Teaching Concept My classes are designed to help you achieve two things; effective communication on the saxophone and making sure you're having fun! The later is very important as I have found over the years that this is an element that is often missing from the performance of aspiring saxophone students. They get so caught up in the technique and theory that they lose sight of why they picked up the instrument in the first place; to communicate. This is why I have decided to create a curriculum designed to teach mature students the fundamentals through pop music! How Does It Work As my class title suggests, the goal is to teach you basic technique, rudimentary theory, ear training, and a little bit of reading in just 6 short months. This will empower you to use your ears to learn the music you desire to play and, eventually, will be the foundation for improvisation. Every unit, I send my students a backing track of a popular song and we break it down, analyze the skills needed to learn it, and develop your technique and theory this way. You can be assured that you will always know WHY you are learning a concept! Next, the student records himself performing the song and sends me the recordings for constructive criticism. I then use this information to develop your next lesson plan. You'll be amazed at how quickly you improve learning this way! Lastly, I am always available to answer any of your questions throughout the week. You'll never feel alone in this process. If this is all of interest to you I hope you will seriously consider studying with me. I promise it will be quite an adventure!
Saxophone · Music theory lessons
In addition to my busy playing career, I offer individual lessons on Saxophone, Clarinet and Flute, and in Music Theory in North Essex, East Hertfordshire, East London or online. I am also able to offer tutoring for GCSE and A-level Music and Music Technology courses for individuals or small groups. ​ My fundamental belief with regard to music education is that it should be a fun, enjoyable and rewarding experience. With this aim in mind, I strive to develop an approach tailored towards each student, taking account of their experience level, their personal musical goals and their own musical interests and tastes. I am equally at home teaching Jazz, Pop, Soul or the ever-expanding repertoire of classical saxophone music. I have a wealth of experience in music education, teaching adults and young people in a wide variety of settings and contexts. In addition to having been an instrumental tutor since 1999: I have a Post Graduate Certificate in Education and have spent several years as a head of music in state secondary schools and at a 6th Form College; have taught and examined A-level courses in Music and Music Technology; have directed various ensembles within educational establishments and have devised and delivered workshops with a focus upon jazz and improvisation. My students have a 100% pass rate in their ABRSM practical and theory exams, with many attaining Merit and Distinction passes (including at grade 8). ​ I have an advanced CRB check and am happy to provide testimonials upon request.
