Using music and arts to promote learning for all generations

Amanda teaching children

Hi, I'm Amanda

I've been a primary school teacher for the last 20 years and for some of that time a committed school SENCO and Assistant Headteacher.  

 

Since 2016 I've been providing creative classes that centre around educational learning and holistic development for children and adults.

 

I am passionate about the benefits of music for all ages and the opportunities it provides for inclusion in educational and care settings.

NEWS! We sang for Princess Catherine!

HRH Princess of Wales chose Amanda's Sankofa Songsters intergenerational choir to sing at the Christmas 2024 Royal Service in  Westminster Abbey. Did you see us on t.v.?

What people say about Live The Beat

"The children at our nursery thoroughly enjoy their weekly music class with Amanda, she keeps them engaged throughout the entire session and has a variety of experiences for them to take part in.
 
Amanda makes the whole session so fun and upbeat, the children cannot stop smiling as they are taking part. The children have even been pretending to be "Teacher Amanda" and leading their own Little Beats Music session during their play once she's gone!
 
Amanda has been nothing but a ray of sunshine since she joined us, and her passion and professionalism shine through. We cannot recommend her enough!"
