I have a friendly approach to teaching, always being encouraging and supportive whether it be preparing for an exam of just for fun. I like to inspire younger pupils to really enjoy music and find their voice within their instrument. For adult learners, I enjoy teaching in a more relaxed way and will cater to individual needs, preparing parts for orchestral rehearsals or just working through repertoire that interests them. I am also happy to help people who would like extra support in GCSE and A Level music.

I am a fun, friendly teacher and I focus on enjoying the music!

MA (Royal Academy of Music)
BA (Hons) 1st class - University of York

I became a scholar at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama after winning the Jack Petchey Award for 'Outstanding Achievement' in 2011. In that year, I also achieved a DipABRSM in oboe performance and went on to perform Mozart's 'Oboe Quartet' in Buckingham Palace, in the presence of Princess Anne, in 2012. I am the Founder and Principal Conductor of the Johannes Ensemble, and have been conducting for six years, starting with serenades groups in the London Schools Symphony Orchestra. I have studied with Peter Ash and am currently studying with David Corkhill. Conducting highlights for me last year were leading successful performances of Sibelius' and Brahms' violin concertos with the Johannes Ensemble. I also greatly enjoyed taking part in the Aberystwyth Conducting Course, last year, led by Toby Purser.

Over the last few years, through competing, I have won the 'Howarth Prize' for the 'Most Outstanding Reed Player' at the North London Festival, the 'Burnham Cup' for the 'Most Outstanding Woodwind Player' at Marlow Music Festival and among these several Gold Medals. Having studied Composition with Kate Romano at GSMD, it has become an important role in my musical life, and I have just finished my first choral work, 'The Rise of the Pelican', set to Psalm 102. This year, my piece for solo clarinet, 'Mechanical Birds', was premiered by David Mears (Ex-NYO, Cambridge) in West Road Concert Hall, Cambridge, in a Lunchtime Concert: 'Eight Propositions, Five Phases and Three Birdsongs'.

Orchestral playing forms a vital role in my life having played with various ensembles, including the Orion Orchestra and Les Voix Nouvelles as well as taking part in side-by-side projects with the London Philharmonic Orchestra (violin), and the BBC Symphony Orchestra (oboe).

I have a friendly approach to teaching, always being encouraging and supportive whether it be preparing for an exam of just for fun.
