Happy New Year! 2018 plans at ActuallyAmy HQ

Hi everyone!
This last year has been a deciding time for me. I took some time to think a lot about which direction I wanted to move in, hence the lack of updates on here! Tried some different things and came to more of a place of clarity in my career.
Having come back from travels I did some classroom music teaching for a couple of terms while building up private afternoon/evening teaching in and around south London. 
I decided classroom was not for me and focussed more on instrumental teaching as usual. 
Currently teaching piano in a lovely prep school out in Farnham a day a week as well as private clarinet/piano teaching in the afternoon/evenings Monday-Thursday. In addition to this working on getting more teaching in a London based school.

The most exciting news is hatching finally in 2018... Have been thinking for a long while about doing some form of counselling course and so I've enrolled with a charity called Place2Be, completed their taster day last month and will start Level 2 in Children's Counselling on the 3rd February!
It is part time so I am lucky to have the time to dedicate to study while still doing all the teaching and songwriting alongside. 
I am so excited to start this course and make a difference to young people in a different way... and get my study on again!

Promise to be better at keeping up with blogging in 2018.

With love, 
Amy

TEFL Adventures!



Have decided to take a 'sabbatical' and teach english abroad for the next few months! We're heading to Central America first (Nicaragua and Costa Rica) to teach and then travel round South America. Combining my love of travel and teaching, kind of realised that this is the time to go.

Thank you to each and every one of my students/schools/songwriting groups who have made my job so worthwhile. Enjoy your musical endeavours, I feel glad to have been a part of your musical journey.

With love,

Amy
