I teach theory for all grades, specialising in ABRSM theory.
I have access to many past papers. I have also created exercises to help my students. When a students stuggle with an exercise, I create exercises to help master it. Theory should be easy! I aim to have students take Grade 5 theory in 2 terms.

About Me
I am a friendly teacher, who will help you achieve your desired goal for music theory.
I have been teaching live for 15 years, and online for 8 years. As long as your internet connection is good, skype can be almost as good as being in the same room.

I have studied with many of the leading teachers in Europe and the USA. I started my education at Junior Department of the Royal Academy of Music (London), where I studied with James Sleigh for five years. I was a member of the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain, and the National Youth Strings Academy. I the studied my Bachelor of Music at the Royal College of Music (London), where I studied with Andriy Viytovych. I have a Masters of Music from Trinity Laban College of Music and Dance (London), studying under Roger Chase, and a Masters in Fine Art from Gothenburg University (Sweden) with Øvyor Volle (Vertavo Quartet). I also studied in the USA at the Manhattan School of Music, New York, and Chicago College of Performing Arts.

I work as a professional viola player across the UK and Scandinavia, with such orchestras as Swedish Radio Orchestra, Stockholm Philharmonic, Bergen, Norwegian Radio, Gothenburg Symphony, Norrkoping Symphony, Jonkoping Sinfonietta, Aarhus Symphony, and English National Ballet Philharmonic. I am also a music arranger and transcriber.

I can give lessons once or twice a week. Please note that twice a week does allow for fast progression.
Lessons can be at my home in Stockholm, or online.
Although I live in Sweden, I only teach in English.

Unlock your creative potential and elevate your music-making skills with tailored, 1-on-1 tutoring sessions. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced musician, I offer in-depth tuition across multiple aspects of music composition, including instrumental composition, digital production, and songwriting. I will not teach you to write music in a one-size-fits-all approach. Composition is an incredibly personal subject, and my goal is to give each pupil the tools and understanding to develop their own style and make informed choices when writing their music.

What I Offer:

Instrumental Composition: Develop your ability to compose for any ensemble, from solo instruments to full orchestration. Learn how to create compelling melodies, harmonies, and textures that bring your music to life.

Digital Music Production: Dive into the world of digital music production, where you'll learn how to create professional-sounding tracks using the latest software tools. From beat-making to full arrangements, I'll guide you through the process step-by-step.

Songwriting: Whether you're writing for yourself or for others, I’ll help you craft powerful lyrics, memorable hooks, and dynamic song structures that resonate with listeners. Learn to bring your emotions and ideas to life through music.

Why Choose My Tutoring?

Tailored Lessons: Each session is customized to fit your personal goals, musical interests, and current skill level.

Flexible Learning: Learn at your own pace with no pressure, whether you prefer to focus on a specific genre, technique, or aspect of composition.

Practical Guidance: Receive actionable feedback and hands-on advice that you can immediately apply to your projects.

Let me help you refine your musical voice, master the tools of the trade, and create music that moves both you and your audience.
