I called John and asked for his advice, which was really refreshing as he suggested that we didn't rush out and buy a guitar as he had a studio with plenty in and Sophie could therefore try them out and see what style she was most comfortable with.
We booked our first lesson and we arrived at John's studio. We received a genuinely friendly and warm welcome, which really put a slightly nervous 10 year old at ease (she is normally so very confident) and she relaxed into the lesson. John worked with Sophie and it was great to see her go from never having held a guitar to being able to play a few notes - which eventually formed her first song within the first lesson. Now I am not by any means suggesting she mastered the song, but the look of joy thanks to the sense of achievement, which resulted from John's patient, encouraging and friendly teaching - was fantastic to witness.
Sophie is continuing to have lessons and is growing in both confidence and skill for her guitar playing; so much so that we are now looking to buy her a guitar (John was happy to give some sound advice on this too.)
So in summary - if you are looking for a friendly, patient guitar teacher - who will have you playing a few chords or notes to form a song within your first lesson, give John a call and have a chat. We have been delighted!
At the time I discovered John , James had been playing for about a year with a teacher who visited his school, his progress had slowed and his interest in the guitar was waning .
What a breath of fresh air. ! John is so welcoming , his knowledge and skill is impressive and the enthusiasm he brings to his teaching is infectious .
James looks forward to his lessons and is playing material which John chooses with him to be both enjoyable and challenging to improve his ability , this improvement has been impressive and has already been noticed by his school music staff.
From the experience I have had , I would recommend John as a guitar teacher to anyone , as he offers an enjoyable learning plan tailored to your ability whilst offering the best value for money.
