I am an Oxford music graduate (First Class), a qualified teacher (PGCE), and hold a PhD in Musicology. I teach a range of musical disciplines including academic music (GCSE, A Level and degree level), piano, music theory, music technology and composition. I also offer Oxbridge preparation sessions and personal statement support. I have taught in a range of independent and state schools across the UK, most recently leading the music department in a large sixth form college. I currently teach courses on Musicology at the University of Leeds and undertake music tuition and consultancy work for a number of international education firms. I am a GCSE Music examiner and have worked on education projects for the Barbican's Creative Learning division, the One Foundation and Oxfordshire County Music Service.
My academic interests span all areas of music, with particular focuses in composition and music history/appraising. Over the past five years, I have worked with numerous students on their university/conservatoire applications, A Level and GCSE music, EPQ projects and more. My students have gone on to study at Oxbridge, Russell Group universities, and music conservatoires across the UK. In addition to teaching and tutoring, I am an award-winning composer of music for theatre, film and the concert hall. My music has been heard in venues including Wigmore Hall, the Barbican, LSO St Luke's and Abbey Road and Maida Vale Studios, and has been performed by ensembles including the BBC Singers, EXAUDI, PlusMinus Ensemble, the New Music Players and the Cavaleri Quartet.
I hold a First Class degree in Music from the University of Oxford, a Masters in Composition with Distinction from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, and a PhD in Musicology from the University of Leeds. I am a qualified teacher with a PGCE in Secondary Music ("Outstanding") from the University of Buckingham, and hold an Associate Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy (AFHEA). I attained A* A* A in my A Levels (Music, Religious Studies and English Literature). I am the author of peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters, and have presented at multiple international conferences.
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Toby is an excellent musician and tutor. He has a very professional yet down to earth approach in his teaching and his passion for music is both obvious and infectious. It has been a real privilege to have had someone of Toby's ability and character tutor our two children and to contribute significantly to their continuing development as musicians, and we cannot recommend him highly enough.
Toby has taught our 8 year old son the piano for the last year. He has been so encouraging and calm in his teaching approach that he has ensured that our son has remained enthusiastic and practices regularly. Our son really looks forward to his lessons with Toby. Toby is an excellent teacher.
