Victoria

I am a graduate from Trinity Laban Conservatoire with a First Class Honours degree and the Vivian Prindl Outreach Prize. During my BMus performance course, I specialised in flute playing and music teaching. Depending on your preferences, I can teach both online and in person. I am a friendly, hardworking and creative individual with a passion for all things music. I enjoy all genres and can play and teach anything from contemporary to Baroque and also regularly play other instruments in the flute family (Piccolo, Alto flute and Bansuri).
I began my musical journal at the age of 8 studying both flute and piano. By age 15 I had gained a place in Bristol Pre-Conservatoire and a seat in the Bristol School`s Philharmonia Orchestra, where I progressed to principal flute within a year. At age 16 I got awarded the prestigious title of Bristol City Wait, a position as the official minstrel for the Mayor of Bristol for the duration of a year during which I played in the Colston Hall, St George`s and the Lord Mayor`s Chapel. Further to this, I have previously been invited to play with the Orchestra of the Swan.
Whilst in London, I have learnt under Susan Milan, Fiona Kelly, Eliza Marshall and Christopher Green. As part of my BMus course, I have also been specialising in music teaching for the past 2 years.
Currently I am principal flute of the Cinematic Syncopations Orchestra, FlautingIt, and a flute, harp and viola trio.
Alongside my playing and instrumental teaching, I am also passionate about community music. I have previously helped run the MusicOnWheels bus, Animate Online and I have even created my own courses as Notate Create Innovate.

I currently hold an Enhanced DBS.

Experience: From a young age, I was involved with teaching others and sharing my love for music, leading flute ensembles at my school and helping younger students with their studies. I then went on to work in a primary school as a lunch time supervisor and have volunteered in church primary groups.
Last year, I participated in a collaborative arts projects in a local special needs secondary school. I went in once a week to work with them on their music and creative skills which culminated in a performance at the end of the term.
I have spend the last 2 years specialising in music teaching and have experience teaching one-to-one private tuition with varying ages of student. Recently, I have joined the Lewisham Music team and now teach across 4 different primary schools in the Lewisham borough. I teach a combination of whole class recorder, small group flute and small group clarinet as well as private woodwind tuition.
I currently have a 100% distinction rate for flute exams.
