Personal Message: I am a final year Trumpet student at the RNCM in Manchester. I am enthusiastic and passionate about all aspects and genres of music. Teaching keen students is both fulfilling and rewarding.
Which subject(s) do you teach?: The fields in which I specialize are: Teaching brass instruments, singing, saxophone and music theory. I also have excellent teaching skills in the areas of conducting, and Jazz, the theory behind it, playing it, and Improvisation. Being a Trumpeter I give advanced tuition in Trumpet playing if asked. I always structure my teaching to the specific person, to optimise the teaching experience for everyone. I very much enjoy teaching, as it gives me the opportunity to pass on my knowledge and enthusiasm to anyone who loves music and is willing to learn.
Tell me about your qualifications.: I have 12 GCSE's, 4 A levels, BTEC in public services, various grade achievements on instruments. I am currently studying for a BMus(Hons) at the RNCM in Music and Performance on trumpet.
What kind of experience do you have?: I have taught individually and in groups for several years and have a great deal of experience in playing in chamber groups, large ensembles, orchestras, and as a soloist. I perform regularly as a soloist and chamber musician around the UK, and now having spent a year in Norway, broadening my performing aspects to Europe and Scandinavia. Recently I was invited to perform at the RNCM festival of Brass as the guest Trumpet Soloist.
How much do you charge?: I charge £20 an hour, but I give half hour lessons with beginners (and those who only want a half hour lesson) at £10. If I have to travel to the student's house, there will be an additional fee of up to £5 for travel expenses.
Where do you teach?: I normally teach at my apartment in Salford Quays, Manchester, alternatively I am able to drive to the student if necessary
When are you available?: My timetable is very flexible as I teach alongside my professional playing and studies, so it would be easy to arrange times which suit the student best. I am also available during term time and school holidays.
Which ages and levels do you teach?: I teach all ages, from complete beginner to advanced.
Do you have an up-to-date CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) disclosure certificate?: I have a CRB enhanced disclosure certificate
Describe your arrangements for online tutoring.: The student and I will organise lesson times via E-Mail to suit the student best. It is best if the webcam is set up in an open, spacious room, and that external noise is reduced to a minimum. Many people use SKYPE - But I find in my experience that if you set up a GOOGLE MAIL (G-MAIL) Account - They have a built in video service called GOOGLE TALK - Which has a lot fewer bugs and faults in it, and is a lot more reliable - less lag, and a lot clearer picture quality.
Do you belong to any professional organisations?: I am a member of the International Trumpet Guild.
Where and with whom did you train?: Gareth Small - Principal Trumpet of the Hallé Orchestra
John Miller - Head of Brass at RNCM
Jan Fredrik Christiansen - Principal Trumpet of the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra
Ole Edvard Antonsen - World famous international Trumpet soloist
Tracey Redfern - Principal Trumpet of Manchester Camerata (Busiest Freelance Trumpet Player in the UK)
Do you have a personal message for students?: It's all about having fun - so whether you're starting from scratch, or re-kindling a childhood passion, it's always worth it. Music is a language, and learning to speak it can be one of the most valuable, enhancing experiences you could ever do in your life.
