We're all about making session fun for the students (all adults) with the sessions being run typically from pubs, over a pint, where the songs lead and the learning is snuck in.

We're looking for a tutor to run our Ealing classes on a Monday and Wednesday evening and Sunday day time. These classes will be beginner, improver and intermediate level initially.

The Role
- Deliver progressive and inclusive music lessons in a group setting
