About Simon
I studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London as a junior student and from there went on to study at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester. I have studied organ, piano, harpsichord, singing, conducting, advanced theory and musicology. I feel confident that I am qualified to pass on some of the knowledge that I have gained during quite a few years of study. I hold performance diplomas in piano, organ and singing. I hold degrees of MA, BMus(Hons) and BA. I still perform regularly both locally and nationally as a singer and as a keyboard player. I still hold the same love for music that I had as a young student and passing that enthusiasm onto students is something that I greatly enjoy.

English
I teach piano, singing, organ and music theory (including GCSE and A Level coaching) to people of all ages and abilities. I have 20 years of experience, branching out into online lessons at the time of Covid. A certain mix of online and in-person learning depends on the level of student and it is something we can discuss. I would hope that my style of teaching is always clear and to the point - very much student focused and what they are wanting to achieve. I try to pass on my knowledge and love of music in a stimulating and easy to understand manner. I also hope that I put great care and effort into making my students enthusiastic about the possibilities of playing music and inspiring them to push their own boundaries further with each lesson. I am thrilled at the results my students have gained - both through ABRSM and Trinity and I have enjoyed working with them towards achieving their goals.
Recommendations

Have had lessons with Simon for several years. He has really built my confidence, as well as teaching me technique, and I have recently achieved my performance ARSM - something i would not have even considered in the past. Instruction is clear, Simon is patient and lessons are enjoyable. Would recommend!
I was recommended Simon when my previous piano teacher was moving abroad and I have to say my playing has improved so much. His knowledge and understanding of music, technique, and experience is in my opinion unequalled. I actually travel 2 hours to lessons, which should provide evidence enough in his quality.
Simon is a great musician and a formidable music teacher. When I was looking for lessons locally, he stood out as being almost the only one with what I would call a proper training in what I was looking for. He is passionate about music and has shared that passion with very many pupils over the years. I studied with him from a Grade 5 standard. With him I received a distinction at my Grade 8 and I am currently studying with him for my Associateship Diploma. Simon is quick witted, funny, challenging and inspiring. He teaches all levels and ages with the same passion - my children are also having lessons with him. I warmly recommend him to anyone who wants their learning of Music to be rewarding as well as a lot of fun!
Simon is a fantastic piano teacher. He makes lessons enjoyable, progress feel achievable, and learning from such a brilliantly talented musician is a real joy. I trust him completely as a tutor and couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

Details
I teach singing, organ, piano, theory as well as coach GCSE and A Level Music. My hourly rate is competitively priced as I realise that private education is not cheap and I hope that my teaching rates are commensurate with my training and experience.
