Tutoring near Keperra, Brisbane, QLD


About

I'm currently a second-year student at the Queensland Conservatorium of Music, majoring in Composition. I have a year of experience in instrumental teaching (2022), though I took a break from teaching to focus on my studies and instrument practice in 2023. I have a GPA of 6.1, and received a credit in performance of Viola at AMEB 8 level. At the Conservatorium, you are assessed on academic writing, practical examinations, and original compositions, so I make myself available to teach any of these disciplines depending on the needs or desires of students. I am open to discussing the creative goals of students, no matter how unorthodox. I teach all years of high school English, academic writing, and creative writing, Academic writing for classroom visual arts, music, and music extension. Music composition and songwriting in classical, avant-garde, indie, or R&B styles. Viola and violin up to AMEB 5 level, and beginner/preliminary cello and guitar. I moved from the Sunshine Coast to Brisbane last year, and can now do home visits in Keperra and surrounding areas like The Gap, Ferny Grove, Ashgrove, Enoggera, Everton Park, Alderley, or Windsor. QCE grades for subjects I teach: English - 94 Visual Art - 97 Music - 97 Music Extension - 95 My previous employer wrote the following: To whom it may concern, I am writing to recommend Oscar Nicholson as an employee. He has spent over a year working as a private strings tutor for our organisation, Coast Academy of Dramatic and Musical Arts, taking both individual and small-group lessons. During this time he reported directly to me as administrator. Oscar is unfailingly courteous and polite to clients, enthusiastic about the art of teaching, and willing to step in on short notice to fulfil the needs of our students. He is a punctual and trustworthy individual with a positive attitude and friendly sense of humour. We will miss him on the Sunshine Coast, and I would not hesitate to hire him again in the future. Sincerely, Naomi Craddock
