Qualified, Experienced Music Teacher
Positive, supportive, engaging lessons
Piano for Pleasure or Performance
– Starting from age 7 and up
– Adult students, beginners and up
I offer private piano tuition, specialising in teaching beginners and early years of learning, using a broad range of materials to suit each student individually. I guide my students to develop musical foundations and skills so they can learn to play music they love, whether for performance, exams, or for pleasure. I enjoy promoting a love of music in a positive and engaging environment, allowing students to become confident and independent learners.
Professional Musical Background
As a dedicated teacher and performer for over 25 years, my experience includes teaching at primary, secondary and tertiary levels. I have taught individual lessons and held Performance Preparation workshops as a guest lecturer for UWA, ECU (WAAPA), ANU, Australian Youth Orchestra and the West Australian Youth Orchestra.
As a professional musician, I have given many recitals and performed bassoon with numerous professional Australasian orchestras, including many years as a member of the West Australian Symphony Orchestra.
