As with my work as a performer, I can draw on a wide range of skills and experience to in various fields of tuition and education.  I have devised and co-led a number of workshops, taking brass instruments and chamber music into schools from South London to South Wales, at both primary and secondary levels (Key Stages 2, 3 and 4).  As part of the BBC's 'Endangered Species' scheme, and more recently with the government's Wider Opportunities programme, I have introduced the experience of playing a brass instrument to pupils across a similar age-range.  I have played an active role in Gloucestershire Music's Wider Opportunities programme (2008-2010) and in the London Borough of Newham's 'Every Child a Musician' scheme from 2011.

I offer tuition for learners of all ages in the following disciplines, at the levels shown:

-     Trombone (including bass trombone), baritone/euphonium (Beginner - Advanced)

-     Other brass instruments by arrangement (Beginner - Intermediate)

-     Piano (Beginner - Intermediate)

-     Music Theory & Practical Musicianship (Beginner - Advanced)

-     Conducting (Beginner - Advanced)

-     Composition & Orchestration (Beginner - Advanced)

I am also able to offer workshops and lecture-recitals, as well as illustrated talks and seminars on various topics; see the writings page for examples.

Please contact me with any enquiries; I will be happy to supply further information (including references &c.) on request.
