Charlie Puth is a ‘terrible’ piano teacher

Charlie Puth is "terrible" at teaching people how to play piano.
The ‘Marvin Gaye’ hitmaker – whose mother taught him how to play the instrument himself when he was just four years old – has gone on to inspire other people to follow their passion with music, and while he’s grateful he doesn’t think he’s the best person to learn from.

Last year, the star reveled he had gone an extra step to take control of his sound after undergoing surgery to improve his voice.
He said: "I had nasal surgery to correct my septum, and nobody knows I had surgery. I can sing better now. I was never gonna tell anybody, but I can tell people. If Kylie Jenner can tell everybody…"
