In addition to working privately, he has taught at several schools across London, including Emanuel School Battersea, More House School Knightsbridge, and West London Free School Hammersmith.

About the lesson

Your first lesson

In your first lesson, Oliver will discuss what your goals are in your musical journey, and what you would like to gain in your tuition. This might be to prepare for a specific graded exam, to be able to confidently sight-read, or prepare a set list for an upcoming concert.

After this conversation, if the student has had previous experience, he will ask to hear a piece or portion of a piece representing the level at which the student currently performs. Oliver will then introduce exercises and repertoire appropriate to the level of the student. Oliver understands that every student is unique and is keen to find the best way to communicate.

Piano

Oliver has had experience teaching students of all availabilities, often working with beginners, and recently taking two pupils through to their ATCL diploma exams. He has a 100% pass rate for over 60 graded examinations he has guided pupils through.

Oliver’s holistic approach to piano education includes:
- Encouraging a strong ability to read music and sight reading.
- Ensuring that the technique is carefully looked after, with a focus on relaxed wrists.
- Making sure that at all points of their tuition, students are able to play the music they love.

For more advanced students, Oliver has significant experience in preparing diploma-level pianists, having performed much of the repertoire himself for recitals across the UK.

Music Theory

Oliver is an advanced theorist, having obtained a first-class degree from the University of Cambridge studying musicology. He believes that Music Theory can be taught in an exciting manner, using examples from students’ favourite music to highlight theoretical concepts.

Conducting

As a conductor, Oliver has worked with several of the top ensembles in the U.K. He has studied with Martyn Brabbins (Music Director, English National Opera), Jonathan Heyward (Music Director, Baltimore Symphony Orchestra), Stuart Stratford (Music Director, Scottish Opera), and George Jackson (Music Director, Amarillo Symphony Orchestra). He works with students on score study techniques, fluency of gesture, and how to rehearse effectively.
