Information About Luke - Haringey teacher

Personal Description:

I’m a London-based freelance composer and teacher with 20 years experience tutoring pupils from beginner through to post grade 8.

I’ve been playing piano since the age of 8, obtaining my degrees in music from Kings College London and Trinity College of Music whilst receiving piano tuition at the Royal Academy of Music. I specialise in both Classical and Jazz piano whilst also offering tutoring in music theory, composition, arrangement and aural training.

As a composer I work across a range of disciplines and media. I perform regularly and have had works performed both nationally and internationally.

Tutoring Experience:

Teaching-wise I have worked both in-school and privately and from one-to-one up to whole class groups. I believe my experience enables me to offer specialised yet highly flexible tuition across a range of styles. I am passionate that students attain their goals and find playing to be a fun and rewarding experience!

Tutoring Approach:

I teach a wide range of students, some of whom are pursuing classical piano whilst others are improvising in jazz or rock styles or playing rock and pop songs. I am always happy for pupils to try the music they wish to be able to play, and can always make suggestions along these lines.

I consider playing piano to be an immensely rewarding and enjoyable pastime that repays the work put into it. It is never to late to learn and whilst there is no end to the process it is possible to derive pleasure playing from the very earliest stages!
