Bagpipe Tutoring

BAGPIPE LESSONS

 

I have been playing the pipes for 8 years and am experienced at teaching others how to play.  As few schools offer bagpipe lessons, and as most other pipers are typically much older, I am dedicated to bringing a youthful energy and mentorship to my teaching, as I encourage other young people to take up the pipes.

As a University student, I am afforded flexibility in my schedule and am able to teach students after school or work; and before or after band practice should you decide to join.

  • Engaging, motivating
  • Good communicator and mentor
  • Have Blue Card – working with children check
  • Can conveniently travel to your home for lessons
  • Lessons and the process of teaching bagpipes are catered to each individual student – dependent on age, level, skill, time, etc
  • Lessons are from 30 minute to 1 hour duration
  • Your own bagpipes are not necessary to commence lessons
  • I offer a bridge from sparking what may be an initial interest in playing bagpipes, to introducing my students to Gold Coast Tweed Pipes and Drums band membership and community
  • Ability to apply for St Andrew’s Scottish Society Bursary for instrument sponsorship
