Whoever your favourite player is and whatever style you want to learn, I can help you do so at your own pace with tailor made courses of guitar lessons to suit every age, ability and learning style. If you want to take grade exams (ABRSM, Trinity, Rockschool, RGT etc.) then I can help you tick all the boxes without getting bored of the same old scales and pieces. Just want to play for fun? No problem! I believe that music is a free and creative expression of yourself and if you don’t need a collection of certificates to enjoy it then you can play whatever you want to!
In my fully equipped studio just off Queen’s Road in Heeley, you will find everything you need to learn the guitar quickly and effectively. You’ll never be short of manuscript paper, a pencil or a plectrum and rock/metal players will be pleased to hear that there’s no noise limit so you can crank up the amp as high as you want (even up to 11, should you feel thus inclined).
If you’re feeling tired/lazy I also offer peripatetic lessons in your home for a small extra charge to cover the costs of travel and lost lesson time or you can take lessons from the comfort of your arm chair via the medium of Skype (no extra charge).
At the end of every quarter I run a small concert for friends, family and anyone you’d care to invite so that my students can showcase what they’ve learnt (no pressure though!). I also have jam sessions at the studio to help students build their improvisation skills. As my studio is based in Hybrid3 recording studio with three sound-proofed practice rooms next door it’s also a great place to meet other likeminded musician-y folk!
I have been teaching guitar for the last 3 years, and playing since I was 8. I am a regularly gigging musician playing funk, folk, rock, classical and jazz for events, functions and weddings all round the UK and even abroad from time to time. I play in several bands on a regular basis- check out the videos page for some examples of my playing. Have a look at the Testimonials page to see some of my previous satisfied customers!
You can never be too old to learn and I teach anyone who’s over 8. The first lesson’s free if you like the facebook page so contact me today to get started!
