My teaching philosophy

Learning an instrument should be fun

If you're not having fun while you learn, then why bother to do it?  

Learning a musical instrument can feel daunting at first, so it helps to have a teacher that wants you to feel relaxed and build your confidence as you learn.

How am I going to make it fun?

I'll teach you music you love to play.  Before the first lesson, we'll discuss the music that you like.  The lessons will teach you how to play the guitar, centred around the music you like the most.

We'll take it one step at a time.  It's important to get things in the right order or it can be confusing - we'll focus on acquiring new skills one by one, in small chunks so that you can progress confidently
