Jennifer King

DipMusEd Fellowship of the Collegiate of Music Teachers JP

Jennifer King is a NSW Conservatorium/Sydney University trained graduate (having studied piano with Nancy Salas) & an accredited Music educator. An experienced studio teacher who offers lessons in piano, musicianship, theory & composition, as well as tutoring on any aspect of the HSC (Music 2, Extension and Music 1) Courses & I.B.

Piano & theory options:

My passion for teaching music is grounded in technique and understanding of musical style and structure, while aiming that each student develops a love of music and reaches their full potential so becoming a richer person from studying the art of music-making. Whether students are preparing formal examinations, or beginning pianists (young or adult) it is the joy of music making that underpins my teaching philosophy and methodology. Both AMEB and Trinity Courses are offered for students wishing to prepare for external examinations. I also teach the AMEB & ABRSM theory & musicianship syllabi, all grades (including advanced levels) are available.

HSC & IB senior Coaching:

As a retired Head Teacher of Music, Senior HSC Examiner, and member of the NSW Board of Studies Music Syllabus Committee, I am especially aware of the syllabi requirements. My experiences in HSC preparation mean that I am in high demand with many of the most prestigious private and public school's music departments, assisting them with Trial HSC Performance Examinations, marking of Compositions and Musicology essays. My HSC students consistently nominated for encore (all areas) gaining marks in the top 10% of the state across the 3 courses.
I now offer same support for IB (International Baccalaureate) courses & had similar successes.

Preparation of students for Tertiary Music Entrance Test & General knowledge (any instruments) specialing in advanced grades & diplomas.

Tertiary support:

I also teach composition and musicology and am available for proof reading of tertiary theses, as well as mentoring support in preparation for masters & doctorate degrees.
