Your music first
Scales earn their keep, but lessons start from songs you love — motivation is the method.
Exams optional
ABRSM and Trinity to grade 8 for those who want the ladder; jam nights for those who don't.
Working musicians
Every tutor gigs, records or conducts. You're learning from people who play for a living.
