About Lisa
Bassoon: I have over 20 years' experience teaching pupils ranging from 7-70! I teach both privately at home and at schools. I currently bassoon teach privately at home but have previously taught at: Cheltenham Ladies' College Badminton School (Bristol) Redmaids' High School (Bristol) Cheltenham College The High School of Glasgow (2005-2016) Clifton College (Bristol) Clifton High School (Bristol) The King's School, Canterbury. Many of my pupils progress right through to Grade 8/diploma and a number have successfully auditioned for the National Youth Orchestras of Scotland (NYOS) and Junior Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (RCS). Learning music should be fun and I work hard to build on my pupils' enthusiasm. I invariably demonstrate to pupils how to play as I feel that this is a crucially important part of the learning process. I regularly enter pupils for Trinity and ABRSM exams, although taking exams is certainly not essential!! Lessons for beginners to Grade 5 are usually 30 minutes long. More advanced bassoon pupils will need 45-60 minutes. I am very happy to teach Grade 6+ bassoon pupils online, via Zoom. For players up to Grade 5 lessons would be in person at my home. I have an enhanced level DBS certificate and subscribe to the DBS update service.

I am a bassoon teacher with over 20 years' experience and have worked in numerous high-profile schools including Cheltenham Ladies' College. I was awarded a scholarship to study bassoon at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London, from where I graduated in 1989 with a GGSM diploma. In addition, I have ABRSM Grade 8 piano. I also run a specialist publishing company specialising in arrangements for woodwind such as wind quintets and bassoon quartets. I sell music right around the world and many of my publications are broadcast on radio and television and also released on CD.
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Lisa's lessons are always professionally given, and her playing is of a high standard. She thinks about each student, their abilities and aspirations and is very cheerful in her approach. As a qualified music teacher, my own bassoon playing has significantly improved since I have had lessons with Lisa and I would thoroughly recommend her as a teacher.
I have known Lisa for six years during which time she has taught my son bassoon from an early player to gaining distinction at grade 8. Lisa is very knowledgeable about and a master of her instrument. She is extremely personable, friendly and encouraging, but with high expectations of her pupils. I cannot recommend Lisa highly enough as a bassoon teacher for any child or adult, no matter what stage they are at. She is simply superb.
