course price icon
From 35 £ /h
arrow icon
As a professional guitarist with years of experience playing many different styles of music, I am able to specialise for each student and the style they want to play. Whether it is Rock, Metal or Acoustic Pop, I am well versed in the various techniques and stylistic sensibilities to help students play what really excites them. And that's the most important thing since music is so subjective!

The student always comes away with a goal for the next meeting so that there is continuity and enforces the importance of everyday practice.
Extra information
Student are advised to have their own guitar, however one may be provided if necessary.

James
A holistic approach ensures that my students are encouraged and inspired to explore all aspects of music making from the very beginning.; active listening, improvisation, composition, ear training and rhythmic skills are used together to help to develop the whole musician and improve instrumental abilities.

I have experience teaching a wide range of people from young beginners to older professionals, and aim to develop the confidence and skills of my students in a safe and inclusive environment. I am happy to work towards grade exams, personal musical goals, conservatoire auditions, original songs/compositions, identifying together which areas we want to develop and work on and providing the necessary tools and resources to further skills. Most of all, I provide a fun and enthusiastic learning environment to make lessons enjoyable for everyone!

Lessons are available at my home in Hunslet or via Skype/Zoom. Teaching at your location will be at a higher rate based on distance and travel time.

I am a Masters qualified professional musician who is currently a senior lecturer at Leeds Conservatoire, and also have 10 years experience teaching a variety of younger age groups through award wining organisations such as Symphony Hall Birmingham, Make The Paint Dance (Leeds) and NOFA.

Prices and subject areas are flexible - please do feel free to get in touch!
