“Nathan is a fantastic teacher who is very patient and encouraging. I’ve found myself progressing much faster in my saxophone lessons than with any other teacher I’ve tried previously, and he is always supportive and constructively critical. I would definitely recommend Nathan to anyone looking for a saxophone teacher. Thanks!”

Want to start saxophone lessons?

That’s great news, and I should especially say thank you for your interest in my teaching website! The saxophone is a brilliant instrument to learn and so much fun to play.

I can offer 6 options for tuition, suitable for whether you are a complete beginner, intermediate or advanced level player. These lessons can be either online (using the Skype or Zoom platforms) or face-to-face lessons at my studio in Croydon, South London.

To clarify, the options for lessons (with their main features) are as follows: –

“Working around my abilities, Nathan helped me get back on track and start improving my playing once again after I had gone through a particularly difficult plateau in my learning. After every lesson I came away feeling more positive and confident, and after two years of his help I came away from university with a first. He is an excellent player, a kind and understanding teacher, and I would thoroughly recommend him to anyone wishing to learn the saxophone.”

Thinking of studying a Music Degree?

I have been Professor of Saxophone at London College of Music since 2011, teaching both undergraduate and postgraduate students on the Music Performance course.

Firstly, London College of Music has world class teachers, great facilities, and fantastic ensemble and performance opportunities available. However, I should also point out that LCM has a fantastic community of staff and students which is inspiring, diverse and international in nature. In short, LCM an be an excellent place to study!

I am thrilled that upon graduating from their degree courses around 90% of my saxophone students either go into the music profession or continue their studying at LCM or other institutions.

“Nathan has been a great tutor during my BMus saxophone degree at LCM. His methods and teaching techniques helped me in numerous ways, not only to become a good teacher but to also have the confidence to perform live.”

Give it a go!

Playing music can be one of the great joys in life and moreover, the saxophone is one of the most versatile and popular instruments to learn. There is a wealth of fantastic pieces written for the sax spanning practically every genre of music, so there really is something for everyone.

If you want to learn a new skill, or perhaps you are looking a teacher who will present you with a new challenge, I believe having saxophone lessons can and should be a truly rewarding experience for both student and teacher, so let’s do it together!
