From your home in southampton, your child can connect with a specialist guitar tutor from anywhere in the UK – a mentor focused entirely on helping them find their rhythm again and fall back in love with making music.

More Than Chords: Building Lifelong Musical Confidence

Imagine them finally nailing that difficult solo, having the confidence to jam with friends, or even feeling inspired to write their own songs. In a creative hub like southampton, these skills aren't just a hobby – they're a vital creative outlet and a pathway towards exciting futures, perhaps even at a specialist institution like Solent University. It’s about giving them an expressive tool they'll have for life.

Kevin P
Inspiring, highly experienced tutor Guitar guitar tutor
I started playing guitar at the age of 6 years old when I was at primary school with a beaten up old classical guitar with bent machine heads and crazy string height – it helped me to learn the basics but I didn’t really take to it and didn’t practise at that stage.When I was coming up to my 13th birthday I was kindly offered an electric guitar and that was it, I was hooked! I wore out many tape players trying to copy artists such as Dire Straits, Shadows, Gary Moore and Jeff Beck to name but a few.. I have played everyday since and am always learning new concepts and exploring different appro...

Pete M
Unique Music Teacher Guitar piano, guitar, music theory
Hi, my name is Pete and I absolutely love teaching and music and have been a professional teacher and musician for 30 years. I started with the piano at age 6, and almost immediately began improvising, and have been doing so ever since. I began learning the guitar and bass at 14, (and harmonica now I think of it!), then went into production / tech at 18, using initially tracker programs, then logic on pc, then cubase, then logic and ableton on mac. I then realised I wanted to do music professionally, and went to study music and teaching at Westminster University, where I met many brilliant musicians...

Great tutor, patient, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. My son really enjoys the lessons and always looks forward to them. I'd highly recommend him.

George E
I'm new to Tutorful and just checking it out. My guitar playing has always been kind of uncomplicated and I've always been lazy with learning theory. George was exactly the tutor I needed to remedy this. He was well-prepared, covered exactly what I wanted to know about, and explained it very clearly. He was also very patient and really went the extra mile to make sure we got through everything he had planned even though I ran late (which won't happen again!).
I am not sure that I will actually stick with online lessons on Tutorful as I'm finding the platform rather buggy and tricky to use, but I don't want to go without recommending George. I would even prefer to do in-person lessons with him if I can make it work with my schedule

We hear this a lot, and it's a key reason parents come to us. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, private space where your child can build skills without peer pressure. They can ask questions they'd be too nervous to ask in a group, make mistakes freely, and grow in confidence at their own pace before they even think about jamming with friends.
