Hello from Alex – Performing Arts Teacher

Hi, I am the current Performing Arts teacher.  I completed my Primary school teacher training in the UK and worked as a Performing Arts teacher in the South West of England.  I have spent the last year teaching Music in a large British International School in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam.  I am now establishing myself in Melbourne and am keen to share my international experience in the Australian classroom.

I am passionate about music education and encouraging all children to learn a musical instrument and find their singing voice.  The cello is my main instrument.  At the age of eighteen, I moved to London to complete a Music degree at Goldsmiths College, University of London.  I explored various genres and compositions and was introduced to a wide range of ensembles and musicians. Because of this, I spent a number of years working as a session musician in London playing concerts and contributing to a variety of recording and live music projects across Europe.

In my spare time, I love to play music with others, cook and surf!

If your child is keen to learn an instrument then please let me know. I will be in the Music Room Monday-Wednesday so please feel free to come in and meet me.

Please follow this blog to see what your child is learning in their lessons with me and in Ripponlea Choir Club.
