C R E D E N T I A L S

As a professional music instructor, I specialise in guitar, music theory, music production, mixing, and mastering. I hold a Grade 8 certification in electric guitar and music theory, and have studied under a three-year program in classical music composition at the Birmingham Conservatoire. During my education, I received training in Pro Tools and currently utilise Logic Pro X in my work. I have acquired hands-on experience through shadowing renowned composer Barrington Pheloung during the production of the soundtrack for the ITV show Inspector Lewis, as well as observing a recording sessions with a full orchestra at Abbey Road Studios. I have been proficient in recording software since the age of thirteen, and have received guidance and mentorship from my father, Nik Kershaw, a successful producer who has worked with notable artists such as Elton John, Sia, Gary Barlow, Chesney Hawks, and Bonnie Tyler. My guitar instruction has been under the tutelage of renowned musicians such as Robbie Gladwell, the lead guitarist of Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel, and Geoff Slater, who has not only imparted technical skills, but also the art of effective teaching.
