About Ben
I am a mathematics student currently studying mathematics at the University of Aberdeen. I am also a piper with several qualifications in piping (SCQF 6) and experience performing as a solo piper and bandsman in Bucksburn and District Pipe band. I am currently working towards achieving SCQF 7 and 8 piping qualifications along with the Certificate of Pipe Band Musicianship qualification. I also have a background as an NCO in the Boys Brigade.

I have experience teaching at the band level and the individual level. I think that positive reinforcement and patience are key to any teaching. I structure my lessons around short-term achievable goals e.g. teaching Grade 2 repertoire to advanced pupils of the Novice Juvenile band and helping my privately taught pupil work towards achieving his SCQF level 4 qualification in piping. I like to encourage my pupils as much as possible to help them achieve their maximum potential and I am confident in my knowledge of as well as my ability to teach the subject

Details
Can travel to student for face-to-face lessons depending on proximity- will do this via a hybrid system e.g. 3 online lessons a month with 1 face-to-face lesson depending upon COVID restrictions along with the needs of the pupil in question. Travel fees can be discussed depending on the distance from my home to the location in question.
With particular regards to face-to-face lessons cancellation, at least a day's notice will be required to cancel otherwise payment for the arranged lesson will be expected regardless of attendance. Online lessons should ideally be cancelled with again, at least a day's notice but I am not concerned as long as last-minute cancellation does not become a frequent occurrence.
