I have been compelled and motivated to become a teacher as a result of having been inspired to do so by the tuition that I received. The support and encouragement of both the teacher and parents are so important when learning a musical instrument that as a teacher I seek to create an open, enjoyable and productive relationship with my pupils. Studying an instrument can be both a hugely rewarding and fun experience for pupil and teacher alike and ultimately this is why I became a teacher.
