Personal Message: I am a freelance trumpet player and teacher based in Manchester and am able to teach people of all ages and abilities.
Which subject(s) do you teach?: I can teach the trumpet and cornet from beginners to advanced levels. Although I am mainly a trumpeter I have grade 8 viola so I am able to teach viola up to a grade 5 standard.

I am currently in my fourth year studying for a BMus(Hons) at the RNCM in Music and Performance on trumpet.
What kind of experience do you have?: I have experience in all kinds of teaching, including conducting small brass ensembles, orchestral sections and string quartets. I have also taught on a one to one basis.

As a performer I have experience at working in chamber groups and orchestras and have performed as a soloist with amateur orchestras across the country. I also had experience at working with pop bands and artists such as 'The Ting Tings' and X factor winner Alexandra Burke.

How much do you charge?: I charge £20 an hour and £10 for half an hour. I am able to travel but there would be a small extra charge.
Where do you teach?: I teach mainly at my house in Withington in South Manchester but am able to travel a 20 mile radius if a pupil wishes to be taught at their home.
When are you available?: My timetable is very flexible so it would be easy to arrange times to suit the pupil.
