Extra-curricular music lessons

I have been teaching the clarinet, saxophone and piano both in schools and privately for over twenty years to pupils of all ages. I love watching musicians develop both their technical skills and creative skills, and encourage players to use these talents to play with and for others. I have hosted many musical concerts to raise money for various local charities, enabling my pupils to perform and share their favourite pieces with family and friends.

I teach a wide range of musical styles; popular, classical, romantic, contemporary and jazz, and I thoroughly enough playing pieces by composers such as Mozart on the clarinet and Gershwin on the saxophone.

I listen to many different modern artists and musicians, but particularly like Adele, Ed Sheeran, Jamie Cullum and Ludovico Einaudi. I believe it is really important to enjoy the music that you are play and have plenty of fun whilst studying and
practising the technical aspects of learning an instrument.

The love of music has shaped my life from an early age. I studied the flute and piano as a child and have always enjoyed playing in orchestras, singing in and conducting choirs as well as composing music (hence my interest in music theory). I graduated from Manchester University with an honours music degree and then progressed onto teacher training college. I have taught the flute all my life and enjoy seeing each student grow in skill and confidence, knowing the enrichment that music brings to life.

I play flute and whistles in a local folk band and enjoy writing and arranging music. I have discovered the value of music for those in local care homes, and regularly visit to sing and play along with other musicians. As I continue to learn and to pass on my love of music, I see others being similarly inspired as they learn to play a musical instrument.

Please contact me at philippa.wallin@btinternet.com to enquire about lessons. 

With over 15 years' experience instructing pupils on Electric, Classical, Acoustic and Bass guitar, I have helped hundreds of young people develop their skills, character and confidence through music. 

Enjoyment is at the heart of everything I do and I offer a lot of choice in my tuition. This can mean letting pupils request what songs they want to learn or following grades (I use the RSL syllabuses for popular music and Trinity Guildhall for classical) or we can delve into my catalogue of modern songs (50s-present) to develop their playing. I think a combination of all three of the above and a friendly, comfortable, relaxed atmosphere in lessons really gets the best from a young person.

In 2006 I graduated from the London College of Music with a BMus in popular music performance and since then, alongside teaching, I have toured theatres, venues and festivals all over the UK and Europe. My favourite gigs have been Alexandra Palace, the MEN arena, Cork Jazz festival, Isle of Wight festival, the 100 club and the Edinburgh Fringe.

I encourage pupils to explore a wide range of styles; Rock, Pop, Blues, Funk, Reggae, Metal, Folk, Jazz, Classical… And have also had the privilege of discovering new styles through pupils, working together to see these styles can fit onto a guitar, allowing them to develop their own unique covers.

Personally I grew up listening to 90s indie and acoustic singer songwriters, my two favourite artists being Radiohead & Willie Mason. The way they express themselves so freely in their music has had me hooked for decades!
