Teaching Info
Begin with technical warm up, work on problem areas, set smaller goals for the lesson, work on up to 3 pieces, basic theory. Some of my students want to do a theory examination and I assist in this – up to 15/20 mins per 1 hour lesson. My students have accomplished 100% pass rate, with distinction.
Good relationships have brought many successes and victories in accomplishing great strides in music education. I love my profession and my students can tell that.
I will be teaching from my home in Lincoln-Springston. Price negotiable for travel to student home.
I look forward to meeting you and discussing the future of your/your child’s music journey.
