Trombone, Piano, Cello, Improvisation and Music Theory Lessons

From 49.89 € /h

I give instrumental lessons in trombone, piano, cello and music theory lessons. I aim to provide a thorough grounding in fundamental technique, whilst allowing the student to explore the music that they are interested in. I can help pupils achieve grades but I do not focus extensively on moving through grades, in favour of exploring a broader range of music and styles.

About Me

I’m a trombonist, cellist, pianist and composer/arranger currently living in London. I began learning music when I was five, and began to study cello, piano and trombone over the following three years. I gained a diverse set of musical experiences growing up, from playing principle trombone with the National Children’s Orchestra to reaching the semi-final of the BBC Young Jazz Musician Award in 2016 and 2018. In 2020 I graduated from Cambridge with a first-class degree in Music and I am currently studying towards an MA in jazz trombone at the Royal Academy of Music. With experience in both classical and jazz spheres I have a great interest in a broad range of music and sharing it with others. I also regularly volunteer at CYE, a multi-activity youth centre on the south coast where I enjoy running crazy summer camps!

I believe that music is first and foremost something to be enjoyed, hence I aim to make lessons engaging, the instrument exciting and facilitate students to explore the music that they are interested in. Lessons involve a strong grounding in proper technique on the instrument, an exposure to a broad range of techniques and styles and an individually nuanced attention to repertoire. My broad experience in jazz and improvisation is an aspect that I like to bring into teaching, whether that is a desired main focus or simply something different and extra.

All ages are welcome to study with me. I will create a personalised practice planner that is full of new, unexplored and exciting content. Depending what you would like to learn or improve in certain areas. I am experienced in teaching topics such as styles, covering metal, rock, funk, hip-hop, jazz, hand and foot technique, double bass playing, independence, ergonomic approach towards set-up, posture, creative sticking patterns and countless other concepts.

With carefully picked and personalised practice planners as well as reachable goals, my students are able to see significant results in short periods of time. I see teaching as a way to translate complex and overlooked topics in the most easily understandable and applicable ways so students can feel confident, motivated and eager when learning with me.

Pablo is an experienced, award-winner music teacher, performer and composer based in London. He has earned a diploma in Contemporary Music from Newpark Music Centre, furthered his studies at the Royal Irish Academy of Music, and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, where he earned a Bachelor's Degree with honours of the first class in composition, and is currently completing a Masters Degree at the Royal Academy of Music.

Whether you are studying for a music test, taking the grade exams for piano, or music theory, writing and recording your own music, or just want to play for fun, he can help you achieve your goals through his holistic approach to music, covering all that is relevant for you to succeed.

Pablo has been tutoring piano, music theory and composition both in schools and privately since 2016 in Ireland and Scotland, having experience teaching children and adults as they prepare for the ABRSM, Trinity, School of Rock and RIAM theory and piano performance exams across all grades, although he does not confine his teaching solely to the content of the exams and his students often find that preparing for them is a natural consequence of their studies. He has extensive experience as a music tutor, composer, accompanist and director having worked at Gordonstoun School as a musician in residence, and at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland as a musicianship tutor.

The lessons encompass a range of diverse methodologies and learning outcomes, always tailored to the specific pupil's needs. You will work together to build an appropriate path to your musical development, always considering performance as an important part of it. As an example, lessons could focus on performing Classical, Pop, Film, or Jazz music, or have a blended approach to reportoire covering a range of styles. They could also be more directed towards musicianship and theory, while he can offer guidance on composition and songwriting. For the younger pupils, he uses methods that will effectively elicit their best results by making the lessons enjoyable and fun, while nurturing their independent study habits.

Pablo has a high level of proficiency on music notation and production softwares such as Finale, Sibelius, Dorico, Cubase, and protools and he often uses them as part of his teaching, as well as offering specific advice on learning to navigate them.

As an educator, Fiachra is focused always on finding the way of making music which suits each of his students best, with a confident and comfortable way of working with the instrument (which then transfers into the rest of life). He has been praised for his patient and compassionate approach, and an openness and freedom which he shares in his performance.

When teaching young children, he makes use of imaginative imagery and games to help explain concepts in a way that children can understand. He has also been praised for his ability to listen and understand the needs of his students, helping them make progress in a rewarding way.

His methodology is tailored to each individual student, with a focus on providing enjoyment of the individual lessons as much as possible. He is understanding in giving constructive feedback and understandsi how important it is to foster a healthy self-image and self-story in all of his students.

Fiachra teaches at every level, and is always supportive of different learning approaches for each persons unique needs, and shows great awareness and understanding in particular of students with SpLDs.

After teaching at top Private and State schools in the UK, I've just expanded my teaching business with 8 new slots for online piano students.

My teaching methods have proven effective with all age groups, from ages 6 and upwards. I've also spend significant time teaching adults and those with special needs.

Lessons focus on the needs of the student individually, and can be tailored to match any goal. Most students do tend to focus on the standard ABRSM exam route. But, I've extensively taught Rock, Pop, Jazz and musical Theatre to especially interested students.

Please do reach out with any questions!

Music theory (and/or music composition) lessons for students of all ages and abilities.

Whether you're hoping to pass a music theory exam, or you need help with the composition or listening side of GCSE or A-Level Music, or if you're simply looking to learn some music theory to help with your playing, I can help you.

I have 13 years' experience teaching music theory and composition. I'm a pianist and composer, with a thorough understanding of all instruments. I can cater the lessons uniquely to your level and needs, whether you're an absolute beginner or you're an experienced musician looking to deepen your knowledge of music theory. I cover all sorts of styles, including Classical, Jazz and Pop/Rock.

My lessons are friendly and encouraging, using audio examples and helpful diagrams. My students feel better equipped to play music and reach their goals as a result.

I have been teaching music and guitar for decades, privately and in music schools, and my approach starts with the student and his needs. In my experience those needs, together with goals and expectations, change with time and I can help my students determine what they want to achieve and how to best get there. I also find that there isn’t one way that works for everybody and I enjoy creating space for students to explore what music and the instrument mean for them.
Please be aware that I am a working musician and in order to support my student while I do the profession, a degree of flexibility on times and schedule might be needed

Music composition is a powerful tool for expressing inner voice and individuality, discovering new music worlds, and boosting creativity.

With a student, we will start by forming intonations and rhythms and building beautiful musical landscapes using all opportunities for any musical instrument.
