About Alex
I graduated from St John's College, Cambridge with a double first in Music, and am now working as a private tutor in London. While cultivating a wide range of interests as an undergraduate, including interdisciplinary methods of music analysis, music theory, nineteenth-century Austro-German music and the music of Chopin, I also studied piano at the Royal Academy of Music. I offer tuition to all ages in Music up to A Level, and piano and music theory up to Grade 8. Equally, I offer Maths tuition up to GCSE, and all-round support for any university applicants in Music, Oxbridge included.
I have worked with many young children as a part-time teaching assistant for the SHINE programme on Saturdays, supporting classes of approximately twenty primary school pupils in the areas of Maths and English. Within these classes, I supervised small groups, using creative discourse as a means of approaching literary and mathematical problems. I also have over 70 hours of of private teaching experience with students between 5 to 18+ years of age, many of whom I have prepared for exams such as GCSEs and ABRSM grades.
Tuition is fundamentally about building strong working relationships between people, centring on the joys and aspirations of all learners. Guided by this philosophy, I begin work with students by means of an informal assessment to gauge strengths and interests. A clear foundation then forms, on top of which I devise an individually tailored plan of work to foster intellectual curiosity, confidence and creativity. As full courses of tuition unfold, I routinely re-examine all long-range goals and teaching methods with students, ensuring the best chances of fulfilling their greatest potential. None of this is possible without continual feedback from students themselves – something just as invaluable as their own ideas about all material being covered at every stage in the process.
Alongside my strong academic background, I commenced my piano studies at the age of fifteen, rapidly developing proficiency and achieving Grade 8 in two years before having lessons at the Royal Academy of Music. I therefore understand that all young learners need continual and intensely encouraging support to thrive, to develop their own voice and to achieve their full potential. I provide this support through discursive teaching and with bespoke educational programmes for any students in need of long-term assistance. Simultaneously, I am always available for one-off lessons – whatever your needs, get in contact to discuss what works best for you.
