Tutoring Experience:

I am a highly experienced teacher, tutor and mentor with expertise in working with both children and adults and can offer tuition to those who are preparing for examinations, recitals, concerts or those who simply wish to get some enjoyment from their chosen instrument.

Tutoring Approach:

I believe that learning a musical instrument is a special gift which can have lifelong benefits. As well as helping learners achieve their goals my teaching is very student centred and presented in a relaxed, caring and very patient manner.
