My teaching style.

My teaching style is centred around a love of music of all styles enabling me to connect with students with music that they really want to play.

I like talking to my students about music they've heard and are excited about, helping them to understand the building blocks of music and playing songs they love.

I received a first class degree from the University of Sussex studying music. I hold grade 8 certificates in Piano and Guitar and teach all abilities and styles on both instruments. In my own studies, I have continued to study for further diploma exams and I am learning Cello.

I can teach in Classical, Rock, Pop and Funk styles. I have prepared students for exams with ABRSM, Rockschool and Trinity on both instruments.


"James was brilliant with our kids - mixing a sense of fun with musical rigour. He got to know each of our children, and tailored his approach according to their needs and interests.  Their time working with Jamie has really fostered a musical curiosity and a genuine love of playing."

- Hazel

“James is a fantastic teacher- my sons piano has gone from strength to strength with James teaching him -  and most of the lessons have been via zoom - he is so positive and enthusiastic even when practice has been a bit slow that my son looks forward to the lesson- he has gone from 0 to grade 3 in a relatively short time,  I would highly recommend you to anyone !!”
