About Sarah
- What kind of experience do you have?
My current professional performing career includes working for English Touring Opera, Glyndebourne Opera and English National Ballet.
In recent years I held a position at the University of Trinidad and Tobago as a string teacher and chamber music performer. My duties included teaching violin and viola to both children and adults; preparing and entering students for ABRSM exams and coaching the string sections of local youth and adult amateur orchestras.
I have taught privately for many years and am a peripatetic violin teacher for two primary schools in South London.
As a fully qualified teacher, I have a wealth of professional knowledge and skills that covers pedagogy through to motivation. As a professional musician, I have high expectations for all my students in terms of technique and musical development.
As a teacher in general, I'm friendly, patient and make sure my students lessons are enjoyable and fun yet purposeful and tailored to their individual needs.
- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?
Yes, I have a on-line DBS that can be checked.
