Max T
Well-rounded tutor of Classical Music and Rock Music
Hello all. I've been playing the piano since I was just 4 years old and took this passion all the way to study music at Manchester University and play at a diploma level. Along the way I've picked up other instruments such as the electric guitar and drums and play in bands regularly. I've also learnt about music technology and have a small studio space at my home which I utilise regularly in my teaching and spare time.All these things I like to think make me a well-rounded musician.On the piano I am classically trained but can also teach about the basics of jazz and blues. My approach lies in not...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Is KS3 Music a real academic subject or just a creative extra?

KS3 Music is absolutely a real academic subject - and a valuable one at that. It’s not just about playing or performing; it develops listening, analysis, composition, and theory skills. These build creativity, discipline, and problem-solving abilities, all of which support progress in GCSEs, A-levels, and beyond.

Does my child need to play an instrument to do well in KS3 Music?

Not at all! While playing an instrument can help, it’s not essential. KS3 Music covers a mix of listening, composing, and understanding different musical styles. A tutor can help your child enjoy the subject from any starting point - whether they’re completely new to music or already experimenting with instruments or music software.

My child already plays an instrument - will KS3 Music still challenge them?

Definitely. Even confident musicians can explore new genres, dive deeper into music theory, and build composition skills that go beyond their main instrument. A KS3 Music tutor can adapt lessons to your child’s ability, introducing them to advanced techniques and keeping them motivated with new challenges and creative projects.

How is KS3 Music assessed, and how can a tutor help?

Music assessments often focus on three key areas - performing, composing, and listening - which can sometimes feel vague compared to other subjects. A tutor can make this clearer by breaking down what’s expected, giving practical feedback, and helping your child understand how to show progress in each area with confidence.

How does technology fit into KS3 Music lessons today?

Modern music education often involves digital tools like GarageBand, Soundtrap, or other composition software. It’s a fun and engaging way to learn how music works! A tutor can help your child make sense of these programs, showing how technology and traditional music skills go hand in hand.
