"I have been teaching privately and in music schools for over 20 years, a variety of styles and techniques from beginners to advanced. Wether you are just starting or can already play, I can help you develop a solid practice routine that will target specific areas of playing, but, most importantly, I want you to develop your own voice on the instrument just as I'm always constantly doing. I believe every musician is constantly learning, music is a journey, so come aboard!"

About Me
I have been teaching privately and in music schools for over 10 years, a variety of styles and techniques from beginners to advanced. Wether you are just starting or can already play, I can help you develop a solid practice routine that will target specific areas of playing, but, most importantly, I want you to develop your own voice on the instrument just as I'm always constantly doing.

I consider myself a patient, knowledgeable and dedicated teacher, you an read some of my testimonials below


"Andy is an excellent guitar teacher for students of all ages. He taught my teenage son for two years and made the lessons fun and accessible. My son plays very well now, but more important, he has a deeper understanding of music in general and how learning an instrument can really enhance one’s life. That is thanks to Andy’s enthusiasm and good manner. I highly recommend him." Jean

"Andy is a great guitar teacher who has really brought my playing on. He is a talented musician, but just as importantly a patient teacher who has helped both me and my 10 year old son grasp the basics of guitar playing. He’s also a really cool guy. I’d recommend him to anyone." Pete

"Andy is an amazing guitar player and teacher, extremely patient with children, methodical and effective in his teaching. He has good knowledge of the RSL Rock school curriculum and examination requirements.
Our son has progressed very fast to grade 3, taking the grade 4 exam soon.
I have the greatest confidence in Andy and would recommend him unreservedly for teaching children and adults alike." Kostas

"I have been taking guitar for a couple years and I can with out a doubt say that Andy is the best guitar teacher I have ever had. He Is chill and understanding. Would recommend him to anyone who wants to start learning guitar." Alex

Hugh
Hi, I’m Hugh – a qualified and experienced musician with a Bachelor’s Degree and Honours in Music Performance and Production from The London Centre of Contemporary Music. With over ten years of experience as a guitarist and vocalist, I’ve had the privilege of performing across the UK in several touring bands. My musical journey has seen me perform in genres ranging from funk, indie, to rock.

As an enthusiastic and passionate teacher, I enjoy working with both children and adults to help them reach their musical goals. I understand that every musician is unique, so I always tailor my lessons to suit the individual needs of my students, ensuring that learning is both engaging and fun.

What I Offer:

Whether you're just starting out or looking to refine your skills, I can help with the following:

Songwriting: Struggling with that elusive bridge for your next band anthem? Let's work together to craft that perfect section and bring your songwriting ideas to life.

Vocal Training: I offer lessons to help you develop your vocal range, pitch, projection, control, tone, diction, runs, and vibrato in chest, head, and combined voice.

Music Theory: Want to conquer the theory side of things? I’ll break down complex concepts so you can understand and apply them in your playing and writing.

Accelerated Learning: Learn faster and easier with tailored methodologies that boost your ability to improvise and master the guitar and vocals.

Ear Training: Hone your ability to replicate melodies, intervals, chords, and songs by ear, so you can hear and play anything you want.

Jam Sessions: We can jam together, covering songs of your choice, to gain a deeper understanding of guitar, vocals, and songwriting.

Fretboard Mastery: Learn how to break down and master the fretboard. Understand triads, seventh chords, and scales in all positions for better improvisation and composition.

My Teaching Style:

I believe that every student has their own way of learning and discovering music. I adapt my lessons to meet your needs and interests, keeping things enjoyable while ensuring progress. Whether you're into playing your favourite covers, writing your own songs, or just want to improve your technique, I’m here to help you grow as a musician.
