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 is inspired by Manchester's music scene but we're in Glossop. Can a tutor help bridge that gap?
Absolutely. This is exactly where online tutoring shines. We can connect your child with tutors who are active in the music industry, graduates of top music colleges, or specialists in performance and songwriting. They can provide real-world advice and coaching that goes far beyond the standard curriculum, helping your child find their creative path.
How can a tutor complement the academic music focus at schools like Glossopdale?
Our tutors are brilliant at filling in the practical gaps. Whilst school provides a great theoretical foundation, a one-to-one tutor can focus entirely on your child's playing technique, songwriting skills, improvisation, and performance confidence. They make the theory come alive on the fretboard, creating a well-rounded musician.
Can a tutor help my child prepare for an audition at a place like the Royal Northern College of Music?
Yes, many of our tutors have experience helping students prepare for auditions for higher education, including music conservatoires. They can help with everything from selecting the right pieces and perfecting technique to building performance confidence and understanding what audition panels are looking for.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for an instrument like guitar?
It is. With high-quality webcams and audio, tutors can clearly see and hear a student's playing, offering instant feedback on hand positions, strumming, and technique. Plus, online features like screen sharing for music sheets and recording lessons for later review make it an incredibly effective and convenient way to learn.
What if my child doesn't get on with the first guitar tutor we choose?
We know that the right connection is key. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't feel the tutor is the perfect fit for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
What equipment does my child need for online guitar lessons?
It's simple: they'll need their guitar, a laptop or tablet with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. That's it! Their tutor will handle the rest, often providing digital resources and notes through our platform.
Are your guitar tutors qualified musicians?
Yes. Our tutors come from a wide range of musical backgrounds. Many are professional performing musicians, experienced music teachers, or graduates from top UK music universities. We interview every tutor and only 1 in 8 who apply make it onto our platform, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
My child is a complete beginner. Is online tutoring suitable?
It's a fantastic way for beginners to start! A tutor can give them undivided attention to ensure they learn the correct posture and technique from day one, which prevents bad habits from forming. It's a very encouraging and supportive environment for someone just starting out.
Can we find a tutor for a specific style, like bass guitar or acoustic fingerstyle?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors cover a huge range of instruments and styles, including electric, acoustic, classical, and bass guitar, as well as genres from rock and pop to jazz and folk. You can use the filters on our site to find a specialist in the area your child is passionate about.
Beyond guitar, what other subjects do you offer tutoring for?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Alongside core academic subjects like Maths and English, we have tutors for other instruments, languages, coding, art, and much more. It's a great way to support both academic learning and personal hobbies.
How much do online guitar lessons for a student in Glossop cost?
Prices are set by the individual tutors and vary based on their experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you just pay for the lessons you book.
Are your guitar tutors qualified musicians?
You and your chosen tutor can arrange lesson times that work for you both. Tutors offer a wide range of availability, including evenings and weekends, making it easy to find a slot that fits around school, clubs, and family life in Glossop.
