Tuition
- I offer friendly and personalised one-to-one sessions, to clients of all ages, abilities and previous experience
- Rather than rigidly tutoring to a curriculum, I continually develop, in partnership with the student, a structure and pace guided by their own individual learning style
- I try to develop with my clients, a respect and understanding of many different kinds of music, and to develop skills which will give maximum opportunity in any area of music the client goes on to choose
- I offer sessions focused on fiddle / violin / viola
- I offer sessions focused on piano / keyboard
- I offer sessions (useful to students at all levels) covering a wide variety of fundamental musical skills and understanding using various different instruments, notably recorders, whistles, voice, percussion and guitar, as well as the instruments listed above
If you are daunted by these options, unsure of which is for you, or simply want to know more, then please feel free to drop me a line at:
A one-off consultation session can usually be arranged if desired.
