About Me
I started learning the guitar over twenty years ago and despite quickly developing a passion for practicing, performing, writing and recording music, teaching the instrument has by far been the most rewarding aspect for me. Having started tutoring 12+ years ago, I have a wealth of experience teaching people of all ages and skill levels, privately and in schools and colleges. Nothing gives me more pride than knowing I’ve helped someone reach their full potential and I will never tire of being a part of people’s musical journeys. Below is a list of qualifications and experience which will hopefully give you an idea of my capability as a teacher.
