Strum!

I went to Mark to get help with my song writing - I felt my lack of musical theory/ability was holding me back. Under Marks guidance I think my writing has come on leaps and bounds - he is always prepared (unlike some other guitar teachers I’ve used in the past!) and very encouraging - always suggesting different artists and groups to listen to in order to improve my writing. We have now decided to move on to actual guitar technique - in order to embellish the songs - It goes without saying I...

At the age of 55 and having "played" the guitar for 30 years, I realised that I acutally couldn't play that well at all. I had lost my interest and my guitars were gathering dust.

Our 6 year old daughter had never picked up a guitar until she started Mark’s lessons. He is patient and explains everything in an age appropriate manner, offering praise and encouragement throughout each session. His approach is extremely professional and our daughter really looks forward to attending each week. We would highly recommend Mark as a local guitar tutor.

I have been trying to play the guitar for over a decade. I recently started lessons with Mark, he evaluated my guitar playing, listened to what my musical interests are and came up with a pathway for improvement. Mark has without any shadow of doubt guided me to progress and improve. No amount of YouTube tutorials can come anywhere close to good one to one instruction and Mark is highly recommended in this regard.

My 9 year old daughter has started guitar lessons with Mark. She is a complete beginner and Mark makes learning easy and fun. She really looks forward to her lessons and I am amazed how much she has learnt in just a few weeks. A great teacher and a superb guy! Highly recommended!
