PENINSULA MUSIC CO-OPERATIVE LIMITED

BA (Hons) Music – First Class | MMus Performance | Trinity Certificate for Music Educators

​

I am an experienced and enthusiastic music tutor specialising in clarinet, saxophone, flute, and music theory.

​

Holding a First Class Honours degree in Music, and a Master’s degree in Performance from the University of LIverpool, I combine academic excellence with a wealth of practical teaching experience. I have also completed the Trinity Certificate for Music Educators (CME) which is a Level 4 qualification focussed on teaching and learning styles in music education, including practical assessment, along with other CPD courses such as Autism Awareness.

​

I have worked extensively in schools over the past several years; teaching individual students, small groups, and also whole-class projects in clarinet, JSax , and ukulele.  

​

I have experience in conducting youth ensembles, and currently lead a beginner band, arranging tailored music to suit the varied needs and abilities of young musicians; helping them to grow in confidence and skill - even those who join knowing only how to play a handful of notes!

I have also conducted intermediate/senior youth ensembles, and currently play drum kit and percussion whilst supporting a youth concert band.

​

I am a clarinettist with the Wirral Symphony Orchestra and have previously played with ensembles such as the Liverpool Mozart Orchestra, Chester Philharmonic Orchestra, and The Wirral Orchestra. I have also delivered solo performances, showcasing my versatility and musicianship across a wide range of repertoire.

​

In my spare time, I am  involved with a local community samba drumming group, and we have this summer taken some of our young people to Oslo to perform as a street band in Mela Festivalen.

​

I am passionate about all aspects of music, and believe that everyone can benefit from music, especially with the right support.
