Hi! I'm a 19y/o multi-instrumentalist originally from Leicester, but currently studying in Sheffield (UoS). I play the piano, drums, ukulele and guitar, and I would LOVE to share my knowledge and passion with other aspiring musicians. Whilst being classically trained, I am also nine years self-taught. Without cutting any corners, I’ve managed to successfully combine many different teaching methods I found useful to train both my mind and my ear. I can now play almost any song I hear just by using my ear. As a solo instrumentalist and the musical director of Sheffield's premier acappella group: Steelworks Acappella, I've competed in regional and international competitions, winning the 2018 Tracy Music Award, placing first twice in Rotary competitions, and placing third in the ICCA quarter-finals 2026.

Hi! My name's Rish, and I'm a 19-year-old multi-instrumentalist and student originally from Leicestershire. I'm currently studying Philosophy at the University of Sheffield, and I am the musical director for Sheffield's premier a cappella group: Steelworks A Cappella. Around nine years ago, I stopped having piano lessons and have, ever since, taught myself. Without cutting any corners, I have successfully managed to combine many different teaching methods I found useful to train both my mind and my ear. I can now play almost any song I hear just by using my ear, and I’d love to share my knowledge with as many other aspiring musicians as I can. In my free time, I love practising, playing and performing, whether that's in small gigs or international competitions (such as Varsity Vocals' International Championship for Collegiate Acappella). I won the 2018 Tracy Music Award, the 2020 and 2022 Regional Rotary Band Competition and placed 3rd in the 2026 ICCA quarterfinals. I am also incredibly passionate about English and Religious Studies/Philosophy. On MyPocketSkill, I would be more than happy to teach the piano, drums, ukulele and guitar; tutor English, Business and Religious Studies to an A-level standard (I achieved A*s in all of these); or English and Religious Studies at GCSE standard.
