I can highly recommend Chelsea as a music teacher! She is friendly, well organized and a knowledgeable teacher.
Her love for music shines through every lesson se teaches, and I always look forward to my singing lesson on a Tuesday.

Chelsea is an EXCEPTIONAL music teacher. I've had the pleasure of learning from Chelsea for the last 3 months and she is one of the best music teachers I have ever encountered.
Her deep knowledge and passion for music was clear from the very first lesson. Chelsea caters to each students individual needs and learning style and explains concepts clearly and patiently.
Chelsea has not only inspired me to be a better pianist but has helped me learn to truly enjoy and connect with the music I play.
If you're looking for a music teacher who is passionate, patient, inspirational and truly invested in your musical journey , I can't recommend Chelsea enough.

I started with Piano lessons with Chelsea about 3 months ago. And what a tremendous experience it has been. Not only has she made it extremely easy and accessible to grasp musical concepts, but she always creates the most relaxing atmosphere which also helps with learning. Chelsea is a rare gem when it comes to tutoring/teaching and I don't think I would have been enjoying the piano so much if it wasn't for her. A real 'Miss Honey'! Thank You so much Chelsea!

My daughter hated piano, but we insisted that she should continue with lessons, after we learnt that she was bunking classes in primary school. When she went to High School Mrs SP, Take Note Music, tutored her and she immediately developed an amazing love to play the piano.
She now practices and sings, with passion, on a daily basis. She even plays the piano before going to her matric final exams now. Mrs SP has guided her and awakened an amazing love for the piano. Hannah loves her lessons and Mrs SP is very in tune with how to guide and lead Hannah, in order to enjoy and explore playing different genres of music.
Her love for piano, her amazing ability to connect with and understand the pupil, her lovely voice and amazing teaching skills, as well as her caring nature has taken Hannah's love for piano and music to the next level and Hannah continues to want to learn and grow under her tutoring! Mrs SP and Take Note Music comes highly recommended! We absolutely love her lessons (yes, I also love to sit in and listen when she teaches and I often sing along)!

Her teaching style is engaging and tailored to each student, making lessons enjoyable and effective. Whether you're a beginner or looking to advance your skills, Chelsea has the expertise and passion to help you succeed. If you're considering piano lessons, look no further!

After a tedious search to find the appropriate tutor, I started piano lessons with Chelsea in March of this year as an adult learner (with rudimentary piano knowledge from childhood). She was immediately on board with my vision to continue on with my grades through TCL and I have thoroughly enjoyed the music lessons and the rapid progress I have made with her in this short period.
Chelsea is incredibly accommodating and tailors the lessons according to the comfortability of the student. She is also a warm, vibrant personality (with the patience of a saint) and has an infectious enthusiasm for the instrument and the student's personal goals. I actually get a bit sad if I miss a lesson. I would highly recommend her to any budding musicians wanting to elevate their skillset :)

Chelsea Simmonds is the most amazing piano teacher. She makes you feel relaxed, nothing is too much trouble. She has a calming presence, she is patient and kind. She speaks clearly and communicates well. She is always punctual and lets you know in advance if she is running late.

Chelsea (Take Note Music) has been my piano tutor for about a year now. I always had the desire to play the piano since I was a child but I never had the opportunity to do so back then. It was very daunting for me to start classes in my forties. Luckily for me, I found the perfect tutor in Chelsea. She is extremely musically gifted, warm, kind, patient and has the most sunny disposition! It has been so easy to learn from her and she is always accessible to me between sessions when I need guidance.
My 8 year old daughter is also tutored by Chelsea and she is thoroughly enjoying her sessions as well. This highlights how easily Chelsea adapts her teaching techniques across age groups.
I highly recommend Chelsea to all those seeking private tutoring in Cape Town.

Good music teacher, the one values your talent.

Versatile, highly recommended, able to communicate well and make the piano seem simple! Great teacher.
Annette Löwe
Chelsea is the most incredible music teacher I have ever had. She inspired me to try playing the flute at 24 years old, insisting I looked like I could play it! I didn’t believe her at first, but tried on a borrowed flute and under a year later, I was playing songs and duets and having an absolute blast - all while preparing for my grade 3 flute exam. She made lessons so enjoyable and chose interesting, fun music that always had me wanting to play and built my confidence up hugely. I couldn’t recommend this energetic, bubbly, passionate lady enough as a music teacher.
