My lessons are focussed on finding the joy of music- a goal that I have myself which I love to pass on to my students.
I welcome students of all ages and abilities. Whatever your aim, we can work together to tailor a unique method that suits you and allows you to feel confident with the instrument.
I have over a decade of experience teaching in a variety of settings so I have a method to suit everyone, whether you want to play your very first note or are ready to step on stage for a concerto.
I cover all aspects of flute playing including note reading, sound production, posture, technique as well as musicality and expression.
I am based in London and am happy to travel to your home. Alternatively, you can book online lessons.

Hello! I'm a 26-year-old language teacher with a passion for helping students reach their language learning goals. I hold degrees in Business and Languages (French and Spanish) from the University of Nottingham and Social Sciences from the Paris III Sorbonne Nouvelle. I am also TEFL certified and have five years of experience teaching English to students of all ages in both China and Spain.

My areas of expertise include English for everyday life, English for academia, and Business English. I have taught primarily teenagers and adults, but I also have some experience teaching children. In addition, I have helped students prepare for the Cambridge IELTS exam.

My teaching philosophy centers around creating a comfortable and engaging learning environment where students can improve their language skills through practice, repetition, and interactive activities. I believe in tailoring lessons to individual learning styles and needs, and I always strive to make lessons both enjoyable and effective.

If you're looking for a dedicated, experienced, and personable language teacher, I would love to work with you to help you achieve your language learning goals.

I offer lessons to all ages and abilities, from complete beginners to those more advanced.

Typical lessons last from 30 minutes to an hour.

All of my lessons are tailored to meet the exact needs and preferences of my students, whether that's working towards their next graded exam, playing just for fun, and anything in between.

I hold a first class honours degree in Classical Flute from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where I studied with Ian Clarke and Philippa Davies, and won the Needlemaker's Woodwind Prize. After graduating in 2022, I was invited to become a Guildhall School Junior Fellow, specialising in Flute and Composition.

As a freelance flautist, I have had the privilege of performing at prestigious venues such as the Royal Albert Hall, Barbican Concert Hall and the Southbank Centre. My performance experience encompasses a diverse range of settings, from live radio broadcasts to collaborations with dance and art installations, reflecting my versatility as a musician, and openness to help my students pursue their own personal journey, both within music and as an individual in general.

In addition to my passion for the flute, I am also an accomplished composer with a portfolio of commissioned works premiering at renowned venues and exhibitions worldwide. Notable highlights include composing for Wessel Flutes, Berlin Fashion Week, Nxt Museum (Amsterdam), and Adidas Y-3. My work as a composer heavily influences my approach to teaching. Beyond emphasising technical proficiency and a solid grasp of music theory, I am dedicated to nurturing creativity in all of my students.
