I have been successfully teaching instrumental music for 16 years specialisng in violin and as a qualified Teacher of Secondary Music for 13 years. I have taught thousands of students across all age ranges and abilities from beginners to post Grade 8 on the violin, viola, piano, guitar, recorders, and music theory. I have created my own resources and schemes of work following the National Curriculum for Music in secondary and primary settings and for my private teaching. I am continuously evaluating and adapting my teaching methods and developing new resources to meet the ever-changing needs of all my students.
