‘I started teaching violin and piano as a student in Canterbury. After graduating with a degree in Music and Mathematics, I worked in the local music shop and continued tutoring a handful of pupils.

I moved to Scotland in 1987, and after the birth of my daughter, I started teaching again from my home in Pitscottie and later in Ceres, Fife.

I enjoyed many years working at Butterstone School in Meigle, and also New Park School in St Andrews, both of which are now closed.

I currently teach from my cottage and also in clients’ homes.’
