Online Guitar Lessons
Perhaps your child wants to learn, but online videos aren’t working. Or maybe they’ve hit a wall with their progress, and the frustration is starting to build. It’s hard to watch them lose interest in something they once enjoyed.
Even when you can’t teach them the chords, you can still help them find the right person. Our Tutor Finder asks a few simple questions about your child and what they want to achieve. We then match you with a specialist guitar tutor we genuinely believe is the right fit.

I'm Paul and I have been teaching electric and acoustic guitar for 27 years. I have worked for Cheshire County Council and Manchester Council for 20 years teaching in various schools. Lessons are online. In my approach to teaching I want the student to be able to understand the fundamentals of the guitar, fretboard awareness knowing all the notes on the fretboard, knowledge of scales and how they relate to chords and harmony.This gives the student the ability to improvise and develop their own voice on the guitar.I think it is important to set a regular practice routine to set goals.I encourage...

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
