學生社團內容
This group provides a space for all things music: A place for students to engage with listening to new music, sharing the music that they love, and learning about composers, instruments of the orchestra, and elements of music theory. This is a group for both people who are new to orchestral music, and those with more experience of listening and/or playing an instrument. Throughout the weeks, we'll have activities such as thread-based games, creative challenges, discussion questions, puzzles and anagrams, listening recommendations, practice goals, and music analysis projects. We will have short- and long-term assigned pieces of music to discuss and analyse. It is suitable for anyone with an interest in the topic area! I will moderate the group by posting the weekly discussion topics, facilitating interactions between learners, and ensuring that all learners feel heard and welcome. Each month, learners will be able to have their say on choosing themes, composers, or pieces for discussions and activities which can be posted in the group. Activities will as learner-led as possible, so be sure to share your ideas and inspiration in the group! Some examples of regular group activities include: - RECOMMENDATION THREAD - Share a piece of music that you've listened to each week with a comment about what you liked or disliked about it. The recommendation threads will sometimes have themes such as 'romantic era' or 'pieces that include a soloist'. - INSTRUMENT OF THE WEEK - Learn information about a specific instrument, including how it makes different sounds and effects, find examples of music where that instrument is the "star" of the piece. - PRACTICE GOAL THREAD - Share your instrument practice or musical knowledge goals and progress with the group, and motivate your classmates to keep learning and practicing. - SHORT FOCUS PIECE - Learn a specific listening skill or music theory skill applied to a new piece each week - LONG FOCUS PIECE - Study one orchestral piece in more depth over a number of weeks, learning and discussing the sound of the piece, music theory elements, history and context, and other elements of analysis. - GAME THREAD - Participate in forum games such as 'Guess the Composer' or 'Music Vocabulary Alphabet Soup'. - STORIES FROM THE ORCHESTRA - Share and read stories, tips, and experiences about being a member of an orchestra.

指南
Welcome to our Group! We want all of our learners to feel comfortable, connected, and safe. That's why we have 3 rules we ask you to follow: Be Kind, Be Safe, and Be Respectful.
Be Kind - Help all learners feel welcome and included.
Learners from all over the world, with different backgrounds, races, ethnicities, abilities, gender identities, religions and body types, participate in our Group. Always be nice and make others, especially new learners, know that they belong and are welcome. Teasing, name calling, or bullying anybody in our community? Nope. Not happening here
Be Safe - Keep your personal information private and never ask other learners for theirs.
Personal things are personal. We want to keep you safe on Outschool, but we also want YOU to understand how to be safe when you're meeting other learners or teachers. Keep your full name, home address, gaming or social media name, email, and school name private.
Be Respectful - Treat others how you want to be treated.
Keep language clean and information you share safe. If you wouldn't say it or share with your grandma, don't do it here. Swear words, racy videos, and violent images are not allowed. Treat Outschool like a public place, and when in doubt, keep things covered.
Please make your intro video (it can be as short as "Hello, my name is _____" or long and detailed if you wish!).
Then you can join in with the discussions and activities :)

ABOUT ME
I love to learn, and I am a big advocate of following your interests - even if they might not seem compatible at first glance!
My teaching philosophy is to encourage intellectual curiosity, motivation, and aspiration in students, whatever their current stage of education.
I teach a range of subject areas, including Psychology, Biology, Music Theory, and Maths. I'm developing new ideas all the time, so please feel welcome to get in touch if there's something you'd like to see! I can also create custom sessions - so if there's something you're looking for and can't find, please just ask!
GENERAL TEACHING APPROACH
My teaching style differs depending on different topics/activities, but my general approach is to welcome students into an environment where they can engage at a level where they feel comfortable, whilst also having opportunities to reach further and learn new things. I believe that learning is forever, and that learning should never be constrained by just one syllabus/curriculum. Students tend to learn best when they are really interested in the subject, and I love to be able to give students the chance to explore their interests!
I encourage students to tell me what they already know about a topic, and I don't assume that I'm always the expert! I believe that learners can learn from each other's experiences and knowledge too. I also encourage everyone to ask 'why' things work as they do, and to research further around topics that capture their interest.
I don't use AI tools to provide feedback to learners as I believe that feedback should be provided that is genuine and written in my own voice.
I also believe that everyone should be able to participate in my classes, so if there may be barriers or you require adjustments to allow you to participate in a class, please feel welcome to get in touch.
Aside from initial verification when joining the session, I do not require students to use their camera for the full session (though sometimes I will request for certain activities!). I ask students to participate, but accept that this may be verbal discussion, writing in the chat box, or using zoom 'reactions' or visual cues on camera to respond during class. In general, I will invite anyone who would like to get involved to raise their hand, rather than putting an individual 'on the spot'.
MY CLASSES - OVERVIEW
I offer a range of sessions on Psychology topics - including themes such as Introduction to Neuroscience/Neuropsychology, Psychology of Music, Brain History, and Psychology of Gaming. The aim of these sessions is to capture students' interest, share knowledge from an unusual angle, and/or give space for students to discuss their interests while bringing in elements of the science of Psychology in an accessible way.
The most popular courses in 2023 were my ongoing sessions where students can further their learning in a relaxed setting, such as my Biology, Animal Anatomy, Plants, and Neuroscience colouring classes (where students can listen whilst making creative learning resources, with little pressure to answer questions and no pressure to be tested).
I offer lots of Flexible Schedule classes suitable for learners who prefer to take time to process information or to dig into a topic more deeply before coming back to discussion or to complete assignments. These classes allow students to take time to engage with material and written discussion threads outside of the constraints of a live session schedule, and spend additional time completing assignments that will encourage deeper thinking and topic enjoyment. These classes can also be great as holiday-projects!
I offer individual tutoring for students who would like to explore additional topics in Psychology, Biology, Mathematics, or Music. These sessions can be used to supplement other classes, as an individualised study session/program, or as subject-related mentoring.
For all my classes, if you don't see a suitable section scheduled, please do reach out as I can often fit in additional meetings!
WHAT ELSE DO I GET UP TO?
As well as teaching online on Outschool and independently, I also work as an Associate Lecturer in Psychology at the Open University. When I'm not teaching, I can usually be found practicing the violin, playing in orchestra, reading, and learning new things.
I previously completed a PhD in Psychology/Cognitive Neuroscience, which involved using EEG (an electrical brain recording method) to investigate visual perception. I have taught high school and university level Psychology classes since 2014, and I have tutored in Biology, Maths, and Music Theory since 2018. I started to learn the violin as an adult and progressed through to ABRSM Grade 8 in violin and AMusTCL Diploma level in music theory!
