Absolute Beginners
Helpful things to know
before you start

Even if you have some experience playing harp it is really important to still watch these videos as they explain my way of talking, the way I describe music and techniques and it means you will be able to follow the tutorials on playing much more easily. They are a really good way of getting to know me as a tutor. 
You can make the videos bigger on your screen by clicking the arrows in the bottom right corners.
