Personal Description:
I come from a musical background; my father was a violinist and his mother was a ballerina. As a youngster, I played violin and harmonica, then after, studied working in engineering. In my early twenties, I took up the clarinet and subsequently taught myself many other instruments, such as Saxophone, Flute, and Violin. I Play music regularly in concert bands, and in a local orchestra, usually playing the violin. I studied music at Christ Church University and then completed a BA Hons degree at the Open University. I currently teach the Clarinet, Saxophone, Violin, & Flute. In addition, the rudiments of music are to an advanced level. I frequently entertain the public at local functions as a multi-instrumentalist and studied an MA in Music at the Open University.
Tutoring Experience:
Ten years across all instruments that I teach.
I have experience in teaching and preparing students for the ABRSM exam. This is for the Music Performance Exam & Music Theory of all ages.
Tutoring Approach:
My aim with music lessons is always to get the full potential of all pupils continually learning new skills. In addition, my approach is to develop musical ability to either pass Graded exams such as the ABRSM or to get a pupil at the required standard to join a local band. The student's needs at the end of the day are most important when choosing the type of music lesson they're after to suit their requirements.

Having Leo as my tutor has been amazing not only is he patient but really has been great at helping me start my dream of learning music .
In 5 weeks I feel I have made brilliant progress thanks to Leo , something I wasn’t sure I would achieve. I have lessons weekly and Leo leaves me with exercises to work on though out the week . I definitely feel I have the right tutor for me .
The eloquent review message you wrote regarding my teaching ability is encouraging. I feel glad that my musical experience can bring joy from playing a musical instrument. You are doing very well with your lessons and will look forward to you achieving and bringing out the skill of playing the saxophone to a higher musical standard.
Leo
I very much appreciate your encouraging feedback report on the quality
of my teaching skills.
Kind regard,
Leo
He was very encouraging, and helpful with advice about types of oboes to buy in the future.
I was very happy with my first oboe lesson with Leo.
