As a teacher, I believe in making sure that each of my lessons is best suited to the student I am teaching. As a brass player, I am always working on my own technique and trying new forms of practice to improve my own playing and so I understand what I am teaching. I received a BMus Jazz Hons from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire in 2021. I spent 4 years at the conservatoire bettering myself as a performer but also as a teacher. I studied all pedagogy modules offered to me on my course and I also taught outside of my course. I can teach all ages and all levels. In our first lesson, I would assess what level the student is at and then angle my teaching to best fit that student. I teach 1-hour lessons or half an hour lessons depending on the student's age or what they request.
