For a student in Hereford, with the inspiring presence of the Hereford College of Arts nearby, building these foundational skills is key. A great tutor helps your child move beyond just copying songs to understanding how music works.

The Right Support to Turn Passion into Skill
Your child's musical taste is the key. That's why our tutors don't just teach from a dusty old book; they start with the music your child already loves. Whether it's rock, pop, or acoustic folk, they use those favourite songs as a gateway to learning essential techniques, scales, and music theory. Because we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, you can be sure you're connecting with a passionate expert who knows how to make learning feel relevant and exciting. Imagine a lesson that’s completely built around your child. One week they might be breaking down a tricky solo they've been struggling with, the next they could be exploring songwriting structures. This is where real progress happens – in those moments where a tutor sees what your child needs and adapts the lesson instantly. It's how your child goes from feeling stuck to feeling that brilliant spark of understanding and achievement. And it all happens online, fitting perfectly around your family's life in Hereford. There's no travel, no rushing to lessons after school – just high-quality, focused tutoring from the comfort of your own home. Online learning means your child can connect with the perfect specialist from anywhere in the UK, giving them access to expertise that might not be available locally. It’s flexible, convenient support designed for modern families.

Max T
Well-rounded tutor of Classical Guitar and Rock Guitar
Hello all. I've been playing the piano since I was just 4 years old and took this passion all the way to study music at Manchester University and play at a diploma level. Along the way I've picked up other instruments such as the electric guitar and drums and play in bands regularly. I've also learnt about music technology and have a small studio space at my home which I utilise regularly in my teaching and spare time.All these things I like to think make me a well-rounded musician.On the piano I am classically trained but can also teach about the basics of jazz and blues. My approach lies in not...

Jonah S
Jonah is very easy to work with. He seems to genuinely be interested in helping me and my progress . He challenges without being pushy, and in the short time I’ve spent with him, I’ve already grown as a guitarist. He also has a wide range of knowledge in every area that pertain to me producing my own music. Very highly recommended!

Jonathan W
Jonathan is an excellent guitar tutor. I started with Jonathan as a complete beginner and I feel that I am progressing with each session. Each session Jonathan goes through, theory, answers questions and reviews what I have been practicing over the previous week. At the end of each session Jonathan documents what I need to work on over the next week. He offers encouragement and always has multiple hints, tips and advice to improve my guitar playing. Jonathan is very patient and has a passion for guitar playing. I would highly recommend him as a tutor, whether you are a beginner or more advanced.

Farrokh K
Farrokh has been a great electric guitar teacher to me for the last 4-5 weeks. In the hour that the lesson lasts, i believe i learn just enough so i can practice for the rest of the week. I started taking lessons with Farokh because i always wanted to know how to play an instrument, moreover i picked music for my GCSEs which i will be starting in September. The pace of the lesson is never necessarily too fast or too slow, if so i can just ask to slow down. Overall, i really recommend! :-)

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child might consider Hereford College of Arts one day. Can a tutor help build a strong foundation for that?
Absolutely. Many of our specialist music tutors can help your child build a robust foundation in both practical technique and music theory, which are essential for further education in the arts. They can help foster the discipline and understanding needed to pursue their creative talents more seriously.
Our school in Hereford focuses on classical instruments. Can an online tutor bridge that gap for guitar?
This is exactly where online tutoring shines. We connect students in Hereford with tutors across the UK who specialise in contemporary instruments like electric and acoustic guitar. They can provide the focused, modern tuition in technique and theory that complements school music lessons and nurtures your child's specific passion.
Is learning a practical instrument like guitar online really effective?
Yes, it's incredibly effective! Tutors use high-quality video and audio, often with multiple camera angles to show hand positions clearly. They can share tabs, sheet music, and theory notes on-screen instantly. It's a focused, one-to-one environment where your child gets the tutor's full attention.
My child is interested in songwriting too. Do you have tutors for that?
We do. Many of our Guitar tutors are also experienced songwriters and composers who can teach music theory, chord progressions, and song structure. It's a fantastic way for your child to develop their creativity beyond just playing. Just use the filters when you search to find a tutor with this skill.
What if my child doesn't click with the first Guitar tutor we try?
It's really important that your child and their tutor get on well. If the first lesson isn't the right fit, please email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will be happy to cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor to ensure you find the perfect match.
How do you ensure your tutors are qualified and safe to work with my child?
We take safety and quality very seriously. Every tutor on our platform has been interviewed and has had their ID and qualifications verified by our team. They also undergo a background check. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply.
What styles of guitar can my child learn online?
Our tutors cover a huge range of styles! Whether your child wants to learn acoustic, electric or even bass guitar, and play anything from rock and pop to jazz, blues or folk, you can find a specialist tutor to match their interests. You can check each tutor's profile for their specialisms.
Do we need any special equipment for online guitar lessons?
It's very straightforward. All your child needs is their guitar, a laptop or tablet with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. The tutor will guide you through everything else in the first session.
Can a tutor help my child prepare for music grades like Rockschool?
Yes, many of our tutors are experienced in preparing students for formal music qualifications, including Rockschool, Trinity Rock & Pop, and RGT exams. This can be a great way to structure learning and provide a clear goal for your child to work towards.
How much do online Guitar tutors cost?
The price of tutoring varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Our tutors set their own rates, so you can easily find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden costs.
How long are the sessions and how often should my child have them?
Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually ideal. Most students find that a regular weekly lesson provides the best momentum for learning and making consistent progress. However, you can arrange a schedule that works best for your family directly with your chosen tutor.
What styles of guitar can my child learn online?
Tutorful offers tutoring in over 300 subjects. From core academic subjects like Maths, English and Science for GCSE and A-Level, to languages, coding, and other creative arts, we're here to support your child's learning journey, whatever their interests.
