Starting to teach group classes of children aged between 5 - 18, Ashlea moved onto teaching private classes studying ABRSM and Trinty College exams. She specialises in advanced composition, interpretation and expression through Classical and Blues.

Ashlea has taken numerous courses in teaching music and behaviour management so you can feel assured you or your family are in safe hands.

After travelling to Inida to teach Music and English to 300 orphaned children, Ashlea has taught herself to teach by means of fun and engagement, other then just verbally lecturing - as she doesn`t speak a word of Hindi! This has developed her skills to become a driven and inspirational tutor.

Recently, Ashlea has been lucky enough to become a staple teacher with Joyful Sound of Music and A Star Music Education, teaching Piano, Guitar, Theory and Aural. She has joined the Incorporated Society of Musicians and is a registered Teacher-Assessor with ABRSM Music Medals, alongside being accepted onto a Level 4 BTech Certificate in Education and Training, allowing her to teach in colleges and gain her QTS.

Ashlea has taught in all corners of London teaching Jazz, Classical, Blues and Modern music and is enthusiastic to fuse all aspects of formal music training, street music and niche music groups to create a completely unique and diverse teaching method.
