Richard's feedback about Michael (Intermediate Bassoon tuition near Saffron Walden)

I am very grateful to Michael for helping me to achieve my goal of playing bassoon in a wind band. He is very considerate and understanding with a great technical knowledge.

Martin's feedback about Ruth (Beginner Bassoon tuition near Buckley)

Ruth is a brilliant tutor. She's friendly, enthusiastic, and always has good advice. Ruth is also very patient and allows her students time to feel comfortable when they learn something new. She's able to quickly sense her students' level of ability, and tailors her lessons so that learners progress without being overwhelmed. I wholeheartedly recommend Ruth as a tutor.

John's feedback about Susan (Intermediate Bassoon tuition near Matlock)

It is great being tutored by Susan on the bassoon. Having been a sax player for 40+ years and just picking up the bassoon I suppose my requirements for tutoring are different from many people. Susan responds to that challenge very well indeed answering all my questions and providing excellent guidance. I very much enjoy the lessons and the whole experience of learning the bassoon, beast instrument that it is.

Sion's feedback about Rebecca (Advanced Bassoon tuition near Haringey)

She has really taught me a lot, helped me with practising regularly and taught me how to play the bassoon better.

Wendy's feedback about Marcos (Intermediate Bassoon tuition near Bellshill)

Marcos made me feel at ease. His expertise helped me to begin technical improvement. He is encouraging and works jointly on my goals. So far I have found his teaching style to be very helpful and I feel I am improving already.

Christine's feedback about Catherine (Beginner Bassoon tuition near Hailsham)

Catherine is delightful. Very encouraging, especially to an adult beginner! Experienced and helpful in using Zoom to best effect, as well as the teaching of bassoon itself, buying reeds, helping with practical issues, music etc.

Andrew's feedback about Paula (Advanced Bassoon tuition near Camberley)

I have found Paula to be very knowledgeable and she has helped me enormously in my efforts to return to playing the bassoon after many years. An excellent tutor

Linda's feedback about Paul (Beginner Bassoon tuition near Farnham)

Extremely patient and affable.

Angela's feedback about Adam (Beginner Bassoon tuition near Salford)

Both boys are really enjoying their lessons with Adam (aged 11 - saxophone and aged 7 - recorded). He is very engaging and they look forward to their music lessons.

Janet's feedback about Catherine (Beginner Bassoon tuition near Billericay)

Catherine is a very patient and dedicated teacher. Working from a well equipped music room in her home in Essex, she provides fun and engaging lessons and encourages her students to pursue musical interests out of lesson time, such as joining orchestras. Catherine has even attended some orchestral rehearsals with my daughter which is over and above what any other teacher might be prepared to do! She has helped my daughter prepare for her GCSE music ensemble piece and has played alongside her, accompanying her on the bassoon at her secondary school. She has also been invaluable in helping us find a suitable instrument for my daughter to learn on. Catherine started teaching my daughter the bassoon approx. one year ago. At the time she could only play very simple melodies using 3 notes. Within a year, my daughter was able to take her grade 5 bassoon and got a distinction. I fully recommend Catherine as a bassoon teacher.
