About Jimmy
Hello, I'm Jimmy!
My love of classical piano music blossomed in my early teens and I've dedicated my life to refining the craft ever since. I studied music at GCSE and A level before going on to study at the University of Southampton with an emphasis on performance, where I graduated with second class honours. All the while under excellent instruction from a phenomenal professional concert pianist.
Since then I've moved away from my home in Portsmouth to achieve my Masters in Music, specialising in performance, at the University of Cardiff; where music education is a significant part of my degree.
Despite being a late starter, music is my life. I believe music is for everyone and there's no such thing as being too old, too late, or too slow. I also don't believe in "talent" as something you either have or haven't got; anyone and everyone can achieve their dreams if they have a receptive and responsive teacher.
Outside of music I have other academic interests in mathematics, physics, and history; B2 proficiency in Japanese; as well as a sporting career in judo and Brazilian jiu jitsu. Yet no aspect of my life is untouched by music!
I can't wait to share that joy with you!
