- Tell me about your qualifications.

I hold a First Class Honours BMus from Cork Institute of Technology, Cork School of Music, which is Ireland's largest music conservatory. Each year of my degree I obtained the 'Director's award' for having obtained the highest marks in my degree. In my final year, I obtained the 'Above and beyond' award for the most helpful and academically excellent student. I also hold a Licentiate Diploma in Cello performance from the Associated board of the Royal Schools of Music, as well as Grade 8 piano and music theory (obtained with Distinction).

- How much do you charge?

I charge £30 pounds per lesson. Travel expenses are negotiable, although not usually included in the price of the lesson. Group lessons and cookery lessons are £25 per hour, except for group theory lessons, which are £30. A discounted consultation lesson can be arranged.

- Where do you teach?

I do not teach at home, as there is not enough room here, but I am based between Camden Town and Kentish Town, which makes these locations ideal. I am willing to travel to anywhere in North, North west, East and West London, provided it is within zone 2 on the tube travel zones.

- When are you available?

I am studying for an MA part-time at the moment, so am very flexible in terms of hours. I can teach both on weekdays and at the weekends.

- Which ages and levels do you teach?

I teach all ages and abilities.

- Which qualifications do you prepare your students for?

I prepare my students for graded music exams and diplomas (usually ABRSM, but can also work on other exam board syllabi), GCSE and A Level music and also teaching people who want to play for fun.

- Describe your arrangements for online tutoring.

Lessons are possible over Skype.

- Do you have a personal message for students?

I am an extremely enthusiastic, patient and creative teacher. I seek to make the lessons as interesting as possible and cater towards each of my students' individual strengths. I hope to pass on my passion for teaching to you very soon!
