Flexable, outgoing music enthusiast looking to inspire and have fun!

Brisbane tutor in Keyboard, Piano.

Availability: Monday - Friday 9-6.30pm, may be flexible outside these times or days.

I teach from my home in Everton Hills. The best way to contact me is by phone. English is my native language; I prefer to teach children and teenagers of all ages as this is where my experience lies.

I have taught 30+ students, some with special needs. I am looking forward to increasing my workload whilst finishing my final grades and taking the time to figuring out how I want to teach. I hope to teach the basics skills needed sufficient enough so that students can pick up a piece of music they like and know how to improvise if it is too difficult, I will also encourage students to write their own music, to play in a band or to perform down.

I have played since the age of 5.

I am currently completing my piano grades. I am also in my 3rd year studying a Bachelor of Education Primary, majoring in special needs & music.

I have worked as a teacher's aide and a disability support worker for 8 years, a swimming instructor for 5 and have worked with children in my church community programs for 17 years, as a conductor, primary music director and pianist. I have also taught the piano to children with and without special needs.
