I'm currently offering private music lessons on any brass instruments or music theory lessons.

I'm a British Musician currently studying my Master's Degree in Orchestral Music Performance at the Högskolan för Scen och Musik in Gothenburg. Before moving to Sweden I finished my undergrad at the Royal Academy of Music in London, and have had 5 years of experience working professionally as a musician across the UK.
I have plenty of experience teaching the French horn privately (my main instrument) to any age and I was the Brass teacher at a private school in Guildford for two years, where I taught kids playing on all brass instruments.
I would also be confident teaching music theory too, to all levels and ages.

If you have an old brass instrument lying around that you've always wanted to learn, or you used to play and want to get back into it, or you would like your child to start learning a musical instrument then please do get in touch! I will teach any age or any level.

Extra information
For instrumental lessons, you will need your own instrument. However I do currently have one spare french horn that can be borrowed, and if you desperately need to borrow another instrument, I have many musical friends and can try to accommodate.

For music theory lessons, I highly recommend that you have access to a keyboard.

I am happy to give lessons online over webcam at a reduced rate. However, I do not recommend this for absolute beginners.

About Me
I'm a British Musician currently studying my Master's Degree in Orchestral Music Performance at the Högskolan för Scen och Musik in Gothenburg, Sweden. Before moving to Sweden I lived and worked in London for 5 years.

I have plenty of experience working professionally in London having performed as an orchestral horn player in all the major London concert halls, and have also worked abroad including in France, Germany, Japan, India and now Sweden.

During this time I have also taught privately for 5 years, and at a private school in Guildford, UK for 2 years. I am now looking to start as a teacher in Sweden also.

Music is my passion, and I would love to share this with anyone of any age or skill!
Education
I first went to Wells Cathedral School, a specialist music school when I was 13. When I was 18 I moved to London to study at the Royal Academy of Music where I achieved a Bacholour's Degree in Music performance with 1st Class Honours. I now am studying a Masters degree at the Högskolan för Scen och Musik in Gothenburg.
Experience / Qualifications
I have taught privately for 5 years, and Lanesborough Preparatory school in Guildford, UK for 2 years. Here I taught Horn, trumpet, trombone, tuba and took Brass Ensemble classes for children between the ages of 7 and 13.

Welcome! :)

What does music mean to you? For me, music is magic. It makes you feel, it transports you to different worlds, and it brings out emotions words cannot describe.

I’ve been playing since I was six, and now my greatest joy is not only sharing my own music but also helping you express yourself through this beautiful art form. In our lessons, I’ll guide you through solid technical foundations, practical tips and tricks, and the secrets of artistry that bring music to life.

I teach all levels, from beginners just starting out to advanced students preparing for exams, auditions, or performances.

My musical journey has taken me from Singapore to the USA, UK, and Sweden, with studies at Singapore’s School of the Arts, Chetham’s School of Music in Manchester, Meadowmount School of Music (USA), the Royal College of Music in London, and the Academy of Music and Drama at the University of Gothenburg. Along the way, I have been fortunate to learn from renowned violinists including Professor Itzhak Rashkovsky, Yumi Sasaki, Chan Yoong Han, Sally Thomas, Marja Inkinen Engström, and Øyvor Volle.

I hold two violin performance diplomas (LTCL and LRSM), a distinction in ABRSM Grade 8 piano performance, and was awarded the top Ash Music Scholarship at Imperial College London, where I studied violin under Professor Rashkovsky. During my time there, I won the Imperial College Symphony Orchestra Concerto Competition, performing Prokofiev’s Second Violin Concerto in Helsinki, London, and Southampton. I have also given solo recitals and performed extensively in chamber ensembles, with concerts ranging from Sibelius’ house in Finland to venues across the UK.

My deepest passion is chamber music, and one of my main motivations as a teacher is to make classical music enjoyable and approachable. I want to help break away from the stereotype that it is grand, pretentious, or boring. In an age of digitalisation and AI, I believe strongly in sharing the human side of music making. You know those moments when time seems to stop, the air turns still, you get goosebumps, or feel transported into another world? That is the magic of music, and I would love to help you become the magician. ✨

If you are have questions, or would like to book a lesson (piano and/or violin, up to you!), please feel free to reach out. I look forward to working with you! :)
