About Katie C.

"Hi! My availability is quite limited, but I do have weekday morning and early afternoon slots left.

Katie is based in Huddersfield and has been teaching for 20 years. Her skills enable her to quickly demonstrate and teach music to students by ear, standard notation, or whatever approach the student feels most comfortable in. With her background of classical training and touring with rock bands, Katie has a wide variety of experience in performing. She is friendly and patient, with a passion for all things musical!

Katie's priority as a teacher is to put the student first in terms of the music they are interested in, and alter her teaching approach to suit each individual, whatever their needs may be. The lesson is all about the student; what they want to achieve be it grading or personal goals, or simply to enjoy playing music for the love of it ! Katie has tutored many students over the years for music exams, with the boards ABRSM and ROCKSCHOOL, with a 100% pass rate, with theory of music offered also.

Katie is skilled at arranging music, so that any piece of music the student wishes to learn can be adapted to a suitable level. The most important aspect is to start playing the music that you, the student enjoy!
