After leaving my previous teacher due to unforeseen circumstances, I joined Piano-Forte with Manishka Bhogal as my teacher, in May 2018. My first piece was “Clouds” by Pam Wedgwood, after a few of lessons Manishka said that it would be great to have that piece played at the end of the year recital. I was very doubtful; I had not mastered any of the pieces that I had previously worked on. One of my difficulties was timing, but she said that my timing would be good in 2 to 3 months. She gave me easier pieces so that I could build a solid foundation, I feel that I made great progress throughout the year. It is specially gratifying to have developed fairly good timing. Before the end of the … Read more

It has been my dream to play the piano since childhood and I honestly thought that I wouldn’t achieve much at this age. I have started lessons with Manishka this year and have surprised myself at the progress I’ve made in such a short space of time. This is only possible because of Manishka’s personal interest in each student, her patience and dedication as a teacher. She goes the extra mile by requesting videos and sound clips of your practice in the period between lessons and will gladly advise you after hours and on weekends in order to perfect your pieces for the next lesson. Her teaching methods are exciting and innovative and inspire you to keep playing with enthusiasm and joy.… Read more

My daughter (aged 13) has attended lessons with Manishka for about a year. Manishka’s professionalism, patience and amazing talent is the reason for my daughter’s confidence and growth in playing the piano/keyboard. I would highly recommend Piano-Forte.

Just wanted to say a heartfelt thanks for all your efforts during the course of you teaching me. Thank you for inspiring and encouraging me. You have played such an important part of my journey this year and I will always be truly grateful to you. You have a phenomenal gift (the Queen medley was awesome!) and I hope that you will continue to teach and inspire others the way you have done for me!

Under Manishka’s patient, knowledgeable guidance I have blossomed so much since I started piano lessons. She encourages me at every turn and gives useful constructive feedback. I can say with certainty that I will not be where I am today with my piano playing if it weren’t for her. She has a lovely calming and supportive way about her that has made all the difference in my approach to learning music. I can strongly recommend her as an excellent teacher!

I have really enjoyed my time with Manishka. Her constantly encouraging manner made all the difference and helped to give me more confidence with my playing. She always went the extra mile to try help me reach where I wanted to be with my playing and enabled me to do my Trinity Grade 3 exam which I will be forever grateful for. This is not something I had thought I would be able to do. Even now that she has moved away she is still trying to help me improve through sending me sheet music. I admire how she is also constantly working to improve herself so that she may help her students and keep the passion of her own progress going. Her sincerity and patience makes her a really wonderf… Read more

Manishka is a dedicated tutor who goes the extra mile. Since the start of covid, she continued with online lessons and kept her students motivated. I have seen my daughter’s skill with the paino improve tremendously since she joined Paino Forte. I would highly recommend Paino Forte 👌

So I started my lessons with the school in June 17 at the age of 30. I didn’t think I would catch on and learn to play so many songs by the end of the year. I can play “My heart will go on” by Celine Dion. Wow! Manishka is a great teacher, she’s also very patient. Thanks for being patient with me and encouraging me to keep playing. I’m looking forward to another year of growing and improving my playing. If you think you’re too old to play …it’s a lie ..I recommend Piano-forte to anyone who wants to play piano …young and old!

My 8 year old son started piano lessons with Manishka at the beginning of last year (2018). Manishka is a wonderful teacher for children and for adults, she individualizes her approach for each student. Manishka is kind but firm; patient but has expectations. My son had taken two years of piano lessons prior to his year with Manishka but had not learnt to read music or play pieces. Under Manishka’s tutelage however, I would say he has learnt a few pieces and played beautifully and with confidence at his recital. I was deeply pleased with my sons progress over the last year and highly recommend Manishka as a teacher.
