Jonathan - Nottingham tutor






Information About Jonathan:


Personal Description:

I am a 20 year old Student at Derby University, studying Popular Music with Music Technology. I considered friendly and get along with most everyone I meet. I am easy going, yet never at the expense of the task to which I'm charged. I am able to read music, as well as playing the piano, guitar, bass guitar and the drums to at least a beginner level. Music theory I am able to tutor to A Level standard.



Teaching Experience:

At this point, rather minimal I'm afraid. At this point I am trying to build up some experience in the field, but I promise you won't be disappointed. During my final year of 6th Form, I took part in a project aimed to get those in lower years, GCSE level and below, more involved in music and build their confidence. This group performed at several live concerts put on by the School, and was a highly enjoyable and rewarding experience.



Tutoring Approach:

In 2 words; hands on. I understand that the theoretical side of music can be a very tedious study, so I try to make it interesting, and dare I say it? Fun! Using hands on examples using instruments, as well as examples of both popular and classical music, I break the theory down and show how it's applied on a more practical and fun level, even using the student's favourite songs to illustrate the point in an enjoyable way.
