Music Lessons ~ Peripatetic lessons
Here at Landscove, we are pleased to offer a variety of peripatetic instrument lessons (peri lessons) for children in Key Stage 1&2. This is a wonderful opportunity for children to expand their music knowledge and learn a life-long skill. Learning an instrument improves several everyday key skills for children. For example: patience, responsibility, self-esteem, increases memory capacity as well as embeds key maths skills.
Music also serves as a means of self-expression and is a fabulous in giving us a sense of achievement and wellbeing.
Peri lessons take place during the regular school day so please be aware that your child may miss part of a lesson. Due to popular demand, some peri teachers run lessons through lunchtime, however, lessons will never take up all your child’s lunch break.
Lessons currently offered include:
Simon Scott is also a peripatetic music tutor and offers guitar and ukulele lessons for individuals or small groups. If you are interested in a free taster session, please contact Simon as below.
Recorder Lessons
Recorder lessons are offered in school to give children a range of musical skills that will give them a foundation for lifelong musical enjoyment. These include reading music, understanding note values and rhythm, developing listening skills, and singing to pitch, as well as finger coordination and dexterity.
I teach to the standard of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) examining board, which opens up the option to gain the ABRSM grades 1-8. These grades carry UCAS points, which are helpful for securing university places after secondary school. I also teach flute to children who have already begun to read music.
If you would like your son or daughter to take up recorder lessons (minimum age 6), or flute lessons, please contact me to discuss:-
