Music Performance Tutors : 1-1 Music Performance Lessons

Hi, I’m LucyAnne! I’m 23 years old and I live in London. I work as an actor and freelance singer, and also part-time as a teaching assistant and a tutor.

I studied History, English, Music and Biology at A Level (3 A*s, 1A) and, while at school, also gained two diplomas in French Horn (LRSM and DipABRSM) alongside Grade 8 Singing (ABRSM) and Verse & Prose (LAMDA), Grade 7 Piano (ABRSM) and Acting (LAMDA) and Grade 5 Music Theory (ABRSM). I then undertook a BA in History and English at Oxford, during which time I was awarded two scholarships for academic achievement. Since graduating in 2021, I have also gained an Acting Diploma from the London School of Dramatic Art.

I absolutely loved my time at uni, and while at school I was lucky enough to have some amazing teachers that showed me how fun learning can be. I would love to be able to inspire others like I was inspired.

My hobbies include cooking, reading and going on walks around my local area looking for cats to stroke!

With over eight years of experience as a fully qualified teacher—including roles as Music Subject Lead and Maths—I am passionate about making learning engaging, accessible, and fun. My mission is to build confidence and instil a love for learning, especially in those who find maths or music difficult. Recognised with a Highly Commended Award for Pearson’s National Teacher of the Year in a secondary school (2022), I take pride in delivering tailored, supportive lessons that truly make a difference.

Prior to my teaching career, I travelled to the UK from Australia with a full University Scholarship to study music. I was fortunate to perform with some of the best Brass Bands in the world, traveling on tour with them all over the world. Having achieved the prestigious Harry Mortimer Performance Prize, and winner the British Cornet Solo Championships, I continued my journey by serving in the British Army as a professional trumpeter in the Coldstream Guards Scots Guards Band. It was here where I found the love of teaching. Following my Military career, I became a fully trained Music teacher and experienced 8+ years teaching in a variety of education settings such as Primary, Secondary and SEN/D schools. Throughout this time, I developed a passion for teaching Maths and working with learners who are SEN, Neurodiverse, anxious and lacking in confidence. Having struggled with Maths as a school student, I was driven to making Maths more fun, exciting, enjoyable and accessible – being the teacher I always needed! I am now delving into the world of tutoring where I can reach more learners that need me.

“My daughter absolutely adores the way Steph delivers the learning as it’s fun, and she finally understands Maths in a way that makes sense to her. I have never seen her so engaged & focused! What a positive experience.” – Parent Testimonial, January 2025.

Hi My name is Oliver Pritchard Jones and I am a saxophone and music teacher currently training in Leeds.

I have over 10 years experience of saxophone and have had the privilege to study with some of this country’s best saxophonists (Rob Buckland, Sarah Markham, Naomi Sullivan, Chris Gumbley). This combined with the variety of genres I actively work in (Classical, Jazz, Pop, Free improvisation) has made me a very flexible and well rounded musician.

I have been through the UK’s music education system from high school as well as sitting all the ABRSM performance and theory grades up to a diploma in saxophone. This wealth of experience has enabled me to help tutor others and give relevant advice to get through these exams and assesments

More important than any of my past experience is that I am an active profesional who cares deeply about their craft and helping other achieve their musical potential.

Hello my name is Heidi and I am currently doing a Masters in Music Management at the University of Leeds. Recently, I have just finished my undergraduate degree in Music at the University of Bristol. Before this, I undertook my A-Levels in 2020 and received offers from all the universities I applied for (Durham, York, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Bristol).

I am passionate about music and getting people to think “outside the box”. I have a wide variety of skills which I incorporate into my teaching styles and personality. As someone who regularly performs as a classical singer, I have great public speaking skills, creativity as well as professionalism which music has taught me. As someone with ADD, I have unique methods to making information stick and always keep persevering to reach my goals.

As the Employability lead at the University of Leeds for the school of music, I am also passionate about helping people follow their dreams and help with CV work, portfolio advice as well as just talking through plans. As people in school didn’t understand what careers Music can provide, I am passionate about proving that skills are transferable, rather than sticking into one degree speciality.

I am not your typical music student, as I believe in a holistic approach to learning and tackling problems. I always find new tactics until I succeed effectively.

I hope we can work well together and achieve what you set your mind to!
