Teaching

I teach fiddle and piano privately in the Scottish Borders and Edinburgh area.

I also teach groups - Highline are a folk group I teach in Kelso, and Stocksfield Stompers in Northumberland.

I teach for Northumberland County Council in Berwick first schools, with the whole class, to give everyone the chance to learn the fiddle and this can start them off and lead them on to future music learning. I also teach the ceilidh band in Berwick Middle School and I teach in Newcastle High School for Girls, both junior and senior schools.
