Trained at RNCM in Popular Music (Guitar) - 3 years of teaching experience in groups and 1-1 lessons. Extensively taught the Trinity Rock and Pop grades (1-8), well versed in all popular music genres
I've been a professional freelance musician for the last 4 years and began working more casually in the industry 8 years ago!
The work has consisted mostly of session work, meaning I perform various artists original music for them as well as spending time in studios to record their music which has been so much fun!
I have also taught in various music schools, privately and in community rock school projects. In addition to this I have co-written and produced various projects, which I loved getting to do! And I've done more mundane work like functions/ bar/ weddings which help to pay for creative endeavours that sometimes don't pay very well/ at all.
I prefer to structure my lessons around the individual and create a path to unlocking their personal goals. Regardless of ability we'll structure a lesson plan around your needs and goals.
I've taught in various settings - Rock school style Band perfomance, 1-1 grade book lessons (trinity rock and pop), 1-1 unstructured lessons (learning favourite songs and developing technique), Jazz guitar and general musicianship
I think it is important to develop an understanding of the guitar's relation to music and role within a band, as well as incorporating basic music theory to help make sense of the fretboard and give you the knowledge to independently learn away from lessons.
