About Mark
Hi, I am a professional musician who was trained at the Royal Northern College of Music and has performed with professional orchestras such as the BBC Philharmonic and bands on TV, radio and in theatre and concert halls around Europe. I am also really passionate about teaching all ages, from beginner to advanced level and love my work as a teacher. Having taught over 400 students in the area I have an extensive network and a lot of experience which has enabled me to develop my own unique methods which make learning both fun and effective. The first lesson is a free trial. I prefer to teach at your home. Lessons can be 30, 40 or 60 minutes duration payable by standing order. I teach guitar, piano, brass, theory, composition and songwriting all to grade 8 + level using Trinity College, Rock School or ABRSM as you wish. I also have my own curriculum which will expand on the grade system and includes creative work.

I am passionate about music education and have over the years constantly updated and reviewed my method which is a mixture of creative and technical work. Music is a fascinating mixture of cognitive and physical skills like no other activity and has huge benefits for players of all ages. I like to focus on building long-term memory which enables you to play with ease and enjoyment for your own relaxation. There is a special focus on sight reading to fluency and also being able to create music of your own which I regard as a vital part of the process of developing your own musical style. Many of my students have gone on to build careers in music, playing in their own successful groups and continuing to develop in this dynamic and multifaceted field. I believe a career in music is a valid and rewarding aim for those with the drive and determination and can also open doors to many other fields such as psychology, health in general, other performance arts, media, film and TV and music study even has applications in sports and physical education. Learning to play a musical instrument is an education in itself!

Mark has been brilliant. After an old school teacher who hit my son's hands when he got a wrong note Mark is the total opposite. He has reignited our child's love for music (both guitar AND piano!!) in no time at all even on the toughest and most tiring of days.
For our other son he has made music, calm, fun, and exploratory, sometimes indulging in improv or bringing in modern songs to keep lessons engaging and embedding a lifelong love of music that he will always lean on. Thank you Mark you are so kind and truly gifting our boys the love of music for life!Mark is an amazing teacher, I cannot recommend him highly enough. His teaching is relaxed, fun and so inspirational. He is supporting our son through guitar and piano exams as well as giving him so much confidence to find his own style. My son looks forward to his lessons and is progressing at a fantastic speed.
Mark has taught piano to me and our three children for many years now. He has a style of teaching which resonates with us - in summary, if you enjoy the process, you will learn and make progress…and it works! He is unfailingly positive, reliable and focuses lessons on what you want to get out of them. We feel lucky to have found him!
Mark is a great tutor. He has taught me piano for many years both face to face and online. He is an experienced and friendly tutor with a wealth of experience in music.
I’m glad I found a piano teacher as patient, friendly and knowledgeable as Mark.
My Son, who is Autistic, has been taking lessons with him for a few years now. Mark encourages my son to read as well as play music and pushes him to his abilities.
I would highly recommend Mark.Mark has been teaching my children now 10 and 12 yrs old for the last two years. He is super patient and makes each lesson enjoyable, so much so they look forward to his lessons each week. Both can read the music beautifully and remain engaged. Can’t recommend enough.
