Patient, enthusiastic, and experienced instrumental (woodwind) tutor. ABOUT OLIVIA She is a freelance woodwind musician and teacher, after initial training as a classical oboist in Croatia, she completed her education at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in Glasgow. She has extensive music teaching experience both privately and in schools with woodwinds teaching in 1-to-1b and group settings, as well as conducting bands, and choirs. She plays and teaches oboe, cor anglais, flute, clarinet, bassoon, recorder, and saxophone, and has performed both as a soloist and with a variety of orchestras, chamber groups, and musical theatre bands in the UK and across Eastern and Central Europe, and has used improvisation to create short soundtracks for animations and documentaries. TEACHING Using tailored approaches to best meet the needs and ambitions of her students. Her teaching toolkit includes an accessible fun repertoire alongside more formal pieces, exercises to develop breathing techniques, enhance your technical ease and enhance sight-reading skills, and improvisation as a method to build self-confidence and creativity as a performer. She is qualified to teach music in English and Croatian (as she is bilingual) and can teach all levels, including exam preparation. YOUR FIRST LESSON During your first lesson, you will first have a quick discussion about your musical background, choice of instrument, and your musical goals. If you are a beginner, you will then learn how to set up and care for your instrument, mouthpiece, and reed. Then make sounds on your mouthpiece/reed and work on tounging, breathing, posture, and rhythm using your mouthpiece/reed, and play with the full instrument. If you already have knowledge of the instrument you will work on various techniques and exercises using sight reading, memory, improvisation, and a piece you have brought with you or she will provide for you if you have nothing prepared. You will leave your lesson with a clear understanding of your instrument and practice goals for your musical ambitions and aspirations. If you have any questions, please feel free to get in touch with Olivia.

Trusted teacher: Hi! I'm an experienced clarinettist and teacher with a first-class honours degree from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama where I won the college's concerto and chamber music competitions. I also achieved A* and A grades in GCSE and A-Level Music respectively. - I have recently started my master's degree as a dual scholar at the Royal College of Music in London. - I have a full enhanced DBS certificate which can be supplied upon request. - I teach Mon-Wed, often afternoons/evenings but am fairly flexible (and ask the same of my students due to my hectic schedule!) - I am a relaxed, experienced, enthusiastic and patient teacher and try to make each lesson different, fun and enjoyable! -I would be happy to help you to learn music as a complete beginner or strengthen your abilities as an advanced player as a practice partner or a primary tutor. - I like to focus on building a solid foundation of playing with my students, which will help them excel in their musical lives. - I am a heavy believer that constant reassurance and appraisal is crucial in the early stages of learning any instrument, alongside fun and memorable exercises and games. - I have experience teaching to school-age children through outreach visits in Cardiff and London, alongside volunteering at RWCMD juniors department and working with RCM Sparks. - I love teaching and sharing my passion for music. I believe if you have the right motivation, age does not matter at all - it's never too late to learn! - I am able to teach through ABRSM grades and other kinds of qualifications or if you're just wanting to do it for fun! I am also able to teach music theory in tandem or as a primary tutor. - I teach in RCM in South Kensington or at my flat in Shepherds Bush if necessary. I also offer online lessons at a reduced rate. - Lessons can be 30, 45 or 60 minutes. Don’t hesitate to message me about any queries, look forward to meeting you!
