Personal Description:
I am currently the organist of Saint Theodore's Church, Port Talbot. Whilst studying the organ at Cardiff University, I was the organ scholar of Saint Augustine’s Church, Rumney. Prior to this, I was the organ scholar of Llandovery College during my time there as a pupil. I have vast amounts of experience in keyboard music, especially relating to the baroque period and early music in general. I have been an active composer and performer in the South Wales area for over a decade. I have performed in various musicals over this time period and as a musical director I have had to teach and be patient with any mistakes that may arise on stage.
Tutoring Experience:
I have experience of teaching all ages and I am currently working in local schools as part of my work experience through Cardiff University as well as my PGCE course with UWTSD. Over the past few years I have taught privately as a piano and music theory teacher.
Tutoring Approach:
I look to make learning accessible and enjoyable for all ages and abilities while learning the fundamentals of music. For those looking to gain some musical qualifications, I follow the the ABRSM exam syllabus and the RSCM voice for life series. I cater to casual learners as well by putting the emphasis on the enjoyment of the music rather than preparation for exams. I also look to excite pupils for their grades rather than worry them about getting full marks; after all, it’s the musicality and the enjoyment that are the most important things.
