Music in Schools

Apart from giving private lessons in her own home, for many years, Sheila has taught in various schools in the Worcester and Evesham areas.

Children attending these schools have the opportunity to benefit from expert one-to-one tuition in Cello, Double Bass, Piano and Theory of Music.  A list of the schools Sheila visits and the area she teaches in can be found here.

For Qualifications or Fun

Sheila is skilled at bringing her students up to grade level and many pupils have enjoyed remarkable success in ABRSM (Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music) musical grade examinations. Sheila's pupils who choose to take examinations have enjoyed a pass rate of 97%.  However, this is not to say examinations are a requirement - far from it. Many of Sheila's pupils have no intention of taking the route to a musical qualification but play entirely for their own, and others' enjoyment.

A Practising Musician

As a practising musician, Sheila is Principal Cellist with the Chandos Symphony Orchestra, she also plays chamber music at weddings and celebrations around Worcestershire and has played organ for services and concerts in many churches across Worcestershire.  Sheila is an experienced Choir Master and a published composer.
