What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can deliver inclusive, creative music education, develop curricula, lead group piano programmes, and contribute to community music initiatives while continuing professional development and collaborative school or organisation partnerships.

I am a dedicated music educator who operates a successful piano teaching studio and works as a primary music specialist for schools in the Inverness and Strathspey regions. I hold a First Class Bachelor's in Music (classical piano performance) and a Postgraduate Diploma in Community Music (Distinction), and I draw on contemporary pedagogy to deliver creative, inclusive, and high-quality lessons for all ages.

My experience spans private tuition, group piano pedagogy, community music projects, and roles in marketing, communications and retail leadership. I consistently create bespoke curricula, manage lesson administration and reporting, adapt teaching for online delivery, and foster student musicianship, confidence and wellbeing while maintaining strong professional standards and ongoing CPD.
