Passionate, frankly, blummin awesome Guitar and Music Theory tutor. I have taught all over London, England and am highly experienced with over 14 years as a professional and private tutor.

Experienced with all abilities and genres, whether you’re wishing to become a professional Classical Guitarist or just learn to have a good strum and twang around.

I am a multi-genre instrumentalist, and this has allowed me to gain a full, expansive grasp of the guitars’ different techniques and wonderfully mind-boggling sounds

Experience

  • Music Theory & Guitar Performance Tutor (Jan, 2009–Jan, 2023) at Self-Employed
    Teaching students privately, both in-person, in London or Birmingham, or online teaching globally.
    The job requires initial student assessment (for level, ability, learning style and customising tuition around their unique personality), lesson pre-planning, ensuring correct equipment for online tuition, organising lesson times, post-lesson write-ups to ensure that you always have a full record of what the student is learning and as to how it is benefitting them in their musical development, and working out the optimal next step for elevating them further in their musicianship, writing invoices and, most importantly, remembering what it was like to walk into your first lesson and that sense of extreme inadequacy. This helps very greatly when tutoring as it quenches any sense of impatience or frustration with the students development, it provides understanding.
  • Teaching Assistant (Mar, 2008–May, 2010) at Burton and South Derbyshire College
    Assisting students with paranoid schizophrenia, autism, ADHD and dyslexia in their learning.
