Paul taught me recorder, clarinet, and choral singing between the ages of 7 and 13, and I began learning each of these instruments with him. During his teaching, I achieved merits or distinctions in ABRSM exams, and later went on to reach Grade 8 in clarinet. Paul is highly skilled at these instruments and also encouraged me to perform, both in groups and with piano accompaniment. I feel very fortunate to have had Paul as a teacher. His care for both music and his pupils is evident in his teaching style. He quickly notices when something isn’t quite right and explains things patiently and clearly. I would happily recommend him to anyone starting (or looking to progress in) their musical journey, especially children.

Paul is a very passionate, dedicated teacher, with a gift for imparting knowledge and confidence in a gentle, non-confrontational manner. He is patient and humorous and truly loves people and his subject. I would not hesitate to recommend him as a tutor.

Paul responds:
Thank you so much, Sarah, for your review and recommendation. Lucy is an exceptional musician, coureous, dedicated and extremely hardworking, which ensured that teaching her clarinet and recorder was nothing other than a delight.

Paul created a warm atmosphere which helped me develop musically. He was patient and kind when I was tough on myself for not getting things right which allowed me to keep working on my technique and ultimately my love of music. When I first met Paul I couldn’t place a full piece of music confidently and now I can. I have the tools to play clarinet fluently and the patience to trust myself.

Paul responds:
Thank you so much for your lovely review, Taylor. I am thrilled by how far you developed as a clarinettist and musician during your time with me, and I am honoured to have helped instill and nurture your love of music.
