“Music for me is the essence of everything that I am, it is what has supported me through many aspects of my life thus is far. From my experience as a teacher over the years I have seen profound changes in children as well as adults. It has the power to expand us emotionally, mentally as well as intellectually allowing us to become the very best version of ourselves. Teaching to me is more than just the music itself, its giving the students the key to creativity and self-expression through the understanding of music from a theory point of view as well as practical.

“Teaching instrumental music is a way to pass down and share the experience, passion and creativity that I have cultivated over years of study and performance. I always hope to empower my students with the skills and enthusiasm to become independent learners and role models, as they will become the next generation of teachers and performers.”

“Listening to and playing music is a highly rewarding activity. As a music teacher, my goal is to pass on the joy that music brings to people’s day to day lives. I have experienced this joy countless times myself and it is why I love to teach. I seek to inspire the children so that they become enthusiastic about all that music entails. It is a privilege for me to see them learn and grow and progress, so they can share this joy with those around them. Whether a student plays piano, or sings, or plays the violin, it always brings delight to those who listen; it is a gift to others.”

“I became a music teacher due to my love and passion for the industry and to have the ability to teach everything I have learnt to my students in the best way possible.

I love watching their creativity flourish.”

“Music for me has the power to change lives. It’s something that is always there when we need it. It’s able to communicate things that we haven’t found words for yet – the language is universal. Being able to use my knowledge of music and the industry to help students find their passion is something I love doing. Whether it be guitar or drums, watching my students grow into confident performers is truly humbling.”
