About Sean
A teacher of 10 yrs experience, I have taught students across all ages and abilities: small children who love music; young teenagers and talented university students; and adults starting out for the first time! I have been playing the trumpet since I was 6 yrs old, the piano since 10. I have received scholarships from Wells Cathedral School, Royal Welsh School of Music and Drama, King's College London and University of Oxford. I have been taught by some of the best teachers in the U.K. from leading orchestras and conservatoires including RAM, RCM and Guildhall. I have performed professionally, playing at the Barbican, Wigmore Hall and the Royal Albert Hall in classical orchestras and big bands. I have also worked semi-pro as a conductor for 6 years with amateur orchestras and semi-pro opera companies in London.

I believe in giving you a skill for life. Lessons will be varied and flexible, built to engage you imaginatively and musically. Goals will be set by you, and 'music' is always at the centre of lessons! As someone who technically struggled with their instrument as a teenager, you can expect to have an empathetic and understanding teacher responsive to your individual needs. I understand personally that there is no 'one size fits all' approach to teaching! For those who wish to pass graded exams, we will work on building a solid technical foundation and build basic musicianship skills. For those who wish to play casually or just your favourite works, we will work on what you need technically and musically with those pieces always in mind. For advanced players, I can work directly on the nuances of the instrument and musicianship: musical analysis, approaches to genres, advanced technical skills and studies, and performance psychology. First lesson is always free, to make sure I'm the 'right' teacher for you :)

Perfect! I really enjoyed my lessons with Sean. As someone wanting to get back into playing after a few years out, he was friendly, patient and encouraging and I really looked forward to my lessons each week.
Perfect! William makes the lessons fun and interactive, and is an excellent teacher, I highly recommend him.

Sean is a highly professional tutor and an inspiring trumpet teacher with experience teaching beginners to Grade 8+. He has a wealth of musical experience, which makes his lessons fun and engaging.
Sean is an enthusiastic and highly-skilled musician who instills his passion for music-making in those he teaches. I have seen how his tailored approach gets the best out of every student, whilst ensuring that lessons are a rewarding experience. I would highly recommend him for both practical and theory-based tuition!
Sean is an excellent teacher and musician. He is deeply passionate about the trumpet and that comes across in his lessons. I have learnt so much from him and really enjoy his tuition. Highly recommended!
Sean is a great trumpeter and a fantastic teacher. His explanations of different techniques helped me progress very quickly. In addition to playing the trumpet, Sean has a deep knowledge of all different styles of music from his studies. This makes the lessons doubly interesting as he provided the musical and historical context to all the pieces we learned. I would recommend Sean to anyone interested in learning the trumpet and learning more about music in general.

In-person lessons for the trumpet are preferable (due to the nature of the instrument), and travel costs are negotiable depending on distance of travel :) For music theory or essay writing skills, I'm more than happy to teach online.
