Personal Description:

With over 15 years of teaching experience, I have had the pleasure of guiding students from their very first lesson to more advanced musicians. I have taught one-to-one, groups and in masterclass. For young children, I incorporate the Suzuki method and Solfege, while for older children preparing for grade exams, I integrate specific techniques to enhance their understanding and skills. For adults who are learning for fun, I offer a quicker approach so they can play their favourite tunes in no time.

Based in North West London, I provide flexible and accessible learning options that foster creativity and imagination. I am deeply committed to each student's musical journey, regardless of their engagement with music. My aim is for students to experience the richness of music and grow personally.

Just as my own teachers nurtured my musical development, I strive to do the same for my students. Throughout my career, I have guided many students to achieve high marks in ABRSM and Trinity College grade exams, secure scholarships, and successes in competitions.

Tutoring Experience:

With over 15 years of teaching experience, I have had the pleasure of guiding students from their very first lesson to more advanced musicians. I have taught one-to-one, groups and in masterclass.

Tutoring Approach:

Lessons are structured to fit each student’s age, learning style and ability. I also put importance in having a balance between theory based learning and practical learning. I can specialise in preparing students for grade exams, auditions and concerts.

I regularly organise student concerts so that they learn to enjoy performing and develop stage skills.
