About Thomas
I am an experienced touring and recording musician. I have performed at major global festivals and shared stages with artists including The Blockheads, Tom Meighan, The Kills, Starsailor, Sunset Sons, and The Subways. This professional experience allows me to bring real-world industry knowledge into lessons, helping students gain a broader understanding of modern music and performance.
My success as a full-time musician requires a robust understanding of music theory, composition, and stylistic study. These three principles form the foundation of my teaching approach, allowing me to tailor lessons to each student whilst offering insight into real-world practices. This includes provisions for successful recording sessions, live performances, and musicality. I am also able to provide transcriptions for your favourite songs, and have developed innovative teaching material for SEND students, visual learners, and the hard of hearing.

I am a full-time music tutor and multi-instrumentalist with over a decade's worth of teaching experience across schools, private tuition, and community settings. I have worked with students aged 2 and above at Hampton High School, St Joseph’s College, Smallberry Green Primary School, and West Ashtead Primary School, as well as teaching adults and senior learners up to the age of 80.
Creating a safe, supportive, and encouraging learning environment is at the heart of my teaching. I hold safeguarding certification through Educare and the NSPCC, ensuring students and parents can feel confident and secure throughout the learning process.
Every lesson is tailored to the individual, whether you're learning for enjoyment, working towards graded exams, developing specific techniques, or returning to music after a break. I teach the ABRSM, Trinity, Trinity Rock & Pop, and Rockschool syllabi, and I incorporate music theory naturally into lessons to strengthen understanding, musicianship, and communication.
My teaching approach is engaging, practical, and student-focused. I believe that music should be both rewarding and enjoyable, so lessons are designed to build confidence, encourage creativity, and develop effective practice habits that lead to steady, long-term progress.
Whether you're a complete beginner, an experienced musician looking to develop your skills, or someone rediscovering a passion for music, I offer professional, supportive, and enjoyable tuition tailored to your goals. I look forward to helping you progress and achieve your musical ambitions.
