Class Experience
Learn to play the harp with an experienced teacher in a fun and engaging style. I taper lessons to my pupils needs of all ages and abilities, and I'm proud of my flexibility and patience. We will learn the harp techniques needed to fulfill ambitions. I teach lever and pedal harp students. Pupils will learn to play with ease, and with lots of style and character. Lessons will include: • Warm up exercises • Scales and arpeggios • Pieces in a range of styles. • Practice goals to develop for next lesson.
Learning Goals
Children will learn how to play with good technique and style.

Hello,
I come from a musical family- in fact my parents met at the Welsh National Opera as professional violinists! Their passion for music rubbed off on me and I took up the violin age 3!
I have been playing ever since.
I love teaching and performing. I have a master's degree and BA in violin performance from TrinityLaban, where I learned with Michael Bochmann MBE. I teach individually, in groups and direct youth orchestras for music services across London.
I studied the harp at Wells Cathedral School with Ruth Faber, and at TrinityLaban with Gabriella Dall'olio. I enjoy teaching the Harp in London and on Outschool.
My main aim is to give pupils the necessary skills in an enthusiastic and fun way, so they can acquire the educational and wellbeing benefits from learning an instrument.
Thanks for your interest in my lessons. Reviews
