About Emma

In my music career I am a Senior manager for a National disability music education organisation in Scotland, and I also sit on UK and International Boards advocating for music education. I wrote and published a recorder tutor book, Recorder Roundabout in 2008 which is a great fast track learning resource aimed to get children (or any age!) to grade 3 level in less than a year! I am also a member of the professional body, the Independent Society of Musicians. I obtained my BMus Honours Degree from University of Edinburgh in 2005. I am passionate about everyone having equal and equitable access to music!

About the lesson

I'm a highly experienced music teacher with 23 years teaching experience working with all ages and stages of learner. I teach piano, recorder, clarinet, saxophone and theory through my own self-employed private teaching practice. I work at the pace and to the interests of the learner. If someone wants to go down the exam route then we can do that, or if they want to learn for fun that is also on offer. I have also helped people with short-term musical goals, such as passing exams, or auditions with less than expected notice. I have experience working with those with additional support needs (ASN/SEND) too. I have an excellent pass and results rate with exams, and in particular with music theory exams. I know that every student is different and learns in different ways and at different paces, so you'll always get a bespoke and learner-centred approach if you have lessons with me. I also have expert knowledge in alternative notation systems (such as Figurenotes) that are ideal for those with learning needs or dyslexia. I also often teach with the help and assistance of my 20-year-old cat, Tess! I teach predominantly online which works around people's schedules, work schedules, childcare with siblings, and allowing pupils to learn from the comforts of their own home. I offer a trial lesson for free! I teach on Friday afternoons only around my full-time work with a national organisation. EDIT: 2 available slots on Friday afternoons from July due to students leaving for university. 1pm-1.45pm, and 5.45pm-6.45pm. Long-term students preferred. Over the years I've taught many students from beginner to university level, and have had students go on to study music at universities and Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. If you are interested in exams, I am happy to go down the routes of both ABRSM and Trinity. References: Emma is a skilled and inspiring teacher. She taught my son for 8 years and was always patient, responsive to his style of learning and most importantly made piano fun. Lessons with Emma were enriching and confidence building. She even guided my music theory adverse child to a distinction at Grade 5! Emma was wonderful with my son when he was a timid eight-year-old and continued to be a much-loved teacher well into his teenage years. (Lisa A, parent of former pupil) She is great at teaching both children and adults - first teaching my daughter piano and now helping me to finally complete Grade 8 (Philippa, current adult pupil) - update - she passed her grade 8 with merit!
