About Me

Hi, I’m Patrina—but many of my students know me as Teacher Pat! I’ve been a passionate music educator since 2012. In the mornings, you’ll find me in schools teaching xylophones, ukulele, keyboard, and all sorts of fun instruments. In the afternoons, I’m a private piano tutor, working one-on-one to guide students on their musical journey.

When COVID hit in 2019, face-to-face lessons came to a sudden halt. Like many, I had to adapt quickly—and I discovered something unexpected: my students could still learn effectively online. In fact, they were picking up piano techniques and songs just as well as they did in person. That sparked an idea—what if I could bring this way of learning to more people, beyond my usual classroom?

In 2024, the opportunity came when I began recording exam pieces to support my students. That led to sharing tutorials on YouTube, starting with song requests from friends and viewers. Slowly but surely, a community began to grow.

It’s been such a fulfilling and rewarding journey creating online tutorials. My goal is to continue offering valuable music lessons that anyone can access—no matter where they are in the world. Whether you're just starting or picking up piano again, I’m here to help you learn one song at a time.
