I am an orchestra performer with more than 15 years of experience. I offer instrumental tutoring both on violin and on viola, as well as music theory lessons.

I currently have a nice group of private students and most of them have decided to continuing their lessons going through skype and zoom in these challenging times.

You'll learn how to play confidently and with enjoyment, supported by a strong technique. The lessons will be held weekly, I'll give you directions on what books to use and when needed provide for learning material.

I am a guitar teacher with 4yrs experience teaching both privately and for Eric Lindsey Music in Catford. I am also a professional songwriter, performer and recording artist. I am offering lessons in person in Brockley, South East London, or via Zoom, Facetime or any other online video platform. I have graduated with a 1st Class degree in BMus Popular Music from Goldsmiths University of London. I can teach a range of styles including folk, classical, jazz, rock and alternative, pop, punk, and can cater to a range of needs, whether you’re starting grades, want to learn to read music, understand scales/music theory, or want to just learn some songs (or even how to write/perform/record some yourself!). I have experience teaching a range of students of different ages and abilities and will work to make sure the lessons revolve around what you want to learn, whilst improving your playing for the level you are at.

I offer fantastically priced bespoke professional acoustic, electric and classical guitar lessons for players of any ability. Many of my students take graded exams in either contemporary or classical guitar and students who I prepare for exams regularly achieve distinctions. However if the student does not wish to take graded exams I can simply help them learn their favourite songs as well as teaching key techniques to progress in their preferred genres and styles.

I have a DBS certificate and have experience working with students of all ages.

If you have any questions just send me a message.

I currently have numerous happy guitar students, most of whom I have taught from their first time with the instrument.

I can teach right from the first stage, and help with grade exams if that's the route you choose to take. If not, I often do a more modern, non-graded path as well. I'm also equipped to help in passing theory grades, and very knowledgeable about music tech, recording, effects and gear!
