Teaching Info

I’ve taught for nearly five years, working previously for Portsmouth Grammar School/Portsmouth Cathedral and the Tri-borough Music Hub (Hammersmith) as a teaching assistant, before recently building my solo studio more. I’m DBS checked and enjoy teaching students of all ages; it’s never too early or late to start exploring wonderful music and learning new skills. I’m keen to work flexibly with learners towards any goals they are pursuing. ABRSM and Trinity grades offer an excellent foundational knowledge, but some learners may prefer a more personal approach. I strongly believe learning the theory alongside good technique develops the ability to understand repertoire individually, enabling learners to explore the music they want to independently. I’m happy to offer a consultation lesson to further understand the learners goals and needs, and look forward to working alongside you.
