A.L.C.M. BSc Hons

 

I am available to teach piano and harp and I am an Associate of the London College of Music, (ALCM). I really enjoy working with people of all ages, from children, to adults perhaps taking up an old passion again, or who have always wanted to play and never made the move! Although harp is currently my main performance instrument, I am equally at home teaching piano, especially as this was originally my first instrument.

 

I have had a wide range of experience, both personal and professional, including: taking large workshops for 70-80 children, entertaining children at events, working with the elderly in nursing homes and day centres, Alzheimers patients, the disabled and those with various special needs. I have in particular had the privilege of working recently with Sunbeams Music Trust.

 

Originally classically trained, I now play a wide range of styles of music, including contemporary, classical, jazz and latin, and I am keen from my own experiences to encourage children especially to look at different styles of music, developing their own passions as well as techniques.

 

Having had the privilege of growing up watching my mum from a young age - an amazing teacher and mentor for children and adults alike - inspiring and giving confidence to many individuals of various backgrounds and circumstances, and additionally from the many invaluable ‘teachers’ I have been lucky to encounter myself, I have always had a great admiration and thirst for teaching.

 

Please give me a call to discuss what you are looking for and for further details. I am happy also to help students through graded exams for any syllabus.
