More Than Music: Finding Their Stride for Secondary School
Learning guitar is about so much more than hitting the right notes. It's a way for your child to express themselves, to build resilience when a chord feels impossible, and to discover the joy of creating something unique. Imagine them walking into a music room at Clayton Hall Academy or St John Fisher, feeling not just capable but excited to join in. That's the confidence we help build – the kind that helps them find their people and feel they truly belong.

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! :-)

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is starting at a secondary school like Clayton Hall Academy. Can a tutor help them feel confident enough to join a band?
Absolutely. This is one of the most powerful things a great tutor can do. They can focus lessons on the skills needed to play with others, from mastering rhythm to learning popular songs their peers might be playing. Most importantly, they act as a mentor, building your child's self-belief so they feel ready and excited to share their music.
Are your tutors based in Newcastle-under-Lyme?
Our tutors are based all across the UK, and they teach online to students everywhere, including Newcastle-under-Lyme. This is a huge benefit, as it means your child can connect with a specialist tutor who perfectly matches their goals and learning style, rather than being limited to whoever is available locally.
Is online Guitar tutoring as effective as in-person lessons?
Yes, and for many it's even better. With online lessons, tutors can use features like screen-sharing for music tabs and theory, and lessons can often be recorded for your child to review later. It also offers incredible flexibility and access to top tutors from across the UK, right from your home.
What equipment does my child need for online Guitar lessons?
It's simple. Your child will need their guitar, a laptop or tablet with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. That's it! Our online classroom is easy to use and designed to make learning straightforward and engaging.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first Guitar tutor?
We know that the right connection is key to learning. If the first session with a tutor isn't the perfect fit, please email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor to ensure you find the right match.
Can a tutor help my child with music theory as well as playing?
Of course. Many of our Guitar tutors are experts in music theory and can integrate it into practical lessons in a way that makes sense. Whether your child is preparing for graded exams or just wants to understand the 'why' behind the music, their tutor can create a plan that covers it all.
How do you vet your tutors?
We have a rigorous selection process because we believe your child deserves the best. We interview every tutor and only accept 1 in 8 applicants. All tutors must have a valid DBS check and provide references, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How much do online Guitar lessons cost for a student in Newcastle-under-Lyme?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary based on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price on our website to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
Can we schedule lessons around school and other clubs?
Yes, flexibility is a major advantage of online tutoring. You can see each tutor's availability on their profile and find a time that fits perfectly around your family's busy schedule, whether it's after school, on weekends, or during the holidays.
Does my child have to follow a set curriculum or grade system?
Not at all, unless that's what you want. Lessons are completely tailored to your child. If their goal is to learn their favourite songs and jam with friends, the tutor will focus on that. If they want to work through formal grades, the tutor can provide a structured path for that too.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
You'll see it in their confidence and hear it in their playing! Tutors provide regular feedback, and you can chat with them through our platform. The biggest sign of progress is often seeing your child pick up their guitar to practise without being asked, simply because they're enjoying it.
How do you vet your tutors?
We do! We believe in nurturing all kinds of talents. You can find expert online tutors for a wide range of subjects, from other musical instruments and singing to art, drama, and even digital skills like coding and music production.
