My wife brought me a gift voucher for Christmas. Was a little nervous at first but Steven is very relaxed and patient. He's a great teacher and explains things slowly and in as much detail as I need. I'm glad my wife booked the lessons and recommend anyone to give Steven a try. More...

Steve has been teaching my Son for the last 2 months. His confidence and skill has grown so much in such a small amount of time.
The online lessons are great as well as we don't need to worry about travel, traffic or being late.
Thank you so much.

Currently taking online lessons with Steven to work on my grade 5 bass exam. Online lessons work really well with all the advantages of face to face lessons but without the travel. .. Steven knows his stuff and is providing technical understanding, experience, and a stress-free but motivating lessons. Great fun, and I'm learning a lot. Looking forward to the next lesson More...
Sadie
My daughter loves her online lessons with Steven. She has great lessons locally to our home, but struggles to find the motivation to practice in between. Steven has a very cool way about him and inspires Olivia to try harder and practice more. He gives additional advice and makes Olivia giggle! The online lessons are so convenient too! Thank you Steven for so far helping Olivia with her exam and her concert and for all you are likely to continue doing. She loves her time on Zoom with you. More...

Teach Me Music is fantastic. My 9 year old lad started with guitar and then I (his mum) was inspired to start drumming. Not to be left out, my other lad (13) then took up drums too ! Jak tailors our drum lessons brilliantly - simple stuff for me but more challenging stuff for the younger brains! No pressure to do exams if you don’t want. Just enjoyable. Always flexible with scheduling and payment. Well recommended. More...

I’ve just completed my 8 drum beginner lessons. I’ve had an absolutely fabulous time and learnt so much. All carried out via Zoom, firstly Marcus but latterly Jak Batchelor have been simply awesome. Jak made my lessons fun and engaging whilst maintaining a professional approach to the whole thing. I simply can’t praise Teach Me Music enough. Not only the tutors but the admin team were great. Many thanks and highly recommended - I’ll be back! Ian Skinner. More...

As a drummer I couldn't recommend the practice facilities enough. Everything you need for a good instrumental practice, and top quality equipment at that. I've used many rehearsal spaces over the years in a bid to keep my neighbours happy, and this is by far the best I've used. Great friendly staff who will make sure you've got what you need (including a coffee!) I always look forward to my practices down at the academy! More...

What do you love most about your job?
Providing informative and entertaining education to all ages. Music is an entertaining art form, so it's important to mix education with interactive and exciting learning techniques. A lot of people struggle to learn a musical instrument because it's presented and taught in the wrong way. People get into music because they want to perform, enjoy and play their favourite songs so this is an integral part of my job.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I've been a music educator for 18 years as when I was younger I struggled to learn anything musical. I was taught in the wrong way and had the wrong teacher for my learning style. That inspired me to get into teaching to make sure no one had the same experience as me.
Why should our clients choose you?
I'm calm and patient. I understand that all people learn in a different style and no one has the same journey through music. For this reason I create a tailored bespoke learning plan for every student to make sure you enjoy every step of the journey while learning what is important to you. Music education should be tailored to the individual to bring out their creativity and individuality.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
All of my lessons are remote through zoom as you get the added benefit of recording every lesson and all resources are digital so you can keep a portfolio of information for future use. As the lessons are remote, it also saves my students wasting money on transport or travelling to the lessons. You can learn from the comfort of your own home on any device.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
All customers are safe from Covid-19 as there's no physical interaction. This also reduces lesson cancellations as sickness and illness isn't spread between the student and tutor.
