Liam - Newcastle upon Tyne tutor
Information About Liam:
Personal Description:
Liam has been privately teaching for a number of years, for a range of different ages and abilities on Electric Bass and Electric Guitar. He also teaches Music Technology and Music Theory.
Focusing on listening before playing using a range of aural training, his students are keen to learn from his teaching methods despite the stigma attached to more traditional aural exercises. He can work to any syllabus required but has also obtained great results from students who have voiced their dislike for the graded system.
In the year of 2014, two of Liam's Bass Guitar students were accepted onto the prestigious RNCM B.Mus (Hons) Popular Music course, of which there are only around 7 successful applicants a year.
Teaching Experience:
I have been teaching a range of ages and abilities privately for the past 10 years, including preparation for ABRSM Theory, Rockschool Bass and Guitar, RGT Guitar, and GCSE and A-Level Music.
Tutoring Approach:
My approach to tutoring is mainly what the student desires, and keeping things fun and interesting. I focus my teaching on listening before playing, using a range of aural training and awareness techniques which students seem to enjoy despite the stigma attached to traditional ear training. I use popular and current musical examples to help students grasp new concepts and this seems to work well.
