About Alice
- What kind of experience do you have?
I have been playing for 20 years and passed my diploma in 2000. I have been teaching privately for a decade with 100% pass rate for classical, jazz and theory exams for ABRSM board exclusively (although I am familiar with most syllabuses). I have taught for the Music for Schools Foundation around Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire, as well as at private schools and music schools.
- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?
Yes. as from Jan 2012
- Where and with whom did you train?
I trained under Alistair Parnell in Nottingham, along with his lovely wife Sarah - who took me to diploma level. I studied B/Mus at The University of Southampton. I attended Music School for 5 years before teaching there myself. I also attended the 11th session county workshop and did many performances.
- Do you belong to any professional organisations?
n/a.
- Tell me about some of your current students.
I Have a very talanted 14 year old boy who just passed his Grade 5 Jazz (which is impressive at his age) on the Saxophone, who plays the Saxophone in the Nottingham Youth Jazz Orchestra, as well as another inspiring teenager who passed her grade 7 flute with a merit last term, and is now working towards grade 8. I have a pupil who is working towards her ATCL diploma on the flute too. I have so many wonderful, characteristic individuals.

I try to encourage all my pupils to work towards their ABRSM exams.

Timed sessions offering advice and problem solving, exercises for technique and theory questions given and marked. 24 hours advice to all enquiries. Web meetings via webcam/messenger.
- Do you have a personal message for students?
Don't be shy. Music is a very expressive way of showing emotion through sound...It can really help boost self esteem and widen your social circle as it opens so many doors to music groups, ensembles etc. I consider myself to be very friendly, personable and particularly approachable and try to encourage the best possible performances out of all my pupils. also - don't delay. If you want to start lessons and learn to play an instrument. Call me and I will try my best to fit you in as soon as I can, you don't need an instrument, books, experience...anything except the willingness to learn.
