Will M
Experienced guitar teacher Guitar Guitar & music teacher
I have over 5 years of teaching experience, mainly in person, but also online. I am a 1-1 music tutor and teach both acoustic and electric guitar. The format of my lessons is very basic, but it works. We start off a normal lesson by playing some warm up exercises. After that, work on whatever your goal may be (a new song, music exam, learning about the guitar etc). I will provide material for us to work through if you aren't sure on the next direction to go in and improve your overall playing. You will never feel pressured in one of my lessons and they are kept light-hearted and fun. The first...

Martin K
Native Guitar Tutor Beginner / Intermediate / Advanced
Hello, my name is Martin, and I am here to shake up your idea of learning! I work in a SEND environment which I consider my specialty as I love designing learning games to play and finding alternative ways of approaching education. That is rewarding for students who had a bad experience in education, however, it is something that is something all students commonly enjoy.With hundreds of students over the past 10 years, a vast majority passed their exams or reached their ambitions in learning and speaking German. I credit this success to the fact that my main ambition is to make learning a fun,...

Teaching, for me, goes beyond just encouraging practice and good technique.I'm here to help you become a fully-fledged musician, not just someone who can play other people's music. Whether you're starting out or looking to refine your skills, I'm passionate about teaching how to play in a band setting, and how to collaborate with other musicians.

George E
I'm new to Tutorful and just checking it out. My guitar playing has always been kind of uncomplicated and I've always been lazy with learning theory. George was exactly the tutor I needed to remedy this. He was well-prepared, covered exactly what I wanted to know about, and explained it very clearly. He was also very patient and really went the extra mile to make sure we got through everything he had planned even though I ran late (which won't happen again!).
I am not sure that I will actually stick with online lessons on Tutorful as I'm finding the platform rather buggy and tricky to use, but I don't want to go without recommending George. I would even prefer to do in-person lessons with him if I can make it work with my schedule
