Testimonials:
“I'd messed around with various 'teach yourself' books for a couple of years, and regularly reached a point of knowing a few chords and then giving up for a while after it became quite tricky. I thought I may as well take a few lessons, and found Andy on a website – I learned more in the first couple of lessons than I had ever before. All of the things that I was stumbling over were rectified very quickly and that allowed me to progress well after that.
His teaching style is relaxed, guided by where you want to go and what you want to achieve, and lessons are enjoyable. After only three or four months of lessons I am now comfortable playing quite a few 'basic' songs, and have also reached a stage where I can figure things
out in terms of notes, sounds etc that I would have had no chance of knowing before. Also, he identifies small things that make a huge difference to the sound of what you're playing, which I'd have no
chance of doing myself.
I'd thoroughly recommend anyone giving Andy a go - I wasn't
disappointed, and I'm sure you won't be either.”

"I had very few lessons before starting with Andy but his practical, hands on teaching methodology has helped me understand the fretboard and eliminate the need for tabs."

"Since commencing acoustic guitar lessons with Andy approximately 3 months ago I have noticed dramatic developments in my knowledge of chords and chord sequences as well as my strumming and finger-picking techniques. I would strongly recommend Andy as a guitar tutor who provides a very supportive environment allied with great musical knowledge, technical expert
ise and excellent communication skills. His lesson plans are always stimulating and varied and tailored to my learning needs and accordingly I can demonstrate tangible improvements in my guitar playing week on week."

"Andy has been an excellent help in teaching me the basics of the guitar. With an informative, informal approach, he splits the lessons up superbly with technical tutoring and practical song learning helping you to play some of your favourite riffs."

"Hi my name is Martin and at the age of 51 decided to learn the acoustic guitar. I tried to teach myself but was making very slow progress. I had a lesson with Andy just to see if it would suit me. I found Andy to be very relaxed and enthusiastic tailoring the lesson to my pace. I have improved with every lesson going away each time with songs to practice on. Because I work shifts my lesson can be weeks apart and on different days but Andy always sorts me out and is only an e-mail away."
