The Right Support to Make Their Guitar Skills Shine

Finding a tutor who understands your child’s goal is everything. This isn’t just about learning songs; it’s about crafting a path towards a recognised qualification. Our tutors get to know your child as an individual – what music excites them, where they feel stuck, and how to build their confidence for a performance or exam. It’s a partnership that turns 'I can't' into 'I've got this'. Each lesson is built around your child's specific needs. One week, they might be breaking down a tricky solo for a Rockschool piece; the next, they could be focusing on the music theory needed to pass their next grade. That 'aha!' moment when a difficult chord progression finally clicks is what it's all about. This focused, one-to-one attention ensures they’re always moving forwards, building skills that are both enjoyable and valuable. Because tutoring is online, your family's busy schedule is never a barrier. No need to travel after a long day at school; your child can connect with their tutor right from home in Garstang. This opens up access to the very best tutors in the UK, specialists in exam preparation who you simply wouldn't find locally. It’s flexible, effective support that fits into your life.

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.

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! :-)
