Hello, My name is Max and I teach the Saxophone and Clarinet. If you want to learn either instrument with a relaxed and patient teacher don't hesitate to contact me. As a performer I have played at Ronnie Scotts and The Dorchester Hotel.

I teach the Saxophone, Clarinet and musical theory. I have extensive knowledge of teaching jazz, classical, latin and pop music. I can cater for students who are eager to take music theory exams. If required I will also include piano tuition.
- Tell me about your qualifications.
I have a BMUS(Hons) Music performance degree from Trinity College of Music in Greenwich. I have a B in Music A level and an A in GCSE. I also obtained a distinction for my Grade 5 Theory exam.
- How much do you charge?
I offer a free first lesson, after which each lesson is £40 per hour. This is negotiable depending on the pupil. If i have to travel to a pupils house £5 will be added to the fee for the lesson. I will happily teach more than one person at once and there will be a discount included.
- Where do you teach?
I teach at my own home but I will happily travel to pupils' houses. I live in Clapham South, West London. I also have a studio in the Old Street area so I can additionally teach from there.

I am available every day of the week including weekends. I am available to teach between 9.00am - 9.00pm. I usually stay around London during the summer holidays and very close to Christmas.

I teach pupils of all ages. I have experience teaching students which are post grade 8 standard. Several of my students started from never playing the saxophone. Within a few months I have raised them to a grade 2 standard. Their knowledge of playing piano and music theory has greatly increased too.

I prepare my students for all associated board exams. Currently i have two students preparing for grade 1. I also have a student who I am preparing for various performances in London. I try to encourage my students to perform as often as possible.
- Do you have a personal message for students?
I am incredibly passionate about teaching music and would like to pass that passion on to you. If you want to have fun learning to Saxophone or Clarinet don't hesitate to contact me. Thanks
