Before joining Scott's Bass Lessons, Philip was a quintessential part of London's 'Institute of Contemporary Music and Performance’ bass faculty. Not only a senior lecturer, his commissioned course writing enveloped a vast array of academia - ranging from Part Time and Diploma programmes, to Bachelors and Masters Degree materials.
​
The success and quality of his materials resulted in an international decoration from The Players School of Music, in Florida: awarding him a ‘Certificate of Academic Excellence’ in response to ‘on going dedication and devotion to music’. Scott Devine describes him as "a natural born teacher", Jeff Berlin heralds him as "one of three go-to tutors in Europe".

One2One Remote Lessons
‘With Bass In Mind’ is vibrant platform with so much more on offer than just ‘One2One Remote Lessons’!
For starters, there’s an entire discord community which exists, monthly Q&A sessions and Masterclasses to attend, as well as a whole range of WBIM products to absorb; ranging from signature basses to preamps and the infamous ‘Chord Tone Concepts’ book series.
Here’s some basic information to get you up to speed...
The Lessons:
A high definition, multi-cam recording of each lesson will be supplied, along with an array of bespoke support materials in the form of .pdfs. Whilst you practice, you’ll have access round-the-clock support, before the time comes for you to submit a progress video to gain even further constructive feedback.
Individual 60mins lessons cost £40 (GBP)
Prepaying for four lessons qualifies you for a discount: 4x60mins lessons = £150 (GBP)
All payments are made through PayPal (for both buyer and seller protection).
​
Scheduling Your Session:
Once payment is confirmed, With Bass In Mind will give access to Calendly where you will be able to book your preferred lesson time and day.
​
All sessions are held on Zoom; please download the software at your earliest convenience: https://www.zoom.com
​
Lesson Cancelation Policy:
Cancelations made less than 24 hours prior to the lesson must be paid in full, they are not moveable, or refundable.
Cancelations made prior to this 24-hour window can easily be moved, or indeed refund upon request.
The WBIM Alumni:
Once you’ve booked your first lesson, you’ll officially be part of the With Bass In Mind alumni, and granted access to our discord forum.
Inside the forum you’ll be able to meet likeminded students, receive around the clock student support through messenger, contribute to a range of debates, and also be invited to our free monthly Q&A sessions, as well as a range of subsequent Webinars.
Misc Information:
All sessions are recorded and distributed for private use only.
You are not permitted to share and/or post any visual data, audio, or documentation on social media, or third-party platforms.
This action will result in the immediate cancelation of all further bookings, with no refund.
As part of your learning pathway, all students are required to video themselves on a regular basis.
To meet this requirement, you may wish to familiarize yourself with YouTube. You’ll need an account, as well as the ability to publish private videos (this will require you to post your submissions as 'unlisted' and select the 'not for kids' setting, so that I will be able to view your content and leave constructive feedback whilst simultaneously keeping it out of the public eye).
​
Thank you so much for your support of small businesses.
I’ll look forward to hearing from you soon!
