My Mission

Enjoy Learning

As an educator, I pride myself on getting genuine enjoyment from all the students I teach. I welcome students of any age, as I have experience teaching ages 4+ on a variety of instruments, and I have extensive experience working with SEND pupils, specifically tutoring young people with Autistic Spectrum Disorder.

I get great enjoyment from teaching beginner’s piano but also thrive off mentoring post-grade 8 students to achieve a higher level of playing.

My Experience as a Teacher

I'm a Clarinetist, Saxophonist and Pianist recently relocated to Manchester having finished a year of teaching in Malaysia and performing in Singapore and New York. I have worked for music services for 6 years teaching instrumentally and this past year held the post of Musician in Residence at Marlborough College Malaysia.

As a performer, I have worked professionally on the West End and Broadway. I played Clarinet for the Royal Shakespeare Company's promenade production of Julius Caesar and have worked under the baton of Marin Alsop, the only female conductor to have conducted The Last Night of The Proms.

As a pianist, I have accompanied the Tony Award-winning singer, Michael McElroy and the Broadway Boys whilst in New York and I also took part in workshops with the Broadway casts of The Lion King and Wicked. As a saxophonist, I have performed at famous Jazz clubs, BBkings and Swing46. All these experiences have taught me invaluable lessons that I have brought to my teaching and can bring to you as students.

More About Me & My Lessons

I have entered students for ABRSM and Trinity College Exams, but for those that just want to try something new that is great also! During my undergraduate degree, I worked as a musical director around Yorkshire. Through this, I gained several skills I have applied to my teaching, especially in the recent online format. The creation of rehearsal tracks, fun exercises, and video tutorials to follow at home.

When directing pantomimes, I became very proficient with logic pro and in the creating of virtual ensemble videos using Final Cut Pro. These skills have aided my teaching massively, particularly for my pop students as I am able to record them so they can create their own album. Even during Covid-19, I can edit performances of my students together so they can still enjoy a version of ensemble performance.

Whatever you wish to get out of music lessons, I personalize my teaching methods to each student and endevour to help you achieve your goals.
