Online Rock Guitar Tutors
Perhaps your child has hit a wall trying to learn from videos, or their first guitar is gathering dust in the corner. It's hard to watch them get frustrated, especially when you don't know a power chord from a plectrum.
Even when you can't help with the subject, you can still help them. Our Tutor Finder asks a few simple questions about your child and their goals, and we'll recommend the right person to get them playing confidently.

More than learning riffs — it’s about finding their confidence
When your child has someone who actually gets them, practice stops feeling like a chore. Lessons become a space to explore their favourite music, ask questions without feeling self-conscious, and see real progress week after week.
This isn’t just about mastering technique. It's about building creative confidence, developing discipline, and finding a positive outlet — skills that are valuable far beyond music.

Matched to the right tutor — without the guesswork
Our Tutor Finder asks what matters: your child's favourite bands, their current skill level, and what they want to achieve. We then provide a shortlist of tutors we genuinely believe are the right fit. No endless scrolling, just a recommendation you can trust.
We’re very particular about who we recommend. Only 1 in 8 applicants are accepted, so you can be sure they’re not just great musicians, but patient and encouraging teachers who know how to connect with young people.
If the first session isn't quite right, our First Lesson Guarantee means we'll find another tutor for you at no extra charge. The right fit is what matters most.

Paul W
Experienced Guitar Tutor Professional Musician
I'm Paul and I have been teaching electric and acoustic guitar for 27 years. I have worked for Cheshire County Council and Manchester Council for 20 years teaching in various schools.

Nathan W
I've only had 2 lessons so far, but Nate has been fantastic. He's taken an interest in learning what music I am into in order to tailor the lessons to fit what I want to play as well as what I need to learn, and is able to break things down in a simple, easy to understand way. He's really easy to talk to and get along with, and I'm excited to see where my rock journey goes - wholeheartedly recommended!!

Charlie L
My son is 15, he chose GCSE music this year as he really loves music, & has found it difficult. with limited direction.
We chose Charlie, because of his skills in the area we wanted, and reviews, & we were not disappointed.
Charlie is so patient, & a really good tutor, my son was very nervous, & came away with a smile and confidence. It was brilliant how Charlie constructed my sons session around what he needed, we will be definitely be coming back ?

András B
I would highly recommend Andràs as a tutor. I’m a beginner playing the guitar and I’m so relieved to have Andràs as a tutor, since he is so patient, knowledgeable, professional and able to work at my pace. Thanks to Andràs in such short time, I have already grown in confidence with playing the guitar. I look forward to our future sessions.

Perry S
Perry is the best teacher for guitar ever. Perry has such a good style of teaching which allows for the student to learn in such a fun way. His personality is just as good as his guitar skills. He is a great guy, and I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a guitar teacher that can guide them easily through the steps of guitar whether that be the theory or practicality of playing the guitar. A real life example of Perry working his magic is with me. I used to hate guitar and was forced to do it but then I tried to get back into it and since then I’ve never looked back; he has given me not only guitar skills but confidence to play in front of people. So in short, Perry is a high quality guitar tutor and I really can’t recommend him enough!
