She spends most of her time teaching others how to play the wide range of brass instruments that can be found in orchestras, brass bands and marching bands. For over 30 years she played in the 'Brighton and Hove City Brass' band where she started her musical career. This is not only a profession, but a hobby as well. Sian now plays in a ten piece ensemble 'Brass Fusion' performing with other 'ex bandsmen' on a casual, non-contesting, fun basis.
Although Sian primarily takes brass instrumental lessons, she does regularly run a theory class for all instrumentalists at one of the major schools. She also tries to cover basic theory points within her instrumental lessons as many players, not just brass, do not realise that once they obtain Grade Five practical they cannot move on until they have passed the Grade Five Theory exam. This can take quite a while if players have not covered any theory at all during their lessons. At present Sian has a 100% pass rate on all practical exams that her current students have taken.
Another string to her bow (!) is that she has run several recorder groups at one school as well as temporarily taking Year One music appreciation classes for a term. She also currently runs two brass ensembles at one of the major schools. Sian strives to help pupils obtain their graded examinations but at the same time keeping the playing fun and non pressured. The most important thing to her is that her pupils continue to enjoy playing and for it not to become a chore. To assist with the enjoyment of playing Sian runs a training band for anyone wishing to gain experience in group playing. All the terminology, harmony, sounds etc which are not experienced with individual lessons. The playing of 'non tune' parts where counting and listening are essential.
Sian is also Musical Director of one of the southern England's brass bands, where she regularly appears with them at local fetes, concerts, and garden parties. She is also a committee member for the Incorporated Society of Musicians.

Welcome to my music tutoring profile! I am an experienced piano teacher who is passionate about sharing my love for music with students of all ages and skill levels. Whether you're an absolute beginner or an advanced musician, I am here to help you unlock your musical potential. With a deep appreciation for all genres of music, I particularly have a soft spot for jazz and classical music. These genres have shaped my own musical journey and have allowed me to develop a comprehensive understanding of music theory, improvisation, and composition. I aim to instill the same appreciation and enthusiasm for these genres in my students, while also exploring other styles according to their interests. As a seasoned performer, I bring a wealth of practical knowledge and performance techniques to my teaching. I understand the challenges and joys of live performances, and I incorporate this experience into my lessons. I am also a firm believer in the power of education and self-directed learning. I encourage my students to explore their musical interests, set personal goals, and develop their own unique musical voice. When it comes to teaching, my style is enthusiastic, fast-paced, and varied. I believe that a dynamic and engaging approach fosters a love for music and accelerates the learning process. I utilise the Paul Harris simultaneous learning method, which integrates multiple aspects of music learning, such as technique, theory, sight-reading, and ear training, simultaneously. This holistic approach ensures that students develop a well-rounded understanding of music and are really able to see their progress in each practice session. The first lesson, which lasts 45 minutes, is completely free and comes with no obligation to continue. This allows potential students to get a feel for my teaching style and determine if it aligns with their learning preferences. For the convenience of my students, I am more than willing to travel to their location in Southwater and the surrounding areas. I believe that learning in a familiar and comfortable environment can enhance the overall experience and facilitate better progress. Let's explore the world of music together and unlock your full potential. Get in touch today to schedule your free introductory lesson!

I am a Modern Foreign Languages Graduate with several years of experience teaching both French and Spanish to A level (AQA and EDEXCEL). I am used to working with a wide range of students from lower to higher ability and have an open and direct approach to teaching and learning.
After working as an Au-Pair in France and spending a year teaching in Spain I went onto work in business as a Spanish Market Analyst. Throughout my career in Publishing, I frequently used French and Spanish whilst presenting or in international business negotiations. I speak French and Spanish fluently and Spanish on a daily basis and believe that languages are essential in today's working environment - not just as a communication tool but to better understand different cultures and societies.
At present, I teach in a Grammar School across all key stages.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.

I am a professional instructor of martial arts with decades of experience and a creator of program Dancefight.
I could run for your school a workshop or a regular after school class. I have a two programs which could be interesting for you: 1. Systema is a non-violent, liquid martial arts system based on being relaxed and flowing. It encourages sensitivity and deep understanding of body-mechanics rather than a ‘hard’ approach. I focus on conflict management and especially stress control which can be helpful in a learning environment. The children tend to gain in self-confidence and fitness which tends to lead to other learning benefits and respect.
2. Dancefight synergizes two ancient arts of movement: Dance and Martial Arts. It focus’ on the build up a responsive vital body, which is able to flow. It aims on developing our sensitivity to react on others and feel the flow of kinetic energy (bodywave). This wave naturally breaks down crystalised tissue and makes our bodies smoother and easier to move.
Keeping our bodies liquid out of our comfort zone improves your vitality, sharpens your mind and body.
Knowledge and experience of coping in stressful situations is helpful to pupils not just in conflict situations, but in playing sports, dancing, learning or any stressful situation.

Hi! My name is Adrian. I live in Southern England. I have helped learners for many years to learn and improve their English. I enjoy meeting people from many places. I am also interested in politics.
I have a hobby which is playing Brazilian-style percussion (drumming) music in a group of about 20 players. The name of our style of music is Samba Reggae.
Easy English ... Hello! My name is Adrian. I can help you with your English! My hobby is playing Brazilian drum music.
I have many years' experience helping people of many levels and ages with their pronunciation, grammar and general communication. I can speak some Russian ( Привет! ) and can help all levels from near-beginners to advanced with your English. I specialise in adults, and I also consider teaching children over 10 years old, particularly Russian-speaking children.
Of course, the lesson content very much depends on your needs, wishes and interests.
The main focus for most students is speaking and listening.
Many people require a lot of help with pronunciation, articles ( a / an / the ), the grammar structures of asking questions, and practicing speaking (and someone telling you when there are errors!). Lessons often start with pronunciation and grammar exercises (the student speaks the exercises), and include speaking about a topic. Examples of topics are "what you did yesterday", your interests, and problems of the world. In the process you practice grammar and pronunciation. We do many things in lessons!
Book a free trial lesson with me to discuss your goals and try out a selection of learning activities.

Personal Description:
I’m a practicing sound artist with a Masters from the Royal College of Art in Sound Design. Sound has always been my passion, incorporating creatively across many types of artistic practice. I studied Fine Art at Brighton achieving a First Class Honours. My thesis at the Royal College of Art was about percussion in social contexts, which was awarded a distinction and published. I am an award wining sound artist (University of Nagoya Prize, 2016) who has exhibited in many prestigious institutions (IRCAM Forum, Paris 2020 & 2021, London Design Biennale 2021). My work communicates science to audiences using sound, particularly young adults and children. Because of this I am often thinking about fun and interesting ways that children and young adults can learn. I continue to work now on sound design, recording and working on personal projects using sound as a medium for enquiry into science and philosophy.
Tutoring Approach:
As a people person I compliment everyone’s innate curiosity for sound. I easily adapt teaching to fit the needs and personality of each student. I try to keep a balance between teaching essential skills whilst also encouraging the student to problem solve creatively and intuitively allowing for efficiency whilst also keeping lessons fun.
