Masterclasses are intensive private lessons, offering practical, personalised solutions to your musical frustrations, problems and roadblocks.

1. Pre-lesson preparation

30 minutes

You will be asked to complete a short lesson brief outlining your questions, problems, and what you would like help with. You can also send links to recordings, videos, original compositions, recent performances and other supporting material for me to review in advance. Any material you share with me is completely confidential and will only be used for the purpose of our lesson together.

I spend 30 minutes reviewing your brief and will prepare resources, exercises, feedback and other helpful information to discuss during the Zoom session.

2. One-on-one Zoom lesson

90 minutes

During the 90 minute Zoom lesson we discuss your questions and issues and any of the materials you shared. We will workshop solutions together, and create practice and homework plans for after the session ends. You will always leave the lesson inspired, and with a clear set of next steps to explore in your own practice.

3. Follow-up masterclasses

You can book follow-up masterclasses on a timetable that suits your goals, whether that is every few weeks or just once every couple of months.

Who are masterclasses for?

Best suited to intermediate+ students

Masterclasses are designed for you to take what we workshop in the 90 minute session and then apply it in your own practice. You don’t have to be an expert at your instrument yet, but you should have some independence and self-motivation to get the most out of the format.

Options for beginner students

If you are just starting out I recommend ongoing weekly lessons instead of masterclasses. You will progress much faster with regular lessons and we can address any technique issues promptly so you don’t develop unhelpful habits that are hard to break later.

Scheduling your lesson time

Masterclasses are scheduled at the time of booking.

Cancelling and rescheduling masterclasses

All masterclass purchases are non-refundable and cannot be cancelled, however the Zoom lesson can be rescheduled with 24 hours notice. You will receive an email reminder 48 hours before your masterclass with a link to reschedule the date or time if required.  Each masterclass can be rescheduled once, and if you can’t attend the rescheduled lesson it will be forfeited.

If you miss the Zoom lesson due to illness and can’t provide the required 24 hours notice you may rebook your lesson during the same week, subject to availability.

Occasionally lessons may need to be cancelled by me due to illness or other commitments. In this case the lesson will be rescheduled if possible, or the fee refunded.

If technical issues mean the lesson is cut short or can’t go ahead I will do my best to make up the remaining time on another day / time, subject to availability.

Punctuality

Lessons must run to schedule and lessons will finish on time even if you are late to the Zoom meeting.

Submitting masterclass materials

I request you submit your materials for masterclasses 24 hours in advance. Masterclass materials include recordings, videos, sheet music, original songs and any particular topics you would like to cover in the lesson. If you forget to submit your materials in advance we will review them together during the 90 minute Zoom lesson time.
