Visiting Music Teachers |
Mick Anker |
I have been a professional recording artist / performer since 1983, with plenty of live and recording experience at many levels. Working in the field of pop music, I have performed on UK and international TV shows, including quite a few 'Top of the Pops' (something my students can relate to).
I teach guitar and bass guitar privately.
I have taught guitar at Park Hill School since 2005 and have found this to be a very rewarding environment for myself and my pupils. We have regular opportunities to perform in school services, assemblies, and concerts, and work closely with the school music department.

I have been working at Park Hill since 1993 as a piano teacher. I have taught the piano for over 40 years, including 7 years at a nursery/primary school in Colombo, Sri Lanka. I have also previously worked as an accompanist for singing and ballet classes, and have performed on "Radio Ceylon".
My aim is to help my pupils to realise their musical potential. Learning the piano is challenging but fun, and children gain confidence both through developing this new skill and sharing it with others. I hope to lay the musical foundations upon which may build in the future.

Music has been an important factor in my life from a very young age. I was a member of the Hastings & Rother Music Service for 12 years which gave me opportunities to play in several ensembles at prestige venues including the Royal Albert and Festive Hall as well as touring France, Germand and Italy. I studied at Kingston University for three years finishing with a BMus Hons degree which led to joining an orchestra that appeared on Raido 1 and Sky TV and teaching violin and recorder at Park Hill.
I am now entering my fourth year teaching here and I thorougly enjoy it. The children are enthusiastic and a pleasure to teach therefore are happy to perform to their classmates with confidence. The school offers lots of support and opportunities which allows them to develop what I teach them and encourgaes them to learn by themselves.
BMus (Hons) (Kingston)
