returning Hobbyists
Haven’t played in years? Gently rebuild your skills, confidence, and musical fluency with structured support and zero judgement.
THE INVISION MUSIC METHOD
Learning music as an adult doesn’t have to feel confusing, rushed, or based on “natural talent.”
At InVision Music, everything is built around one idea: you should understand what you’re hearing and playing.
Your lessons combine ear training, music theory, and piano technique together, the same way working musicians think about music.
Instead of memorising shapes or copying tutorials, you learn to recognise patterns, name them, and play them with control.
This approach works whether you’re starting from scratch, coming back after years away, or creating in a DAW. Each online lesson is structured, paced for adults with busy lives, and focused on meaningful progress you can actually feel and measure.
The Three Pillars
This is the foundation for a clear, connected way to learn, so you see meaningful results in measurable time. You're not just memorising songs, you're training your ears, mind and hands to work together, building skills that stick.
Ear Training: Hearing the Patterns
You'll train your ear to recognise intervals, rhythms, chords and song structure. We work on both your "outer ear" (what you hear) and your "inner ear" (what you can imagine), so you're not guessing anymore. You'll be hearing clearly.
Practical Theory: Naming What You Hear
Music theory becomes practical when it's tied to sound. You'll learn how to use scales, chords and chord progressions as tools, not trivia. Theory gives you language for the patterns your ear is already starting to recognise.
Technique: Playing with Ease and Control
Technique is how your hands keep up with your ears and ideas. You'll build comfortable hand position, timing, hand independence and coordination. Enough physical freedom to express the music you're starting to understand.
HI, I'm James
Teacher & Founder of InVision Music
In 2015 I founded InVision Music to give adult learners an alternative to traditional "follow the book" piano lessons. My teaching philosophy brings together listening, theory and technique so you can hear music differently, think about it more clearly and express yourself with confidence.
“Friendly and informative, easy to arrange lessons. James is very knowledgeable and has made musical theory less of a mystery. Would highly recommend him”
