I have always been passionate about music and have been inspired by my teachers. While I was studying Music at the University of Chichester, I took particular interest in the instrumental and vocal teaching modules, as well as performance. I played with many different groups there, including Contemporary Music Group and the University Orchestra. Since Graduating six years ago, I have been working in schools across Norfolk including Hethersett Old Hall School, North Walsham High School Saturday Arts and Beccles Free School. At these schools I help with several extra-curricular groups. I believe it is important for students to be able to work together on performances as well as individually. At North Walsham High School I have run a series of workshops aimed at young children as an introduction to music around the world and at Hethersett I have led ensembles including the school orchestra and wind band. I also teach at Busybodies Stage School, as well as Northgate High School, the Anglia Regional Theatre School and recently Notre Dame Prep School.
