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 attends a demanding school like Ermysted's. How can guitar tutoring fit around their workload?
This is where online tutoring is a perfect fit. There's no travel time, and you can schedule lessons for evenings, weekends, or even during school holidays—whatever works for your family. It provides a structured, creative outlet that can actually help them de-stress and refocus on their academic work.
We're worried guitar is just a distraction from exams. How can a tutor help?
We hear this a lot. A great tutor helps frame guitar practice not as a distraction, but as a valuable skill-building exercise. It teaches discipline, perseverance, and creative problem-solving. Many parents find it becomes a healthy and productive way for their child to manage exam stress.
Is learning guitar online as effective as in-person lessons?
Absolutely. With video calls, tutors get a clear view of your child's hands on the fretboard and can demonstrate techniques up close. They can also use our interactive whiteboard to share chord charts and tabs instantly. Plus, it gives your child in Skipton access to a much wider range of specialist tutors than is available locally.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with the first tutor we try?
It's really important that your child and their tutor connect. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If it doesn't feel like the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
My child is interested in songwriting, not just playing covers. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, many of our guitar tutors are also experienced songwriters and musicians who can teach music theory, composition, and even the basics of recording. It's a fantastic way to nurture their creativity and take their skills to the next level.
How do you make sure the tutors are properly qualified and safe to work with children?
Your child's safety is our highest priority. Every tutor on our platform goes through a rigorous selection process, including an interview and a mandatory background check. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
What equipment will my child need for their first online lesson?
It's quite simple! They'll need their guitar, a laptop or tablet with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Their tutor will let them know if anything else, like a tuner or a capo, would be helpful for future lessons.
My child has never picked up a guitar before. Is online tutoring suitable for complete beginners?
Of course! Our tutors are brilliant at helping absolute beginners get started. They can guide your child through everything, from how to hold the guitar correctly to playing their very first song. It’s a wonderfully supportive way to begin their musical journey.
Are there tutors who can help my child prepare for music grades like RGT or Rockschool?
Yes, many of our tutors are experienced in preparing students for formal music examinations. They can create a tailored plan to help your child work through the syllabus, polish their pieces, and build the confidence they need for their exam.
How much do online guitar lessons cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you have complete control.
Do you offer tutoring in other subjects besides music?
We do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core academic subjects like Maths and English to coding, languages, and other creative arts. We're here to support every part of your child's learning.
What equipment will my child need for their first online lesson?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the one-to-one attention from a personal tutor often leads to quicker progress. The biggest change many parents notice first isn't just skill, but confidence—the excitement of mastering a new chord or playing a full song for the first time.
