Experienced Wirral Music Teacher

  • Are you a parent looking for an experienced teacher to work with your child one-to-one and help them develop their skill and aptitude for music in a focused and personalised way?
  • Do you have a child already in music lessons in school and they don’t seem to be progressing or lessons are sporadic and repeatedly cancelled?
  • Are you an adult looking to learn an instrument, learn music theory for the first time, or even build on previous experience?

If this sounds familiar, my music tuition could be just the answer you’re looking for.

I have many years experience of teaching professionally both privately, and in some of the best schools in the North West, with many years entering pupils with great success for the Royal Schools of Music Examinations (ABRSM). I know from experience the numerous benefits of private one to one lessons with:-

Personally Focused Teaching

Momentum and Continuity

Direct Contact with Parents

No Missed School Lessons Due to Inset Days

No Forgotten Instruments or Teachers Cancelling

The Ability to Pick up Extra Lessons out of Term Time When Exams are Approaching

But, way beyond all of that ...

The real pleasure is in introducing music and all the fun it brings in to you or your child’s life.

The priceless skills and experience of learning an instrument and how to express yourself through music is a gift that is life long. With the ability to join music groups, orchestras, choirs, understanding and reading music and even careers in music.

Music brings both joy and endless benefits for life

The uptake of high quality instrumental lessons has sadly been declining in recent years...

I hope to address this trend and encourage more music.

If you are interested and want to find out more I would be delighted to hear from you.

Alison Goulbourne

"I studied under Alison's tuition a number of years ago from age 11. During that time I became an accomplished flautist (Grade 8) and learned to play the piano (Grade 5). Her teaching gave me the confidence to join an orchestra, play at numerous friends weddings and meet new people who shared my love of music.

Alison's teaching style is disciplined yet fun, encouraging and inspiring and I have many fond memories of our lessons together over the years.

I cannot quantify what learning to play an instrument can provide, though I know that excelling in something that you love, that entertains others and that provides confidence has helped me in both my personal life and my career. I attribute much of that to those that influenced me growing up - Alison played a direct role in this with her encouragement and belief in my ability.

Alison is a fantastic teacher and I cannot recommend her highly enough"

Anna,
Flute Grade 8, Piano Grade 5

"Alison is without doubt an excellent music teacher. Having already taught my older daughter the flute, when my younger daughter wanted to learn the piano and flute  there was only one person I wanted to teach her, Alison of course.

My younger daughter has been learning flute and piano now for two years with Alison and is making excellent progress and with her music grades. It has  been a delight to see how my daughter has blossomed from a shy young girl, into a confident person performing solo on both instruments to a packed school hall. Music lessons with Alison have certainly developed that confidence.

Alison is very encouraging, knowledgeable and positive but she also stretches her students to ensure they attain their music grades at the highest level. Alison has inspired my daughter to practice and to challenge herself. As she continues her progress with the flute and piano,  she is about to begin another journey,  learning the saxophone - with Alison of course!"

Jayne,
Parent of 2 daughters learning

"I had the pleasure of going to Alison throughout my childhood learning piano and flute. She is an excellent teacher who is not only trustworthy and knowledgeable but also exceptionally talented.

Her deep understanding of music theory and technique has greatly enhanced my skills as I made Grade 7 Piano and Grade 5 Flute. Her trustworthy guidance has made each lesson a rewarding experience.

Her talent as a musician is truly inspiring, and she consistently brings out the best in her students. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking to improve their musical abilities."

Nikki,
Flute Grade 5, Piano Grade 7

"Alison, a massive thank you for the past 7 years! I owe you for all the skill I have and a huge chunk of my general music knowledge and ability. Thanks not just for getting me through those grades but for the fact I can get involved in so many groups/bands through playing the clarinet. It's great fun. Grade 8 Merit!"
