Common questions

A few practical details about lessons.

Are complete beginners welcome?

Yes. I especially enjoy working with complete beginners, late starters and people who already have experience on another instrument.

What styles do you teach?

Lessons can cover jazz, pop, rock, funk, blues and some classical music, depending on what you want to play.

Do I need my own instrument?

No. I can help arrange hireage if you do not yet have an instrument.

Can you help me find people to play with?

Yes. I’m well connected in the Wellington music scene and I’m happy to help introduce students to suitable ensembles and performance opportunities.

Where are lessons held?

Lessons are based in Thorndon, Wellington.

Are there performance opportunities?

Students can have the option to take part in a supportive house concert near the end of the year.
