About the lesson

Hello I'm Martin, a graduate of the Royal College of Music and very much interested in imparting what I have learned to bassoonists and clarinettists in London today.

- Which subject(s) do you teach?

I am a bassoonist by trade but also teach Clarinet and Theory.

- Tell me about your qualifications.

I have just graduated from the Royal College of Music with a BMus (Hons) and also have grade 8s in jazz clarinet (trinity and guildhall) and theory (abrsm).

- How much do you charge?

I charge £25 pounds for an hour long lesson and £15 for half an hour.

- Where do you teach?

I am willing to go to students' houses and to travel to most areas in west London, but am based mainly in the Southfields area.

- When are you available?

I am very flexible with times for lessons and will try to find a time suitable for them.

- Which ages and levels do you teach?

I am happy to teach all ages, and can teach bassoon to grade 8 and beyond. I am also happy to teach grade 5 theory and clarinet.

- Which qualifications do you prepare your students for?

I am prepared to train students for abrsm exams and those of other main exam boards if that is what the student wishes to aim for, however I do not see exams as an essential part of musical training and the most important factor for me is that the student is enjoying the process of learning an instrument.
