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 loves guitar, but we're worried it won't be taken seriously on a UCAS application for a university like Warwick. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. This is a common concern for parents in Solihull. An expert tutor can help structure your child's learning towards achieving formal qualifications, like Rockschool or ABRSM grades. These are highly respected and demonstrate long-term commitment and discipline on a personal statement, making an application stand out.
With schools like Tudor Grange setting high academic benchmarks, how can a tutor ensure guitar practice is productive?
Our tutors help by creating a structured learning plan. Instead of directionless practice, sessions are focused on clear goals, whether it's mastering music theory, preparing for an exam, or developing songwriting skills. This ensures their creative time is also time spent building a tangible skill.
Is learning a practical instrument like the guitar effective online?
Yes, very. Our online classroom uses high-quality video, allowing tutors to demonstrate techniques like finger placement and strumming patterns up-close. Tutors can share resources like tabs and theory sheets on-screen, making for a focused and interactive lesson from the convenience of your Solihull home.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first guitar tutor?
Finding the right personality match is key. We have a first lesson guarantee for this reason. If you don't feel the tutor is the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
Are the tutors qualified to teach formal music grades?
Many of our tutors are highly experienced in preparing students for formal grade exams with boards like ABRSM, Trinity, and Rockschool. You can view each tutor's full experience and qualifications on their profile to find the perfect match for your child's goals.
How much do online guitar lessons typically cost for a student in Solihull?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of expertise. Tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Because we connect you with tutors across the UK, you have a wide range of options to suit your budget.
Do we need to own a guitar before we start lessons?
Yes, it's best for your child to have their own guitar (acoustic, electric, or classical) so they can practise between lessons. If you need advice on what kind of instrument to buy, a tutor will be happy to help guide you during your first session.
Are tutors background-checked?
Yes, the safety of our students is our top priority. All of our tutors have been interviewed and have had their ID verified. We also strongly encourage all tutors to complete an enhanced DBS check.
How long are the online sessions?
Lessons are typically one hour long, which gives enough time to warm up, work on new techniques, and review progress. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child's schedule and concentration.
My child wants to learn a specific style, like blues or metal. Can we find a specialist?
Definitely. That's a huge advantage of online tutoring. Your child in Solihull isn't limited to local teachers. You can use our search filters to find tutors from all over the UK who specialise in the exact style of music your child is passionate about.
Beyond guitar, can my child learn other creative skills?
Yes. We have expert tutors across hundreds of subjects. Whether your child is interested in songwriting, music production, art, or drama, you can find a specialist tutor to help them explore their creative talents.
Do we need to own a guitar before we start lessons?
It's simple. You'll just need a reliable internet connection and a device with a webcam and microphone, such as a laptop, tablet, or desktop computer. And your child's guitar, of course!
