My name is Jan Steele and I play and teach the saxophone, flute, clarinet and music theory and I'm a composer. I'm a very experienced music teacher with years of experience teaching saxophone, clarinet, flute, music theory and jazz improvization in state and independent schools, colleges, universities, schools of music and privately. Nowadays I confine my music teaching to my home in Caversham, Reading, Berkshire. As well as being a music teacher I am a STAT - qualified teacher of the Alexander Technique which I teach at the Royal Academy of Music in London. I have a full CRB disclosure, and full public liability insurance. I also have DfE Qualified Teacher Status. If you are thinking of having lessons with me and would like to talk to a current (adult) pupil or the parents of a current child pupil first then please contact me. You can have a trial lesson, a few lessons, or a one off lesson with no future commitment. The most important thing to know is this - I aim to make my teaching fun. This is because music is my life and it is the only thing I want to do, and I hope that my enthusiasm for it is transmitted to my students. The most fun to be had from playing a musical instrument is when you work at it, but you don't have to be a musical genius to have fun learning!
I have always enjoyed the experience of teaching people to play a musical instrument, even if they are a complete beginner and lacking in confidence. Most importantly, producing a good sound on a wind instrument really seems to boost a student's confidence, and this is one of the things I really try to focus on from the start.
I have always been self-employed in music since I finished in higher education
Not all my students are high achievers, but I hope that most of them enjoy playing or making music in one way or another. Recently I have had some really big successes, 3 students currently studying at the Royal College of Music Junior Department, one in the National Youth Orchestra, one in the National Childrens' Orchestra, two having just completed 2 years at National Youth Jazz Orchestra Academy have moved on to University/Music College to study music. In music theory, I'm particularly pleased with one student who gained 100% for grade 5, and another who gained 98% for grade 8.
I can teach online provided that the conditions are good (which includes having a good set up at the student's end - a good microphone, speakers or headphones, and camera). However I find that with beginners the best results are obtained with in situ teaching. I can better assess the quality of reeds and instruments when the student is in the same room with me. Teaching music theory online is however much more productive.
Aerating the room, cleaning surfaces, sterilising reeds and mouthpieces.

I am extremely happy with the service provided by River Music. It is easy to arrange lesson dates and rearrange them if necessary. Communication by phone and email is very efficient. I feel I have learnt a lot and made great progress in my piano lessons in a short space of time! My piano teacher is very patient and encouraging. Thank you!
