About Benjamin
I achieved a distinction when studying my masters in Jazz Performance at The Guildhall School of Music and Drama. I also have an extensive amount of gigging experience around the UK performing reguarly in top venies such as Ronnie Scotts as well as expirence performing across the globe for example touring with my band around Morocco and jamming in New York, Malaysia. In my lessons, I draw on both my live experiences playing jazz, R&B, Neo-soul, Funk, Pop and Classical music as well as my studies at one of the UK's top music conservatoires.
During my undergrad, I was awarded a First Class degree along with the following university, professional and departmental prizes:
2015/16 The Rickards Memorial Prize: Awarded for outstanding contribution to improvised music.
2015/16 Performance Prize: Awarded for the highest recital mark in Music.

My lessons are for students of all abilities wanting to learn about harmony and composition. I teach at my piano and will include information on jazz improvisation and jazz harmony if student wants this.
I am a flexible teacher who works with students both on a weekly basis, fortnightly or can do drop in sessions whenever works for the student.
I am very passionate about music and specialise in jazz. I work hard to share this passion with all of my students so they leave each lesson inspired to play, write and listen to more music.
We are all on our own journey of developing as musicians and composers and I aim to be as helpful as I can in guiding my students towards what they want to get out of music.
I am confident that with my wide range of performance experience and sheer passion for the art-form, my lessons will propel students forward and make my lessons that bit more special. I offer our first taster session for free to give you the chance to discuss what it is you are wanting to learn specifically and for me to explain the different things I can offer you as we embark on our teaching and learning journey together.

Classes with Ben really take you to the heart of authentic yoga. That's quite rare here in the west! He teaches with a true passion for helping you improve your overall wellbeing through yoga and it's helped me gain awareness of my body, has improved how I breath and has improved my mental strength too. He is a natural teacher and has a really friendly and calming nature so I felt really comfortable in his classes. I'd recommend for sure!
Benjamin is a very engaging Piano teacher who has a vast knowledge and understanding especially of Jazz and other music genres. He is an incredible performer himself and therefore is a wonderful role model as well as teacher. He keeps you focussed on your goals and motivated to keep learning more and striving to achieve as well as creating fun lessons!
Ben is an excellent jazz musician & and a great teacher, very dynamic and experienced, who brings his youthful enthusiasm and deep knowledge in jazz to every lesson. He is willing to consider exploring with me any new jazz piece that at times I was interested in, tailoring the music on the fly to my capabilities. This made the lessons very exciting, and I learnt a lot more about jazz in the process. I have been a student of Ben for a number of years, and would very much recommend him to any jazz music student. Kosh
Ben was speedy to respond to my request for a lesson for my daughter. The first session was designed to help her relax and understand how the sessions would be going forward. Now she has had 7 lessons with Ben and is loving learning piano. He is patient, knowledgeable and kind. Thank you for all you are sharing with Kiara!
Ben is an extremely kind and attentive tutor who I have known for many years. He has a wealth of performance experience that continues to grow each year and is always happy to pass his advice on to aspiring performers like myself. He has helped me develop a well rounded practise routine and I always look forward to our lessons.
I learnt my scales and basic theory for making music in a more creative way than grades! Ben adapted his style to fit with me! He gave me chord tasks to inspire music, which i then showed the music to him in our next lesson! he liked my music and really supported it, super creative guy :)) thanks Ben!!!! Now i am creating piano scores and working with professional pianists! big luvv
