Maths is an extremely complex subject with a lot of things to understand. I want to be able to help people improve their skills with this subject. In a session, I would typically work through a task that the student struggles with to help them build on it and try to understand it in a different way. Following this, I would then set a small homework to establish these ideas. Due to being a student myself, I understand the difficulties that young people face in a classroom and so am able to find alternative approaches which may be more suitable to the individual.

The world of music theory and notation can seem daunting and complex for the uninitiated, but with a little bit of coaching, anyone can learn to speak the language of composition. In this class, I will teach students how to notate their musical ideas, as well as to stretch and develop them into fully fledged pieces. Suitable for any level of ability, I can introduce the basics, help with GCSE and A-Level students, or assist anyone who is interested in composition as an independent project. With me, you will learn about a variety of composers and their music from J.S. Bach to Morton Feldman and their approaches to composition. This will do nothing but enrich your own work and inspire your creativity.
