With over a decade of experience teaching Music and French to a diverse group of over 100 students, I've fine-tuned my teaching style to cater to each student's unique learning needs. Specializing in guitar, piano, violin, drums, ukulele, and music theory, I have orchestrated lessons that strike the perfect balance between educational content and interactive engagement. My students not only excel in mastering musical instruments but also triumph in their French exams, acing assessments like: Cambridge IGCSEs and A levels for the British curriculum, CEFP, DL, TEF, DFP, and CFTH for those in the French curriculum. i am currently working with schools that will have students sitting for their French KCSE this year. Witnessing their progress and passion flourish in both music and language learning has been the most rewarding symphony of my career. Join me on this melodic journey, where together, we'll hit all the right notes and reach new heights in your musical and linguistic pursuits.
