About Charlie
I recently graduated from LSE with a First Class degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics, and this autumn I'm beginning an MPhil in Economics at the University of Oxford. Music has been a constant alongside my studies — I took it to A-level and achieved an A*, hold ABRSM Grade 8s in Trumpet and Singing, and continue to find it one of the most rewarding things I do. I was previously a chorister in Edinburgh, a secondary school Music Scholar, and currently perform as a freelance trumpet player and singer across London. I enjoy helping students see the logic and structure behind music, which is often what makes the academic side click.
Before university I spent a gap year working as a classroom assistant in a UK prep school and an Australian secondary school, working alongside teachers with students from primary age through to sixth form. That experience taught me how differently people learn and how much a student's confidence shapes their results.
I'm patient, reliable and easy to get on with, and I take the responsibility of tutoring seriously. I always turn up prepared, communicate clearly with students and parents, and genuinely care whether a student improves. My aim is always for a student to leave a lesson understanding something they didn't before, and feeling more capable than when they started.

I'm a recent LSE graduate (First Class, Philosophy, Politics and Economics) heading to Oxford this autumn for an MPhil in Economics. Music has been a serious part of my life alongside my academic work — I achieved an A* in A-level Music and a grade 9 at GCSE, and I hold ABRSM Grade 8s in Trumpet and Singing. I currently perform as a freelance singer and trumpet player across London, and am comfortable across the academic side of music: composition, harmony and theory, set-work analysis, and the listening and contextual understanding these qualifications test. I also spent a gap year working as a classroom assistant in a UK prep school (ages 7–13) and an Australian secondary school (ages 12–18), so I've worked with students across a wide range of ages and abilities in a school setting.
My method is straightforward. I start by finding out where a student is confident and where they're struggling, then work through each area — whether that's writing and developing a composition, getting to grips with harmony and theory, or analysing set works for the listening paper — with clear explanation and steady practice. Music exams reward students who can apply their understanding to unfamiliar pieces and structure their written analysis clearly, so alongside the content I focus on exam technique and how to approach each type of question. I set focused work between lessons and keep track of progress so we always know what to prioritise next.
I teach GCSE and A-level Music across the major exam boards, covering composition, theory, and set-work and listening analysis. Whether the goal is a top grade, developing a stronger composition, or making sense of the theory behind the music, I tailor each lesson to the individual student.
Lessons are typically one hour, with longer sessions available for intensive exam or coursework preparation. Having worked with school-age students day-to-day, I adapt my manner to the age and confidence of whoever I'm teaching.
I'm based in London over the summer and moving to Oxford in late September for postgraduate study; from the autumn I continue to tutor online with more limited availability.
