I have over a decade of teaching experience, during which I've had the privilege of working with students from diverse backgrounds and skill levels. My teaching journey began during my time at Leeds Conservatoire. Since then, I've worked as a private music tutor, offering personalised lessons in bass guitar and double bass to students of all ages and abilities.

My approach is student-centered, focusing on creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel empowered to explore and develop their musical abilities. I'm dedicated to helping each student reach their full potential, whether they're just starting their musical journey or looking to refine their skills.

Because of my background in performing across diverse musical genres, I am open to teaching students what ever kind of music they love most. Whether that is Jazz, Heavy Metal, Funk, Pop, or Rock music, I feel that all music has merit. Any genre of music can be used as a vehicle towards learning more about the practice as a whole.

I generally teach students music theory through the songs that they like and are most interested in. This is because, understanding music theory is all about pattern recognition. I personally find that students learn to see and recognise the patterns in the things they are most interested in. This approach, combined with instrument specific warmup exercises, listening exercises, and learning pieces of music that push the technical skill of the student, will help any aspiring musician to get to the level they desire.
