I have over 15 years of experience, in teaching music to children and adults of all ages. My main profession is individual and group music lessons, within primary schools. I have many private music students - which I have now adapted to teaching, where needed, via skype/zoom or using other digital resources. This method is working incredibly well!
I am the co-founder of a music school (Exeter Music Holiday School), which has been running for 7 years. We offer workshops and individual lessons, throughout every UK, mainstream school holiday. I also play the flute in a Ceilidh band, play in the pit for panto, and have perfomed on various instruments (including vocals), for group concerts and individual performances.
As the 'Wind' section leader, for Exeter Childrens Orchestra (ECO), I am having a wondeful experinece so far, and it has given me the opportunity to brush up on my basic Bassoon skills - which is my next planned venture.
Teaching the following instruments/vocals, in schools and privately has enabled me to tutor to varying degrees, and examination levels (I generally use ABRSM, as the preffered exam board). Here are the instruments I can provide lessons for:
Flute
Clarinet
Recorder
Guitar
Ukulele
Trumpet/cornet
Piano/keyboards
Violin
Cello
Singing
Music Theory
At music school, I run workshops in world music, folk music, tales and art. Storytelling through music. Wind, strings, brass and percussion. Many workshops are adapted to the seasons, outdoor spaces so that we can explore and be inspired. Music really holds no bounderies and can be found everywhere.
I am constantly learning a new instrument, and take the exams through the levels. It keeps me on track with how it feels to learn and coping with exam prep and nerves. Empathy and connections is very important.
Being a parent, I know how important it is, to feel that your child is safe and happy with a mentor. This is why I encourge the take-up of a 'free' initial lesson, so that you feel happy and comfortable with going forward.
Although I do not have any specialist qualifications in working with children and adults with additional needs, I do have lots of experience. I have many wondefullly bright students, within these spectrums, whom have taught me so much. I am more than happy to re-invent the wheel and nurture what is important to each person. My eldest son is a child with autism, and he is an incredibly gifted musicican, who learns by ear and repitition (even though he can read music prefectly well) - as this is how he responds. He feels his way though it, and this makes his very happy. He has also happily sat many exams.
I would love to hear from you. Feel free to get in touch with any questions.

Newbury Flute, Saxophone & Theory Tuition - About us.
David W. began playing the flute at the age of eleven. Having achieved a distinction in grade eight at the age of sixteen he joined H. M. Forces as a musician with the Staff Band of the Royal Corps of Transport. During his fifteen years as principal flautist of the R. C. T. Staff Band, he toured many countries around the world including a State visit to Jordan with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 2. Other duties included radio broadcasts, C. D. recordings and concerts.
After leaving the Army, David went to study for a music degree, graduating from Sheffield University in 1998 with a B. A. (Hons) 2. 1 in music as well as achieving the Licentiate of the Royal Schools of Music diploma. After graduating, in 1999, David was appointed flute specialist for Berkshire Maestros teaching students throughout Berkshire and conducting various ensembles.
Since leaving Berkshire Maestros in 2008, David is now a freelance flute and saxophone teacher teaching privately from his home in the centre of Newbury alongside teaching in secondary schools. David has entered over five hundred students for the ABRSM examinations, of those students, many have continued with their flute and saxophone studies at University and most of his pupils have been and are members of the Newbury Flute Choir.
David is also the founder and musical director of The Newbury Flute Choirs formed in September 2008. The Flute Choir which includes all ages, regularly perform at concerts around Newbury (required standard is grade 5 to grade 8+) They also perform with our very own string section (comprising of 2 violins, viola, cello, acoustic guitar and piano) who accompany the flute choir for concerts.
David is also a talented arranger for flute and wind ensembles writing music for the Newbury Flute Choir, Berkshire Maestros Ensembles and has also been commissioned to arrange music for schools ensembles.
David also performs flute regularly in the orchestra for NOMADS (Newbury Opera, Musical and Drama Society) and BATS (Basingstoke Amateur Theatrical Society)
