  • As a private music tutor, I saw it as my job to help students with understanding a wide range of music if that's what they wanted to explore.
  • I've had first-hand experience with AMEB exams and taught multiple students who have done exceptionally well in their own exams. Having been nominated for Encore for my performances during HSC, I'm also able to help guide students on how to do exceptionally well in school performances.

As a music tutor I would help a large number of students prepare for their exams mostly working with the higher grade students who the other teachers couldn't really work with. Mostly trying to perfect or hone in on their techniques and expressiveness in their playing.


I also helped with accompanying students when they played in our end of semester student concerts.
