I have taught a large number of adults and children to play guitar. Many are approaching the guitar for the first time with little music background, others are well advanced both technically and musically. I offer a structured form of teaching whilst being flexible enough to listen to the wants of the individual.
Thus I tailor a course of lessons specifically to the pupils abilities, musical tastes, and aspirations. At regular checkpoints I review progress and adapt to any changes in requirements. Because I have a rounded experience of playing, teaching and performing, I am able to offer the following styles and disciplines:
- Beginners guitar - an introduction to the instrument and basic music concepts
- Classical guitar - Grade 1 to Grade 8
- Rock / pop guitar - Learning songs, playing with bands, and Rockschool syllabus
I have taught the Trinity College syllabus as well as the Rock School syllabuses.
I have experience in teaching at primary and secondary school level. I teach individuals or teach in groups. I have taught pupils between the ages of 6 and 60.
I also run workshops in the local area through White Horse Music and have worked for Super Strings workshops.
For those without an instrument or guitar accessories, I can arrange these for you.
