Approach

Teaching starts with sound and listening, and works from natural movements. Attention is given to technique, general musical education and, where needed, audio recordings.

• Working by ear
• Natural posture, breathing and movement
• General musical education
• Exercises to address physical playing difficulties

Introductory meeting and exams

Before lessons begin, there is an introductory meeting to discuss expectations. For beginners, a short listening test may be part of the meeting, and advanced students may be asked to give a trial performance. Students can prepare for ABRSM exams or take EPTA grade exams.
