Graduate of Oxford University, Royal College of Music and San Francisco Conservatory, I am dedicated teacher with over 22 years experience: working with students of all ages, at all levels. I enjoy finding the right approach to help you learn best, fulfill your potential, and achieve what you'd like out of the lessons - be that exams, auditions or enjoyment and relaxation. - 100% pass rate for ABRSM exams - DBS checked. - NSPCC Child Protection Awareness training. - Oxfordshire County Council Safeguarding training. As a teacher I have worked for 3 different music services; San Francisco Conservatory junior college; state and private schools; independent academies. I have taught A level, GCSE and music theory; written a viola exam syllabus; adjudicated competitions; and coached chamber music and orchestras. I am active as a performing professional musician, playing with top London/UK orchestras such as Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Royal Opera House, English Chamber Orchestra; BBCNOW, BBCPhil and others; as well as playing solo and chamber music. This has taken me to the top concert halls, recording studios and arenas around the UK, Europe and further afield.
