How do I get started?
​
Send a short message with your experience level, age (or student’s age), and what you’d like to focus on. If you’re unsure, we’ll shape the direction together.
​
What will I learn?
Lessons are built around your goals - whether that’s learning favourite songs, improving technique, or following a structured path.
Styles include rock, blues, pop, acoustic, fingerstyle and more.
If you want a formal framework, we can work towards graded exams (such as Trinity Rock & Pop). Otherwise, lessons can remain fully practical and music-focused.
​
What age do you teach?
Lessons are available from 8 years old and upwards, with no upper age limit.
For younger children (8-12), parent involvement is strongly recommended. At this stage, consistent progress depends on routine - doing practice together is often the only reliable way to build a habit.
​
How are lessons scheduled?
We set a fixed weekly time slot to keep progress consistent and structured. This is the most effective way to develop real skill. Occasional flexible lessons may be available.
​
Where do lessons take place?
Lessons take place in a super quiet, sound-treated studio designed for focused learning.
The space also allows for simple performance recording, so we can track your progress over time.
A range of different guitars is available in the studio to explore and find what suits you best.
​
How much do lessons cost?
Lessons are billed monthly in advance via bank transfer or cash.
Individual lesson rates:
-
30 minutes – £25
-
45 minutes – £30
-
60 minutes – £35
​
Group and family lesson options are also available.
​
What should I bring?
Your own guitar is recommended for the best progress, but you are welcome to use one of my guitars during lessons. If you don’t yet own a guitar, you can still start. Early lessons can help you try different instruments and choose the right one with confidence. All amps, pedals, and cables are provided in the studio.
​
Will I need to practise between lessons?
Absolutely. And you’ll always know exactly what to do - each lesson includes clear, focused practice tasks tailored to your level. The goal is steady, realistic progress without overwhelm.
​
Do you offer lessons for parents and children together?
Yes. Family lessons (parent + child) are a great way to make learning more engaging and to support practice at home.
​
Can I play with others?
Yes, duet and trio sessions are available for students who already have some experience.
These sessions simulate a real band environment and help develop timing, listening skills, and musical communication - essential skills for playing with others.
