- Tell me about your qualifications.

I read Music through an instrumental scholarship at Royal Holloway, University of London, achieving a 1st class honours degree (2005-2008) before going on to study 'cello at the Royal College of Music, London, for a Master's in Performance (2009-2011).

- How much do you charge?

Free consultation lessons, always. It is important teacher and pupil are well matched and I expect students may be wary of learning before they meet 'teacher'.

For most cases I charge £35/hour for travelling to pupils' houses (depending on the length of travel). I can also teach from home at a reduced rate of £30/hour, or £20/half hour. If wish to 'buddy up' with a friend and take joint lessons this will be reduced further.

- Where do you teach?

My home is in Camberwell, less than 10 minutes walk from Oval tube station. Surrounding areas of Kennington, Vauxhall, Stockwell, Clapham, Brixton, are all close by, and I can travel further afield as well (I have a number of students in West London)

- When are you available?

My schedule varies considerably so it helps to be flexible when booking lessons, but I will endeavour to keep them as regular as possible.

- Which ages and levels do you teach?

I teach all years from age 5+
