My STORY
WHY VISUal notes?
Endless online meetings, talking heads and reams of text has turned us into Zoom-droolers: utterly steamrollered by the endless words coming at us.Remembering my best mathematics teacher who DREW EVERY CONCEPT so I could finally
"get it", I started to replace all the blocks of text and superfluous chat with
* Images * Icons Models
* Diagrams Characters *Video
* Story and Artistic text.
Now it is my pleasure and passion to cater to a world of folks who simply learn, comprehend and remember better with visuals.
Since then I have helped professionals, mentors and personal friends to capture and communicate valuable information with clarity (and maybe a little humor too). I love it, and so do they!
"I am thrilled to recommend Maria Palmer—one of the most talented Sketchnoters and kindhearted educators I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Her brilliance knows no boundaries. Maria has a unique gift for simplifying complex ideas and visually capturing insights in a way that brings clarity, creativity, and joy to the learning process.We’ve collaborated on several projects, including teaching social media marketing systems, and I’ve seen firsthand how she blends strategic thinking with artistic talent. Her ability to break down concepts and transfer knowledge visually is a game-changer for any team or audience.I’m especially excited that she is now sharing her talent weekly on our newest collaborative project. Maria’s presence not only enhances the learning experience but uplifts everyone around her with her generosity, professionalism, and genuine spirit.If you're looking for someone to help elevate your content, simplify your message, or amplify your team’s learning, I wholeheartedly recommend Maria. Her talent is a true gift to any project."— Gillian Murray

MRs. P's PIANO MAGIC
PIANO/KEYBOARD LESSONS ONLINE OR IN-PERSON
Is there anything more satisfying & fun than being able to play your favorite hymn, Taylor Swift song or video game tune? Singing along or composing your own - and bringing joy to others at the same time.
Piano lessons are so good for screen-drenched, attention deficit, bored or super-creative minds. I have over 25 years experience helping students find their musical magic.
With three teaching degrees and Royal Schools of Music Examinations Board qualifications, my favorite part of teaching is devising lessons that suit each student's individual learning style and interests. I even create my own teaching materials using my graphic illustration sketchnoting skills to help all that learning to stick!
Recital MetroGnomes help keep those pianists counting!
