About

I teach beginner to advanced level students and all grades from 1-8 in Drums, Vocals, Guitar, Bass guitar, Ukulele and Music Theory.
All ages and levels welcome. I can also offer advice on recording, gigging, music equipment and music theory. I teach various styles from pop, rock, funk, blues to musical theatre and have helped prepare my students for gigs, auditions, all grade exams, GSCE, DofE, school exams and performances, music theatre auditions and X Factor rounds. Many of my regular younger students achieved grade 8 at the age of 10-12 and it’s a joy to see them now forming their own careers in music.
