Personal Description:
I am a qualified teacher with honours degree in education and music and I love Music! I have taught clarinet to grade 8 standard. I have taught music theory to grade 5. I also play guitar, both classical and chords (strumming and singing songs!) I spent a lot of my youth having piano lessons and reached grade 5 level.
Tutoring Experience:
I have had 18 years teaching experience within primary schools teaching all core and foundation subjects and have been co-ordinator of music for most of that time. I enjoy singing and I play in a Concert Band which is really fun! I have also taught clarinet, guitar and theory privately.
Tutoring Approach:
Firstly it has to be fun! I love to ask the children what types of music they like and along with the graded exams I like to incorporate some of the childrens favourite music. Normally after a years tuition, if the tutee has practised regularly at home I would enter them for a graded exam which consists of chosen pieces from a list, a study, scales, singing and listening to different types of music and being able to answer questions on this.

I’m really happy with Delia’s professionalism and her ability to engage my year 4 son with his SPAG. I never thought he would have enjoyed learning so much.
