Guitar Lessons
You will receive guitar lessons at £35 per hour which are paced to yourself. You will be able to learn a wide range of styles, such as rock, pop, and jazz. You will learn to read music and learn practical theory - this will be more than just learning songs, you will gain a full understanding of your instrument!
I offer a beginner's guitar for rent or purchase, or you may use it for the hour's lesson free of charge.
The first hour will be free, so that we can get to know each other and you can see if I am someone you would like to work with.
Bass Lessons
You will receive bass lessons at £35 per hour which are paced to yourself. You will be able to learn a wide range of styles, such as rock, pop, and jazz. I will be able to teach you using both four-string or five-string basses, though we will also be able to tackle six-string bass if you wish.
You will learn to read music and learn practical theory - this will be more than just learning songs, you will gain a full understanding of your instrument!
The first hour will be free, so that we can get to know each other and you can see if I am someone you would like to work with.
Drum Lessons
You will receive drum lessons in your own home at £30 per hour which are paced to yourself. You will be able to learn a wide range of styles, such as rock, pop, and jazz. I will welcome both electric and acoustic drum players, the techniques are all the same!
You will learn to read music and exercises that will expand your understanding of rhythm and getting the most out of your instrument.
The first hour will be free, so that we can get to know each other and you can see if I am someone you would like to work with.
Music Theory Tuition
I have a degree level education of music theory including the editing and engraving of sheet music, and analysis and composition of fugues.
We will start at your current level, then expand quickly and you will see that music theory is not as hard to understand as it may seem at first.
It doesn't matter if you are unable to read music, if you want to learn how music works then you are welcome.
The first session is free as I will use it to see your level and for us to get to know each other, so that you can decide if I am the type of person you would like to work with!
Ukulele Lessons
Ukulele is a fun and popular way to make inroads to music as a hobby.
The great thing about ukulele is that is cheaper and smaller than a guitar, and is therefore a great alternative for young children who might not be big enough to move on to guitar yet. It also popular with adults who want to try a fun instrument to accompany singing or just to strum along to some songs.
With me you will learn all you need to know on ukulele.
