Tutoring Approach:
My teaching is tailored to the students needs, overall improving them on their instrument. This includes musicianship skills as it will give them a greater understanding of the music. This includes teaching different styles of music, understanding its musical features and learning performing techniques.

He is extremely patient, professional and knowledgeable and takes his time to explain the music theory to my sons.
My other son who plays the guitar is getting ready for his grade 1 exam. During lock down we moved to online teaching and still my boys have progressed.
I am really pleased with his teaching style and the progress my boys have made. A true gem find.
He is flexible, reliable, knowledgeable, structured, patient and is very diligent. He works as a music teacher which I think makes a difference.
