About Andy
Hello! I'm Andy and I'm a third year English Literature BA student at King's College London, where I'm also the musical director for an cappella group! I grew up outside of Watford in the UK, but I moved to Philadelphia in the US when I was nine. Growing up, I loved English class and had some amazing English teachers, who helped me realize my love for that subject. I love to read in my spare time, and some of my favorite authors are Donna Tartt, Jane Austen, Toni Morrison, David Sedaris and Virginia Woolf. I also love studying the different mechanisms of the English language, and understanding why we structure our speech and writing patterns in the way that we do. I see my knowledge of language as an extra tool that lets me delve even deeper into a text and uncover hidden meanings, and I'd love to teach others how to do the same! I really enjoy helping people figure things out by themselves, and watching them build their confidence in their capabilities. I believe that making mistakes should be celebrated - it's an opportunity for you to learn more, and without making and correcting your mistakes it's difficult to learn effectively. I'm very excited to help my students in any way I possibly can, and I'm so excited to see my how my students progress, and to watch them work to achieve their grades!

At the core of my teaching style is an understanding that each person is different - everyone's brain processes information in a different way. In order to help my tutees learn effectively, I open up the (virtual) classroom to be a collaborative space, and establish a mutual respect between myself and whoever I am teaching. I believe that if I do not actively demonstrate respect of my own tutees' capabilities, work and progress, I give my them little reason to engage with or value what I am teaching them. My main goal above all else is to pass on knowledge to people who are eager to learn, while taking their specific needs, goals, and learning style into account every step of the way (and making that as fun and rewarding as possible!) Everyone is different, and it's my job as a tutor to help people find out which learning style works best for them so that our sessions leave my tutees feeling rewarded, fulfilled, and more confident in their own abilities.

Andy is such a wonderful, warm, patient person and I feel very lucky to have found them as my singing tutor. As someone who has only recently come back to singing after many years, I was incredibly nervous to sing out loud in front of another person - preempting lingering feelings of fear and embarrassment from school choir days. However I needn’t have worried as Andy immediately provided an environment of warmth in which I felt encouraged to take small steps, pushing myself within my own existing abilities. They always make sure our lessons are focused around material I truly enjoy singing which has helped me massively in feeling like I’m growing towards my own personal goals. Andy is extremely knowledgable in this field, but never overwhelms you with information. Instead of feeling intimidated, I instead find myself inspired to learn more - and often do end up doing extra practice and research between our classes. They have created the perfect balance of having a productive class in which I feel like I’m progressing and being pushed to my best capabilities, but with much fun and laughter - the simple joy of singing always the priority.
Though we have only connected virtually thus far, this has made absolutely no impact on the quality of our lessons. In fact I find it quite convenient to be able to fit these lessons in to my day-to-day life without the concerns of getting to and from another place - those often having been the easy excuses I made to myself previously as to why I shouldn’t make the time to do something I love. With those removed, I find myself itching for our next tutorial so that I once again feel the joy of escaping from the world for a few hours to enjoy singing in a space I feel truly comfortable in.
If you’re thinking about taking up singing, but like me have concerns about humiliation, or being shaped into a singer you’re not then Andy is the tutor for you. They have taken me as a beginner, and helped me to evolve for my ability and my goals without pushing me to do anything that makes me feel uncomfortable. I feel truly grateful to have had such a wonderful return to singing for me, and I couldn’t recommend them enough.Andy’s experience and love for music is evident when they teach. They bring a relaxed and encouraging vibe to the sessions that make me feel like I’m actually understanding and enjoying at the same time. A very friendly, knowledgeable motivating teacher for sure !!

Andy has been musical director of the choir I sing in for the last year and they’re an amazing teacher! We have a range of different voices and levels of expertise, and Andy manages to bring the best out of everyone’s unique ability with their inclusive and encouraging teaching style.
