Welcome to Aaron's Music School
Hi, I'm Aaron, and I'm passionate about teaching music in a fun and enthusiastic way. With over 25 years of experience as a musician and tutor, I'm dedicated to helping my students achieve their musical goals.
The lessons are held here at my home in Stafford, ST16. I'm also available for online lessons.
I hold an enhanced DBS certificate for working with younger students.
About Me
As an experienced musician and educator, I have a passion for sharing my love of music with others. I've worked as a tutor for over 25 years and have taught privately, and at a university.
As a recording artist I have produced works featured on SKY sports, Nickleodeon, advertising campaigns, online events and independent record labels, including recording and producing an EP at Abbey Road Studios for the indie band, 'Citylightz'.
As a performer I've enjoyed playing in many bands, at functions and provided support for touring artists at venues and festivals, as well as a residency at 'Phonetics', in Sheffield.
I apply my practical experience to my teaching, helping students to develop their skills in a supportive and fun environment.
Examples of my work, published on Ropeadope Records, can be found here:
