Tutoring Experience:

Teaching Credits:
I am a qualified teacher who holds DBS and is a member of the Musicians Union and the Society of Education and Teaching. I have taught for 9 years privately and have also worked at BIMM, in Primary Schools and Chichester College. Because of my experience at BIMM and Chichester College, I can advise students with making choices and preparing for courses, I know what you need to be successful. I am an energetic tutor who brings positivity, personality, fun and a personal approach to every lesson ! As you can see, I currently teach a mixed bag, some students study just one subject whereas others like to mix it up and develop more than one skill - this is up to you !! As a tutor I teach music 121, in small groups and in workshops. I teach all ages and can assess your ability and my suitability in a free consultation.
