Flute | Piano | Classical & Contemporary/jazz Composition | Improvisation

Hi! I’m Steph, and I believe music lessons should be inspiring, creative and something students genuinely look forward to each week.

After performing and teaching throughout Australia and overseas—including several years living and performing professionally in Japan—I’m excited to now share my passion with students here in Brisbane. I’ve studied classical music to Masters level with leading teachers from Australia, England and France, and have performed with Celtic Illusion throughout Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong, as well as jazz, Latin and contemporary ensembles and my own original interdisciplinary theatre productions.

My Teaching Style

No two students learn the same way, so I don’t teach every student the same way.

I particularly enjoy working with neurodiverse students and children with different learning styles, adapting lessons to suit each individual’s strengths. Alongside strong technical foundations, lessons may include ear training, singing, rhythm games, improvisation, composition, GarageBand projects and learning favourite songs—because students progress fastest when they’re genuinely excited to practise.

Flute students can choose a traditional classical pathway, AMEB preparation or a more creative approach incorporating improvisation and contemporary styles. Piano students are welcome to explore classical repertoire, pop, chords, accompanying themselves while singing, songwriting or simply learning music they love—developing reading skills naturally alongside practical playing.

Above all, I hope every student leaves each lesson feeling more confident, creative and excited to make music.
