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...

Davide is a very patient teacher. He meets the student at their level and teaches them accordingly in a way they'll understand.

Farrokh K
Farrokh is an amazing guitar teacher. As an adult autistic learner, Farrokh’s lessons are perfectly broken down into understandable chunks and he takes the time to explain everything fully and explain why things work like they do. I look forward to my lessons every week and would recommend him to anyone wanting to start learning the guitar.

Perry S
I’m not even on my fourth lesson yet with Perry, but I can already say that I’m extremely happy to have him as my teacher! Perry is an incredibly knowledgeable guitarist, and his passion for teaching is evident from the start. You can really feel his enthusiasm and love for guitar throughout the entire lesson :)
Each lesson is very well planned, and I always leave feeling like I’ve made significant progress. Perry adapts to your learning pace while keeping the lessons both fun and challenging. He’s always motivating and encouraging, which makes the learning process very enjoyable ! The lessons are engaging, and he makes sure to include your favourite songs in the lessons.
Not only is Perry a great teacher, but he’s also a very talented guitar composer. I had the chance to hear one of his compositions, and I was absolutely blown away !!
If you want to learn your favourite songs while having fun and discovering so many interesting techniques and facts about guitar, Perry is the right teacher for you! (whether you're new to guitar or experienced) I couldn’t recommend him enough :)
