How It Works

Why learn with me

Whether you are picking up an instrument for the first time or want to try your hand at jazz improvisation, we will focus on what you actually want to learn. My lessons are completely hands-on and relaxed, with no rigid structures—just practical steps to help you build confidence and enjoy making music

Where: My home studio in Churchdown.
When: Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 12:30 pm to 7:30 pm.
Cost: £18 for 30 minutes or £36 for an hour

I’ve been teaching and performing for many years, so I know that the best way to learn is with a patient, friendly guide. There is no pressure here. I provide a supportive space where you can ask plenty of questions, work at your own pace, and find your own musical voice.
