Tutors in Doornpoort

I am a University-trained Ethnomusicologist and African Drumming instructor holding a BMus music degree from the University of Pretoria. Additionally, I am a qualified rhythm and sound therapist. I have 15 years’ experience in teaching music for ages 2 years up to 60 years of age focusing on individuals with and without learning disabilities. Currently I have my own practice where I use the African drum as an educational, developmental and therapeutic tool. I enjoy working with and developing people of all ages and have lots of knowledge and experience which I can share. I have worked with children and adults with many a learning disability including ADHD, Autism, Language, Communication and Motor disabilities, Sensory Integration difficulties and Hearing Impairment. I have also worked alongside Occupational and Speech therapists as well as Educational Psychologists and continue to work together with them in order to give the best to the clients seeking help. In my time that I taught at schools I regularly had to use the medium of music to assist children in learning subjects such as Maths and Language so I have a well applied general knowledge in how to use music as an overall developmental tool.
