I am an accomplished musician and accompanist with extensive performance experience in the UK and overseas. I have over 35 years' instrument teaching, specialist performance coaching and school Head of Department teaching experience, including GCSE, 'A' Level and IB. I tailor my teaching to individual needs and challenge all ability levels. I also provide empowerment coaching to help shy musicians secure parts /roles and achieve performance success. With a relaxed, encouraging, 'coaching' style, I strive to nurture everyone's musical skills, confidence and enjoyment.
