Thank you Paul. Maybe you can revisit after 2 or 3 lessons so it's not just based on 1st impression? That's why I don't usually ask for a review until 3rd lesson+

Sophy, thank you so much! It is such a pleasure to teach someone as willing to learn as you. You are whizzing along!

David is an excellent guitar teacher with experience. He makes the lessons so enjoyable yet you learn so much about guitar and music theory in each lesson. What I find very useful is that he explains the theory behind the pieces he teaches which I think is very important for the building blocks of the musical journey to becoming a good guitarist. David communicates very well with his students, listens to them play and gives instant advice for improvement. Lastly, he is also quite flexible when it comes to when and at what time the lesson may take place. Virtual lessons have also been really great and beneficial.
I strongly recommend taking guitar lessons with David Guy.

We’ve been doing Zoom classes. He is very patient with new students and is very knowledgable. My 11 year old said, “I’ve really learned a lot.”

I recommend him highly.

Only had one lesson with David, very good but did think that we jumped into quite a difficult song for a beginner to quick. Maybe could have gone through the scales and chords first for more understanding. But otherwise very good More...

Reply from David Guys Music Lessons (Sax, Guitar and Music Theory)

Thanks Luke. Sorry if you thought that it was quite difficult! Though I suspect someone has influenced your thinking. As you are a Grade 7 musician (albeit at a different instrument), and really liked Metallica, the extract from When the Wild wind blows that we did was specially chosen for and known to you, and in fact as simple as could be hoped for (just 3 notes over 2 strings). Frankly, it was easier than doing a scale which is 8 notes over 4 strings. So I find the comment a little baffling..... ...but thanks for your kind words :-).

Q&As

Seeing the the look of happiness in students' faces when they are able to do something new that I've been able to teach them from knowledge gained over many years.

I get to be my own boss, choose my customers and choose my lifestyle.

I have over 30 years of knowledge in learning the guitar from many different aspects: Chords, Lead Riffs, Finger picking, Pentatonics, Playing along with well known songs, Rhythm, Music Theory etc.

However, the fact that I'm not a professional musician, means I can empathise much more easily with the beginner or improver.

I'm also very flexible and will tune lessons to your desires.

Yes - definitely!
I have customers connected by:

- Zoom
- Google Meet
- Skype
- Microsoft Teams

Mostly to provide remote lessons.

In the warmer weather - providing face to face in my garden

In colder weather to socially distance and make sure nothing is touched by both parties - or if so to disinfect before and after.
