I have over 10 years of music composition, production and performance experience. I am a producer and mixer for a number of artists and have had my work featured across BBC Radio 1, 1Xtra, and 6Music, with recognition from the likes of Gilles Peterson and Jamz Supernova. Having studied at The Royal Birmingham Conservatoire (Jazz Guitar) and Leeds Conservatoire (Jazz and Production), I incorporate my education background in jazz and classical music to bring an in-depth perspective on teaching the likes of the guitar, music theory, composition and production for a range of ages and abilities. I can also provide additional support for students studying GCSE/A-Level Music, as well as delivering unique and personalised lesson plans tailored to musicians’ and artists’ own career goals and aspirations (from recording to music business).

I teach in both 1-1 and small group scenarios, both online and face to face. As an actively recording and touring artist and session musician, I have worked with a huge array of different musicians, artists and producers and have been exposed to a broad range of genres worldwide. I use this knowledge and experience to bring a unique and fresh approach to teaching music in a range styles and techniques, from Jazz to Hip-Hop to Classical Music - whether that be analysing and examining a tune together, learning to improvise over your favourite piece of music or simply playing for the fun of it! It is important that I grasp an understanding of where my students are at with their instrument or subject before we begin learning together, so that I can plan and ensure I approach the lesson in the right way. I can provide materials, such as worksheet activities or listening references, to allow enhanced learning as well as efficiency during sessions. Most of all, it is important that my students feel relaxed and that they are learning what they love. I make it my challenge to bring something fresh and new to every lesson!
