Teaching

I teach guitar and violin to students of all ages at every level of ability in various styles.

My students study tablature, notation and scales as appropriate, but I also encourage playing by ear. I often work using recorded music, pointing out both the guitar parts in songs and the arrangement as a whole.

I draw on my band experience to prepare students to play with other people. Where students are interested, we explore improvisation based of harmony, scales and on lucky accidents.

My current rates are £16 for half an hour and £30 for an hour. Longer lessons are available by arrangement.

I also run workshops for individual performers and bands.
