Lessons with Merlin Shakaj
Flut’ism is a friendly, patient approach to learning the flute. Merlin tailors every lesson to the person in front of her, whether they are picking up a flute for the first time or returning after years away.
Expect a relaxed atmosphere, clear guidance and music exploration.
What the lesson experience is like
Each lesson starts with where the player is today. Merlin builds confidence step by step, so they leave every session knowing what to practise and feeling encouraged.
Online or in person
Online lessons are available anywhere in the UK. In-person lessons are available locally. [Eynsham,Oxfordshire]
