About

⭐⭐⭐LESSONFACE TEACHER OF THE YEAR 2023 RECORDER⭐⭐⭐Hi there! I'm a professional musician and qualified music teacher with 10 years of teaching experience and 15 years of performing experience. I've had the pleasure of teaching students aged 5 to 60, from eager beginners to seasoned musicians. Whether you're playing for fun and relaxation or gearing up for exams, I bring excitement and passion to every lesson!

I hold a music degree, a Postgraduate Certificate in Education, and an Honors in Education focused on Music Education. Teaching and performing are my passions, and I take pride in helping students achieve their musical goals.

If you're interested in learning the saxophone, clarinet, recorder, keyboard, or music theory, I'd love to be part of your musical journey!

As a friendly and approachable teacher, I aim to help my students achieve their goals. My lessons strike a balance between fun and technicality, fostering confidence in my students both in their playing and in themselves. Whether you're looking to play for fun and relaxation after a stressful day or aiming for excellence in exams, I'll help you find joy and fulfillment along the way.

Currently, I hold a music teacher position at a secondary school and have previously taught at prep schools, high schools, music academies, and private music schools. I also offer one-on-one private lessons. Additionally, I have conducted award-winning bands and served as a judge at competitions.

I have taught over 200 students, forming long-lasting relationships and helping them reach their personal goals. My students have achieved distinctions in Practical Music Examinations (ABRSM, Trinity College London).

- Bachelor of Music from the University of Cape Town - Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) from the University of Cape Town - Bachelor of Education Honours from the University of Cape Town
