From 41 £ /h

The guitar is an excellent instrument to learn and it can be used for many different purposes. You can use it to learn and play your favourite songs. You can also use it to express yourself and write songs. You can even use it as a way to work with other musicians and perform at gigs!

In each class I will teach you about the basics of playing guitar and how you can learn it. I have a strong knowledge of music theory on guitar which I usually try to incorporate into the playing aspect of learning guitar. The benefit of doing this is that it allows you to learn the movements and knowledge behind playing guitar, all while having fun learning a new instrument!

I have an excellent understanding of music theory and how to apply it to the guitar. I also have many years of experience of playing guitar myself and I know the most beneficial direction to take in regards to a students progression over time.

I am very patient, polite and I am very good at adapting to the speed at which different students learn. Each session will be tailored to each individual student, which will help them to achieve their goals.

I am a multi-instrumentalist with guitar being my primary instrument. I also play bass guitar, drums, and sing.
