Professional electric & acoustic guitar teaching

About us:

I am currently teaching guitar (both electric and acoustic) in the Wokingham/Berkshire area. I have a degree in Music from The University of Liverpool and have studied guitar to a professional standard at the Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford.

I teach a wide range of styles ranging from genres dating back to the 1950′s, including blues, rock ‘n’ roll, rock, pop, alternative, punk, post-punk, jazz, grunge, heavy metal & classical.

I have a wide collection of musical notation, extensive chord charts, backing tracks & video teaching aids via USB memory sticks, adding a further dimension to my teaching.

I am very flexible with times and am also willing to travel to students. Please do get in touch if you are interested in learning guitar regardless of previous experience or playing level.

Music Matters

Music Matters

Maidenhead, Berkshire ~ Music Lessons
Music lessons for babies to 11 year olds.

About us:

I started Music Matters in January 2001 having previously taught music in secondary and primary schools. My aim was to provide an excellent start in music for as many children as possible as research shows that giving a child a good music education from an early age helps develop their language, mathematical and literacy skills as well as their self confidence.

Music Matters classes are based on the Kodaly Approach and are designed to be active and lots of fun. All the learning is done through singing and playing musicianship games and all the music is live – no CDs are used! Classes are small and age specific.

Classes for babies to 5 year olds are held Wednesday mornings and Friday afternoons in Maidenhead and Friday mornings in Knowl Hill. Classes for 5 to 11 year olds are held after school on Tuesdays in Maidenhead. Contact me for a free first lesson.

Windsor, Berkshire ~ Music Lessons
Windsor based Guitar and Bass Lessons situated in a professional student environment.

About us:

I joined the Berkshire School of Pop Music at the age of 12 years, where I was taught guitar, performance and event management techniques. After leaving there, I utilized these skills in starting my own band and private tuition classes which have led me to be teaching guitar professionally now for almost 15 years. I currently teach over 20 pupils a week and many of my students have progressed on to universities such as the Academy of Contemporary Music or have formed bands or become teachers themselves.

I have organized and taught at various Rock Schools for the local community at the Windsor Arts Centre, in which young musicians work on their instrument, performance and band management techniques. This has proved to be very successful and many of these students have gone on to become successful musicians and run productive bands.

I have nearly 10 years of experience recording and producing music in a recording studio, working with all types of different musicians and personalities. From this, I have learned a great deal about different types of music, time management, motivation and people skills, which I believe to be very important attributes to have as a teacher.

I have occasionally taught the bass guitar and piano, and I am proficient in both of these instruments. I believe an understanding in other instruments, will help the student to become a good overall musician, as well as further improve their knowledge of their own chosen instrument.

I have an excellent knowledge of music theory in which I have a qualification in Grade 5 theory of music. I am proficient in reading TAB and basic notation.

I am a highly motivated and creative person, I find teaching extremely rewarding and always try to inspire and motivate my students in their lesson.
