Private Lessons for French Horn, Piano, Music Theory

Are you looking for a personalized and inspiring approach to learning music? I offer private lessons designed to fit your individual needs, whether you're just starting or looking to advance your skills. With a Music Degree, Trinity LTCL in Horn, ABRSM Grade 8 in Piano, ABRSM Grade 8 in Music Theory, and over 15 years of teaching experience, I bring both expertise and a passion for teaching to every lesson.

Lesson Format:
Each lesson is tailored to the student’s learning style and goals. I believe in creating a supportive and engaging environment where students feel comfortable and confident.

• French Horn: Focus on building a strong foundation of technique, tone, and musicality, incorporating with scales, exercises, and repertoire, along with ear training and performance practice. We’ll work on developing your embouchure, sound and expression, no matter your level.

• Piano: From beginner to advanced, I teach everything from music fundamentals and sight-reading to more complex techniques and performance skills. I strive to make learning fun while ensuring students understand music theory and develop a solid technical base.

• Music Theory: These lessons will deepen your understanding of music, from basic notation and harmony to advanced concepts such as counterpoint and form. I take a practical approach, applying theory directly to your instrument.

Lesson Dynamics:
I believe in a balance of structure and flexibility. Each lesson is interactive, with regular feedback and encouragement. I help students set clear, achievable goals and track their progress, ensuring we celebrate each milestone along the way.

My Teaching Philosophy:
I take a patient and compassionate approach, understanding that every student learns at their own pace. I aim to instill a love for music, whether it's the joy of playing the instrument or the satisfaction of completing a performance.
If you're looking for a dedicated, experienced, and inspiring teacher, I’d love to help you reach your full potential. Feel free to contact me for more information or to schedule your first lesson!
