About
I am an experienced guitarist who has been teaching for 10 years. I am very passionate about teaching children the guitar and take great pride in seeing them progress. I also ensure lessons are fun as well as informative and happy to teach individually or to small groups.
I teach the ABRSM, rockschool and trinty syllabuses (am also very happy to teach just for fun) and have a very high pass rate. I am based in the Marlborough/Pewsey area and willing to travel to students houses.
What I / we help young people achieve
I have a very high pass rate which proves the quality of my lessons. I also have very high retention rate and have been teaching most of my students for years. I believe my lessons help children develop both musically.and as a person and really enjoy seeing their confidence grow.
