Steve is a great guitar teacher and his friendly and relaxed approach together with his knowledge and enthusiasm immediately made me feel at ease and motivated. Steve is very patient and explains and demonstrates things clearly. I have learnt so much in just a few lessons. More...

Steve is very patient and has a great way of explaining things so that even I am making progress. He is able to translate the chords and exercises into left-handed versions for me: being a beginner it is not something I always get right by myself so this is particularly helpful. Steve also takes the time to teach the kind of music and songs that I am interested in. More...

I am a complete beginner and Steve has been patient with my lack of any ability at all. I had a family issue and was unable to practice, then forgot the finger exercises he asked me to do. Steve kindly sent me a video of himself showing me exactly what I was meant to be doing. I feel confident that with the additional lessons I will be taking that I will be able to play some basic tunes on my guitar. That will inspire me to go back for more. Steve is a top, top tutor!

I was an absolute beginner to playing guitar and it’s been 2 months, my confidence and the learning progress has been fantastic. I have learnt over 4 rhythms in such a short time. Steve makes it all so easy and gets you ready to start with a song even if you have never played before. Great techniques, easy going and always available offline for any help, questions or doubts!

Coming out of lock down I was looking for a guitar teacher that was open to what I wanted to achieve during my lessons. Supplying Steve with a long list of songs I wanted to learn he was able to judge my ability and now works each lesson around what I like and similar songs. From a recent practice at home friends and family have noticed the improvement from my lessons. Would massively recommend Steve. More...

My grandaughter has been enjoying ukulele and guitar lessons with Steve for over a year now, and we have been amazed at her progress and her love of music which has been enforced. She absolutely loves her time spent with Steve learning new music each week. He is so quietly patient, professional and so full of encouragement, and it's something she loves taking part in. So often she say that she wishes he was her music teacher at school, but at least she gets to enjoy his company twice a week. Thank you Steve! Ginny More...

My 9 year old son started lessons with Steve a few months ago. He's really surprised us with how much his playing and confidence has improved and over such a short space of time. He even felt confident enough to enter a talent show at school recently - proudly playing one of his grade 1 pieces that he had been practising with Steve. Steve is patient and very encouraging and his communication with us from day 1 has been great. I would highly recommend! More...

Khan has been learning guitar with Steve and he thoroughly enjoys it. He finds him very easy to talk to and they have some funny moments together, which makes guitar more enjoyable. Even though he stopped playing for a while when the first lockdown was introduced, khan has picked the guitar up again and has since done his grade 1 and now working for grade 2. I would recommend Steve to anyone who would like to learn guitar, he’s a great teacher. Thanks Steve 😃 More...

Steve is such a great teacher. He is very kind and patient and you never feel rushed or judged. He is full of smiles and enthusiasm and really takes time to put you at ease when learning new things (when you might be feeling a little scared playing unfamiliar things in front of someone). There are many times when my fingers just won’t do what I want them to do and he will just tell me to take a deep breath, break things down and we’ll play things a section at a time until it starts to feel more natural. Sometimes the lesson can end up playing the same chord over and over again but yet it never feels like lost time. We have been having our lessons via remote means (skype) during these difficult times but I really don’t feel like I’ve ‘lost out’ on anything. I had some basic experience in playing guitar but pretty much only ‘strummed’ but Steve has shown me so much in such a short period of time (still lots of perfecting required!!) that I am blown away with what we’ve been able to achieve. Contact Steve if you want guitar lessons - you won’t be disappointed. More...

At the start of the Coronavirus lockdown, I thought my new found love of playing the guitar would have to go on ice. But thanks to Steve’s ingenuity I have not missed a single lesson, as throughout the last year we have held our regular sessions on Skype which has proved very effective. Steve sends music sheets via email and subsequent YouTube clips after the session to help with my practice. Keep up the good work Steve. More...

I have been taking acoustic guitar lessons with Stephen since May 2019. As a very late starter ( I am in my late 50’s) progress has been slow but, thanks to Stephen’s experience, knowledge and extreme patience I am beginning to understand the rudiments of music theory, have mastered a good number of chords and I can play a few simple tunes. For anyone also thinking of taking up an instrument at a similar stage in life to me I can highly recommend the process, particularly in terms of mental stimulation, improved dexterity and creative achievement.I highly recommend Stephen and Guitar Lessons Camberley.
