About Tom
I am an electronic music producer with multiple releases on Spotify and other streaming platforms, including collaborations with artists internationally.
I have been making music for over 20 years, first in my teens, writing songs on guitar and piano, and then in my twenties when I began exploring electronic music production with software such as Garageband, Logic and Ableton Live.
I love making music! Now in my thirties I still write songs on guitar, compose classical piano pieces, and create electronic music most days. I often hear music in my head and feel an immense satisfaction from being able to translate that into real sounds quickly and effectively. I am also a big believer in showing up and making music regularly, even when you don't have any immediate ideas - I love using creative exercises and games to keep a rhythm going with my musical output.
I especially love helping other people to find their creative inspiration and develop the technical skills to express themselves musically - I find this extremely rewarding and it's one of my great passions.
I have been using Ableton Live exclusively for over 5 years and this is the software I use for my lessons. I am passionate about using stock Ableton instruments and effects since in 90% of cases any sound can be achieved using native Ableton devices, without relying on third party (often paid) plugins.
More recently, I have been exploring video creation inside Ableton Live using the Videosync suite of video instruments and effects, and having fun utilising AI and generative tools to spark creative ideas.

I am very person-centered. I will listen to your motivation behind our lessons and any doubts, fears and goals you have.
Your lessons will be built around you and will be relaxed, dynamic and fun. In our first (free) initial chat, we can discuss what you're looking for from your lessons and how we can design them around you. Maybe we will:
- Work on a track for a few lessons so you can get it over the finish line
- Use lessons to create new track ideas every week
- Learn all of Ableton's stock devices one by one
- Cover specific musical questions or challenges you've had recently
- Set specific music challenges and review progress
- Any combination of the above, or something else entirely!
I'm experienced enough to know our learning plan will develop alongside you. I'm excited to learn more about you, and enable you to work towards where you want to be as a musician and producer.
I am especially skilled and passionate in the following areas:
- Going over the basics of Ableton Live patiently and building your skills from the ground up.
- All Ableton Live functionality from beginner to advanced users, any edition of Live (Intro, Standard or Suite)
- Making the most of stock instruments, audio effects and MIDI effects that come with Ableton Live, including Live 12.2 device updates
- Live 12 MIDI transformation and generation tools
- Live 12 browser tips and tricks
- Sound design techniques
- Composition techniques and exercises
- Workflow optimisation
- How to find your unique musical style
- Using generative tools and AI to spark your creativity
- Effective collaboration including file sharing and versioning tips
- Useful (and free) Max for Live devices
- Adding interest and depth to your compositions and/or sound design
- Music theory basics and how to make theory work for you
- Tips, advice and processes for completing tracks
- How to upload tracks to share with others e.g. to SoundCloud or Samply
- How to release your tracks on Spotify, Apple Music and other streaming platforms
- Social media promotion tips and advice
- Making music videos for free and uploading to YouTube
- Video composition within Ableton Live using Videosync (paid)
Some things I'm not so experienced in, so might not be the best teacher for:
- Recording and mixing vocals or live instruments
- Physical hardware and latency
- Advanced music theory
- Mastering
- Live performance (I can offer some advice but have limited practical experience)
I am happy to provide recordings of all lessons and I also provide discounts for bulk booking lessons.
Note lessons are 50 minutes (not 1h as stated on Superprof) as I usually have back to back meetings so leave gaps in-between. This ensures I have time to prepare before your lesson and give you my full focus.
Please note I have mainly used Superprof for my web development lessons, and a separate platform for music lessons. I'm now using Superprof for both, but it means most of my recommendations below are for the web development lessons!

I've worked with Tom for several months. He is extremely knowledgable in web development which is incredibly reassuring to any student. Moreover, a bonus to his lessons is the fact that he is a CEO of a web agency, giving the student an insight to the working world of software development and discuss how to be more employable. I would highly recommend Tom to anyone wanting to learn Web Development and looking for a career in the industry.
If you are looking to supercharge your career in web development and php programming, I would highly recommend Tom as a tutor. He is very knowledgeable, patient and reliable. We have a regular weekly lesson targeted specifically to the areas of php programming that I need to learn to support my business. I feel confident that I can apply what I have learned on my own and each week I look forward to learning something new.
I’ve worked with Tom for a number of years now. He’s a skilled web developer with a lot of experience, who now runs a web development agency so has a good understanding of how web development is used in the real world. Tom is patient and a great teacher.
Tom was my boss at my first dev job, and I would recommend him as a tutor to anyone! He is patient, knowledgeable, and extremely passionate. You will learn so much!
In the 3 and a half year I have known Tom he has taught me a wide range of skills. He's always pushing me to accomplish more and broaden my skill set. He is supportive and nurturing and above all extremely patient!
I've worked alongside Tom for over 7 years, he's knowledgeable and creative, but more importantly very supportive and caring. I've known a good number of web developers and Tom remains the most skilled in HTML/CSS, with high attention to detail and a depth of experience.
