Tell us about your first Ingenium experience...
"In summer 2012, I took part in the very first Ingenium Academy. Originally living in France, my first time away from home for three weeks wasn’t the easiest experience; what I took away, though, outweighs it by far.
My Ingenium Academy experience was eye-opening, highly inspirational and beneficial to my musical career. It helped to make one of the best decisions of my life which was to come and study music in the UK.
Meeting like-minded musicians from all over the world and receiving tuition from world renowned musicians was an unforgettable and enriching experience both musically and personally."
What made you decide to return as Pastoral Staff?
"Ever since I finished the course in 2012, I have always told myself I would love to go back as a staff member. I think an amazing music course like the Ingenium Academy would not be the same if it wasn’t for its great members of staff. The quality of care and tuition I received during my time in Winchester was outstanding. All staff members were available, helpful, caring, motivating, happy, fun and engaging with all of the students at all times."
