About Hilary
I have recently taken early retirement from teaching in schools and am offering tuition in GCSE and A Level music as this was always the part of the job that I enjoyed the most. I can help with all aspects of the course - composition, analysing set works, improving music theory, understanding the musical elements, essay writing and much more. If there are other aspects of the course you need help with, please get in touch with any questions.

I have a flexible approach to teaching and always base my lessons on the student's prior achievements and build on those. I will tailor my lessons to the student's needs and aspirations, whether aiming for a particular grade at GCSE or A Level, improving exam technique or refining coursework. I have taught in secondary schools (both comprehensive and grammar schools) for over 25 years and helped many students achieve high grades in their music exams. I can teach any exam board, but I am particularly familiar with the Edexcel exam board. I work for Edexcel as a moderator and examiner and therefore have knowledge of requirements directly from the exam board. In addition to GCSE and A Level music, I offer tuition in music theory at all levels.
