Laura

Flute, Oboe, Music Theory

PGCE: PGCE Secondary Music (2010)

performance skills, dealing with performance nerves, stage presence and aural awareness. References to these skills early in musical education, which is sometimes overlooked by teachers of beginner pupils, allow tutees to develop these at a noticeably more advanced level in the future - this I have seen in huge degrees during my private and school-teaching experience. Overall, the teaching must be tailored to what the tutees wish to gain. Some tutees do not wish to...

Piano

Bachelors: BA Hons European Marketing (1996)

yourself and remember more than you realise and get off to a flying start! If piano is totally new to you, but it's something you've always wanted to try, why not book a few lessons to find out if now is the time to fulfil that dream? Adult lessons are typically 45 minutes but you might find 60 minute lessons beneficial after a few weeks. You can choose to pay as you go, or book...

Simon

Ilkley

Piano

College: B Mus (2:1) (1984)

often remain friends when they become adults. And adult pupils often become friends. On a practical level, from the very earliest stages I teach pupils how to teach themselves: I don't just give them off-pat answers. I want them to realise that teasing out the music from the notes written on the page is a fantastic challenge. As a performer I'm a classical musician, but I enjoy teaching jazz - particularly how to improvise around...

and that includes giving options to help them best choose their path. My focus is on creating diciplined but fun lessons to make sure the progress being made by the student is appropriate and that they understand why they are doing what they are doing. I'm always looking for new books, methods and exercises to keep the lessons fresh with a focus to concentrate on the students interests. I introduce listening excersies with the use...

Nadine

Piano, Clarinet, Music Theory

PGCE: Pass (2005)

more active and creative approach for example through the use of flash cards and card games to develop their knowledge of the actual music. For older students and adults I feel it is important to have a balance between practical and music theory elements in lessons. I am happy to teach a variety of musical genres, work towards exam grades or just for the love of playing. I have had success using Rock School, LCM...
