Bio
A full-time Music teacher graduating with a First Class Honours Degree who is hard-working, reliable, organised and kind. Since graduating, I have been providing music tuition for all ages, both self-employed and in secondary schools, I have performed regularly in many venues across the UK as a singer/songwriter, and have performed on a tour across Scotland promoting the successful release of my first EP. I have also participated in delivering musical workshops in youth groups.
I have tutored pupils privately since 2016 in piano, keyboard, voice, guitar and music theory. Throughout my time doing this, I also taught at the Rhythm Box music school in Aberdeen and The Edinburgh School of Music. When I completed my PGCE in education in 2020, I became a full-time music teacher, working in a comprehensive school in Edinburgh first before joining an all boys Grammar School in Kent. What I love most about tutoring is seeing pupils develop their skills through working on songs of their choice – I believe that by having the freedom to choose what they want to play, they will feel more motivated and inspired to learn.
Teaching Info
All lessons can be tailored to individual needs. I also recommend certain books to help get students started such as the John Thompson piano books, the ABRSM piano syllabus, Rockschool guitar books. I have a variety of pop song books and can find pieces of music online should pupils request a specific song.
Zoe has been helping my 9 year old daughter with her piano sight reading. She has a lovely patient manner and Jasmine really enjoys the lesson even when the subject matter is quite challenging for her. As a parent I appreciate that Zoe remembers what I've told her about Jasmine's abilities and how to get the best out of her. I appreciate Zoe's focused, flexible and professional approach.
