Read what Sheila's students say about her.
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 herself
recently attained her 8th ABRSM Grade 8 qualification.
You can read more about that on the
About Sheila page.
During her career, Sheila has entered many hundreds of pupils
for more than 400 ABRSM examinations. She is rightly proud of her
student's pass rate of over 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 desire Sheila heartily endorses.
A Practising Musician
Sheila was Principal Cellist with the
Chandos Symphony Orchestra
for 25 years and is now Concert Manager for the
orchestra. She
has played organ for services and concerts in many
churches across the West Midlands and having been Assistant
Organist at Pershore Abbey for eight years and
subsequently Director of Music there, Sheila is an
experienced Choir Master in both sacred and secular
music.
